A closer look at HFX MONSTER






Superlatives are inadequate to describe this incredible piece of Austrian hardware. The HFX Monster is the sole heat sink case that handles not only CPUs like the i7 4770K, but graphics cards as well (GeForce GT 640, FirePro 2270 / 2460 options available).

At 50lbs (23kg) this tank of a HTPC doubles as a solid workstation. Default configuration starts at $2,600 but we added 4TB of Samsung SSDs (in our dreams) for a grand total of $5,500. Pure. Luxury.

✓ i7-4770K (i3-4130T / i5 4570S / i5 4670K / i7 4770S options)
✓ 8GB Kingston DDR3 1600 (up to 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1866)
✓ 180GB Intel 530 SSD (4TB Samsung 840 Evo SSD, 16TB Western Digital HDD options)
