Maingear at CES 2025

Apex Force

The Apex Force features a full-tower chassis design based on the popular Phanteks NV9, concealed rear external cable management, and panoramic tempered glass panels trimmed with a diffused illuminated edge, that maximizes the premium aesthetics of the Force. Inside, it's immediately noticeable that Maingear spent countless hours precisely engineering the APEX hardline cooling system with 10-degree offset tubing to perfectly mate with the chassis' unique design language, making the Force a masterpiece of functional design and engineering. Upgradable RGB lighting accentuates the cooling components and premium hardware perfectly. Beyond the jaw-dropping aesthetics, it offers unparalleled CPU and GPU cooling with dual 420mm ultra-thick (60mm) radiators, each topped with three 140mm thick (30mm) fans that far surpass the cooling requirements of this sleek desktop's demanding components. Designed for high-fidelity gaming, the Force keeps its cool but packs serious heat. Customers can opt for the latest and highest-performance CPUs from Intel and AMD, as well as the latest and highest-tier NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPUs.

With 65mm of bottom intake clearance, the Force's vertical airflow system maintains cooler temperatures and quiet performance, utilizing the GPU loop to draw in cool air through the lower radiator and efficiently purging heat from the system through the CPU loop's upper radiator. Regular cooling maintenance and pump replacement are simplified with Apex Force's redesigned quick-disconnect drain ports and pump locations, each accessible by removing a single panel. Customization options are extensive, with various coolant colors per loop, tubing materials, fittings, and cable sleeving colors, ensuring your system is uniquely yours. Supporting MG-RC rear connection motherboards, the Force eliminates visible motherboard cables for a clean, minimalist look. High-performance components like ultra-high-speed DDR5 memory and Gen4 NVMe SSDs ensure lightning-fast load times and low latency. Precision optimization balances airflow and pressure for whisper-quiet acoustics with a bloatware-free operating system tailored for peak performance out of the box.
