Specifications / Chassis

   

The AK Rig Super9 is the most powerful gaming PC based on the Haswell platform, that you can find at AK Informatica, which is based in Italy.
The CM Storm Trooper case measures 578 x 250 x 650 mm with a total weight of 13 kg (about 20 kg with all components inside), and it's made of solid high quality steel. As you can guess from the size, the CM Storm Trooper is anything but small and it allows the installation of almost any component available these days. The case is characterized by sharp lines and edges and there are no less than nine 5.25" slots covered with a black mesh. In order to make it easier to carry this system around, there is a practical handle with rubber coatign on top of the case. The handle has been integrated into the main structure of the case, which means it's almost impossible to break it. Regarding the I/O connectors there are two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, one eSATA port and two standard audio jacks. The cooling of the components is being handled by 120mm and 140mm fans placed at almost any spot available.

Regarding the components inside the case, we find a MSI Z97 Gaming 9 ACK motherboard which has all of the most common features including both WiFi and Bluetooth. Combined with the motherboard we have a i7-4790K CPU cooled by a Cooler Master Nepton 280L. A closer look at the memory reveals that there are premium products in the AK Rig Super9. To achieve great looks AK Informatica is using 4 sticks of Avexir Dragon with red LEDs. These sticks make this rig look very nice. In the graphics department we find a powerful GTX 980 MSI Gaming 4G and the power comes from a Cooler Master V750 PSU. Regarding storage there is one Kingston Hyperx Fury 240GB SSD and a Western Digital Black 1TB drive.
