These gaming beasts can be artistically customized with specially selected art including street art, photography, PC game artwork (such as that of GRAW 2) and many other licensed images. The Commodore Gaming PCs also have two multicolored LED lights inside the fans that can be independently controlled to change or enhance the mood with an ambient glow. There is also a new Ice Cube cooling system, which provides extreme levels of cooling and reduces the core temperature by up to seven degrees and thereby ensuring optimum efficiency.
Commodore will debut the gaming PCs at the CeBIT 2007. They have not released any price details. Let’s hope they introduce these mean machines in India too, as India is pre-dominantly a PC gaming country and most PC gamers would love to have these PCs.
