Shouldn't your gaming rig look as awesome on the outside as the sheer power it holds inside? This basic question has led to a cottage industry of gaming rig manufacturers and modifiers that specializes in tricked-out designs. CyberPower has taken the gaming aesthetic and cranked it up to unheard-of levels with the new Trinity, part of its Fang gaming desktop lineup. Looking like something straight out of a sci-fi film, the Trinity has a tri-section design that defies the boxy look of average PCs.
The three sections house all the components you'd expect to find in a full ITX chassis, with pre-wired connections between the three sections. The shrouded design pipes are threaded through the chassis from front to back for efficient cooling. The first section houses the motherboard, CPU, and 120mm liquid cooling system; the second holds the graphics card and up to three 2.5-inch drives; while the third contains the systems power supply, optical drive, and any additional drives. Want more graphics power? Ditch the optical drive and you can fit a second full-length GPU in the third section.
The steel construction makes the Trinity sturdy, yet heavy. The full system weighs a massive 55 pounds, but it can be set either down on two spokes or up on just one with the included foot attached.
The model displayed at CES is configured with a potent Intel Core i7-4790K processor, an EVGA model Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 graphics card, and three 512GB solid-state drives (SSDs). CyberPower will offer the Trinity in dozens of configurations when the system hits the market this spring. Pricing is not yet available.
