"...four Special Color Editions of its Mek Mini systems, with cases in green, white, grey, and red. So for this year's Computex, ZOTAC showcased a pink version of its Mek Mini, to complete their rainbow lineup."
The only two colors out of that lineup that are actually part of the rainbow are red and green. We could debate whether orange should be considered distinct from red and yellow, or whether a distinction needs to be drawn between blue (a.k.a. cyan) and indigo (a.k.a. the blue of RGB), but since pink is a mix of red and blue, it is unambiguously a non-spectral color.
Pink at full saturation is magenta, a non-spectral color produced by red and blue light mixed together. Pink is not usually thought of as being at full saturation, so you are correct to the extent that it is a mix of magenta and white.
Despite Donut's many objections, his pink armor is, at best, light magenta, not light red.
Disappointing choice of CPU. Essentially zero upgrade path, poor forward-looking performance and filled with vulnerabilities. These would have been great with 2600 or 2600X in them, for likely less money.
There's nothing wrong with them. They're Qualcomm Atheros. This old junk meme needs to die in a fire. The only difference with Killer NICs is that they have router-like function included via software. That's all.
You're not well-informed enough to make a claim about the quality of Rivet's pointless shovelware if you still believe they are currently rebranding Qualcomm adapters.
Yeah, if you don't leave your basement and it happens to work with your wifi access point, great. If you travel anywhere and/or switch to various unknown wifi sources, good luck.
Well thank goodness you're here to rescue all of Anandtech's readers and Zotac by insisting you claim of color combination can be universally applied to girls. I'm glad you know what's best for an entire gender.

Or, ya know, he could mean it in the colloquial way that it is just a bunch of any colors.Smell This - Monday, June 24, 2019 - link
I'm thinking the red/black out-sells all other *special color editions* combined, and Zotac is generally clue-less ...

In what universe is pink a mix of red and blue? It's a mix of red and white.Old_Fogie_Late_Bloomer - Sunday, June 23, 2019 - link

Rainbow per my 4 years old (target demographic of this case): more than 3 colors, literally any color combination qualifies.AshlayW - Friday, June 21, 2019 - link

Yeah, that's a 65W CPU in a fairly small case. Combined with the GPU, it might get rather warm inside one of those systems.PeachNCream - Friday, June 21, 2019 - link
Stupid Killer NICs. Those can do die in a fire.CheapSushi - Saturday, June 22, 2019 - link

Have a Killer NIC in my XPS 15, did a fresh install of Windows and didn't install the Killer software. Never given me any problemsQasar - Monday, June 24, 2019 - link

Zotac need to ask artists before making colors choices.black and Pink dont go together at all.
White and Pink is the best for girls.

Looks like something Alienware would have done... a few years ago.Surfacround - Wednesday, June 26, 2019 - link
