On paper, this is easily one of the most powerful gaming PCs that you can get. It has everything you need to support any AAA title on high graphics settings. Let’s discuss some of the other features of the gaming desktop.
Truly Made for Gaming
When it comes to gaming PCs, it is pretty essential for many gamers that their gaming desktop matches the gaming aesthetics. That is why MSI has ensured that the new MPG Infinite X2 comes with all the gaming aesthetics that one would typically want from their gaming PC.
This CPU cabinet has tempered glass on the side. Just like many other gaming PC cabinets, the transparent glass allows a clear view of the inside, and you will be able to see everything clearly.
The glass is EMI-compliant, and then there is RGB lighting as well. So the cabinet matches the entire gaming aesthetics. Users can customize all the RBG lighting via the MSI Mystic Light software.
Incredible Cooling System
Gaming is easily one of the most demanding tasks you can do on any rig. Because all the components work at their peak capacities, everything gets heated inside the cabinet. So cooling also becomes an essential part of any gaming PC.
So for the new MPG Infinite X2, MSI has employed a new cooling technology which they call Silent Storm Cooling 2. The concept is to keep all the components in separate chambers so that they all get their fair share of powerful airflow.
This improves the cooling performance significantly. Also, an AIO liquid cooler on board takes all the heat from the desktop. So you get good cooling on this system.
Modularity
The thing with the gaming world is that you can never have enough powerful hardware. As the games get more and more demanding, the processors and other components get better as well. So your rig can quickly become outdated.
But with the new MPG Infinite X2, you can easily upgrade all the internal components as it is seamless to remove the tempered glass panel with thumbscrews. So upgrading the components become manageable, and your system never gets outdated.
Pricing and Availability
The availability details of the new MPG Infinite X2 vary from region to region, and the price depends on the configuration you get. However, you can expect a handsome pricetag as it is one of the first gaming desktops with Intel’s latest 13th Gen Core Processor.
