Origin PC announced the availability of its newly-designed Chronos mini-ITX custom gaming computer.
Origin PC will no longer offer multiple cases for its Chronos-branded mini-ITX gaming PCs. The company formerly gave customers a choice of several small form factor cases, such as a Corsair 250D, an EVGA Hadron or a Silverston SG08 chassis. The new Chronos SFF case is now the only mini-ITX gaming system you can get from Origin PC.
The Chronos is slightly less customizable as a result of the change, but the newly-designed SFF chassis can be configured with plenty of high-performance parts. The capacity to hold both a 120 mm CPU water cooler and up to an Nvidia GeForce GTX Titan Z gives the new Chronos chassis just as much credibility as any of the formerly available cases in the lineup. In addition, it can be custom painted for even more personalization.
A window prominently displays your chosen graphics card, magnetic feet allow you to position the PC in any orientation you desire, and an illuminated rotating logo give the Origin PC-branded Chronos some unique aesthetic features. The Chronos finds a happy medium between simplicity and elegance, without some of the flashier characteristics seen in other custom mini-ITX PCs (unless you really want that hot-pink metallic custom finish).
You can customize your own Chronos at Origin PC’s website.
