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.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.
