With all the fires Samsung is currently fighting, it perhaps comes as no surprise it
has decided to quietly unveil its latest launch - a compact modular desktop PC
called the ArtPC Pulse. There is no denying the fact that desktop PCs have faced
a decline in demand over last few years. Moreover, PC users have now started
showing interest in assembling their own PCs using components of their choice.
These reasons have forced desktop PC manufacturers to come out with modular
PCs that allow users to customise components of their build as per their wish.
And the latest to join this list is Samsung.

customise their unit with the help of expansion modules. In its Amazon listing of
the product, the company has mentioned that an optional 1TB HDD module is
available separately for the PC.
