CES 2015: Spying Digital Storm's Stunning Aventum 3 PC

A killer system that's pre-wired for liquid cooling

Liquid cooling isn't new by any means -- enthusiasts have been cooling their PCs with water since around the discovery of fire (give or take a few years). But what makes Digital Storm's new Aventum 3 system a different kind of beast is how the liquid cooling setup is implemented. It's pre-wired and configured to allow for easy user upgrades without mucking up the intricate installation. Let's have a closer look.
Online Managing Editor and shark wrestler Jimmy Thang steam rolled his way into Digital Storm's suite at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to give you an up close and personal view of the Aventum 3. According to Digital Storm, it's the only PC with a liquid cooling and power distribution system built into the chassis -- the cooling loop is inside the system, allowing customers to connect their own components and perform upgrades. Everything is pre-wired behind the chassis, giving it a bit of a plug-and-play characteristic.
The Aventum 3 is a big case, though not quite as big as the Aventum 2 that earned itself a 9 verdict and Kickass award when we reviewed it last year. And of course it's also customizable, including the tubing -- you can choose from regular, acrylic, or copper tubing.
Pricing will start at around $3,000 for an Aventum 3 when it becomes available in the Spring.
