VRTX Cooling Technology - Now A Family Trait
Introduced with the launch of the SHIFT, this radical re-thinking of cooling a high performance PC has been often imitated but never duplicated with the same finesse and precision. Harnessing the natural behavior of hot air to rise, this vertical heat-stack design exhausts hot air out the top, drawing in fresh, cool air from the bottom. The result is a quieter, cooler, and higher performing design. Coupled with MAINGEAR's EPIC (Enhanced Performance, Innovative Components) line of closed-loop coolers including the world's largest single fan radiator, the EPIC 180, and the EPIC T1000 phase change metal alloy TIM, MAINGEAR desktops equipped with VRTX Cooling Technology deliver a PC experience unlike any other. And now we've extended this technology to other designs in our product portfolio.
