Using our own Cryo Boost™ Triple Overclocking & Optimisation we can give you a PC now that's up to two or three years ahead of current technology in terms of running speeds. This way you keep silky smooth graphics, sub-second loading times, crystal clear sound and flowing lifelike animation. So when you next take a look newest version of Crysis, Call of Duty or Age of Conan and your current PC starts puffing and panting imagine what a Cryo upgrade will do for you. If gaming is not your priority or your looking for something a little different take a look at our Bespoke Collection. Serious kit for total gamers (around £800 to £1200):"“And it is not always good to be healed in body. Nor is it always evil to die in battle, even in bitter pain. Were I permitted, in this dark hour I would choose the latter.”", J. R. R. Tolkien | Cryo Taurus | Cryo Rapier | Cryo Pico XS  | 
| 
| 
| Always wished you could have a high performance PC but don't have the room for it? Or need to lug it around LAN events? The Taurus is a gaming revision of our Nano bespoke build optimised for gaming but designed to deliver no compromise performance for its diminutive size. The Taurus defines the Wolf in Sheep's clothing.
| Need to smoke the opposition without simultaneously torching the bank account. The Rapier dual core gobbles up the frames while leaving your wallet intact. Since some of the most popular games on the planet still use no more than one or two cores the dual core i3 can give you all you need.
| Even smaller than the popular Nano and Taurus this mini-ITX case is tiny and yet can still pack the punch of a full size desktop when filled with a high spec CPU, full length graphics card, performance memory with the Cryo Boost™ Triple Overclocking and Optimisation as the icing on the cake.

Strictly hardcore gamers, flat-out fast rigs (around £1200 to £3500):“In a battle all you need to make you fight is a little hot blood and the knowledge that it's more dangerous to lose than to win.”, George Bernard Shaw | Cryo Helix | Cryo Nemesis | Cryo Hydro Nemesis |

| 
| Winning can be as much about looking like a winner and the Xaser VI case's striking and ultra modern looks certainly grab the eye. While at its heart a thumping i5 Quad core and the best of the current GPU crop with the ATI HD5870 will ensure a lag free fragfest.
| If you need the best and nothing else will do then Core i7 with triple channel bandwidth memory and four cores with another four HyperThreads is for you. All matched with the best single GPU money can buy in the form of the nVidia GTX 480.
| Ultra performance needs ultra cooling technology. The Hydro Nemesis uses a full on high flow water cooling system on both the the best graphics card and CPU combinations available so both can be pushed to the very edge of the performance enveloped. No hesitation...no pauses...instant reactions...nothing to challenge it.

World of Warcraft † - As WoW is an MMO testing its FPS is not trivial. If you stand alone in a quiet place of an old zone you will get great frame rates out of a low spec machine, however, in the middle of a raid with lots going on and the latest graphics it will grind to a halt becoming unplayable. What we've done is looked at average frame rates across some key areas that most people encounter at all levels including Battle Grounds (Warsong Gulch (WSG), Arathi Basin (AB)), 25 man raids of IceCrown Citadel (Lich King, ICC end zone) and just running through Dalaran. This is a 'worst case' test so you should find in most situations your frame rates well exceed what we have benchmarked. WoW has an aging graphics engine and doesn't take good advantage of Crossfire/SLI or multi core processors, we anticipate one day it will.
