Commodore’s back with kick-ass rigs

March 14, 2007

Commodore has been quiet for some time now, but they’re back with four different models from an entry level gaming PC to an extreme specification model. To be shown at the CeBit 2007 by Commodore Gaming, these rigs can be customized to match personal taste: Commodore is offering specially selected art including street art, photography, PC game artwork (such as that of GRAW 2) and many other licensed images.

The units are called Cg (entry level), Cgs, Cgx, Cxx (extreme level), and each will be running Microsoft Windows Vista, a 64-bit operating system, which includes the new gaming interface: DirectX 10. Two multicoloured LED lights inside the fans can be independently controlled to change or enhance the mood with an ambient glow. For cooling the rig, a new Ice Cube cooling system is present, reducing the core temperature by up to seven degrees.

For peripherals, Commodore is offering a plethora of options from respected gaming brands including Raptor keyboards and Logitech speaker systems. In addition to this, all Commodore Gaming PCs come with a full two year service and parts warranty.
