The WINDFORCE cooling system offers exceptional thermal performance through a combination of state-of-the-art technologies. It features server-grade thermally conductive gel, innovative Hawk fans with alternating rotation, copper composite heat pipes, a large vapour chamber, active 3D fans and screen cooling.
The rear panel is inspired by water and its waves are reminiscent of flowing water. Mirrored, matt and light-coloured elements reflect the shimmering surface of the water. The metal finish refines the texture, while blue-green and iridescent colours accentuate the calm lake. The rotation of the fan creates spreading waves that give the details a natural movement.
