At Computex Taipei 2026, Zotac displayed a prototype mini PC called Galapagos that fits a full-size RTX 5080 graphics card into a compact chassis. The booth also featured a retrospective of the company's 20-year history with past video cards and mini PCs on display.
Zotac's Computex booth this year marked the company's 20th anniversary, and alongside a retrospective of past hardware, the company showed a prototype that drew attention for its unusual approach. The Galapagos mini PC fits a full-size RTX 5080 graphics card into a compact chassis with no modification to the card itself. The result is a small desktop that packs the same GPU power as a standard tower, though Zotac has not announced a release date or pricing for the Galapagos.
The booth also displayed a timeline of Zotac products, including the GeForce 7300 GT, 8800 GTS, 9800 GTX+ Zone Edition, GTX 780 Ti AMP, GTX 1080 Ti Mini, RTX 3090 AMP Extreme Holo, RTX 5090 Solid, and RTX 5090 AMP Extreme. Mini PC models like the Magnus One VR Go, Magnus EN1080 10 Year Anniversary Edition, and MAG ND01 were also present, along with an industrial robot-themed mod PC.
