In China, there must be many people who have never heard of Digital Storm, a company that started as a distributor of computer accessories and is now known as one of the most innovative elite gaming computer manufacturers in the industry, mainly providing complete computer solutions for DIY enthusiasts.
Although it is not well-known in China, Digital Storm has grown every year since its creation in 2002 with excellent product quality and excellent customer service, and the unique Cryo-TEC liquid cooling system, which can be installed on almost all custom Digital Storm game consoles, can cool the CPU below 0°C, while ensuring that the CPU will not be damaged due to sudden temperature drops.
Digital Storm has received the highest A rating from the Better Business Bureau (BBB) for more than 10 years, and has also performed well in numerous media reviews, winning the "Kick Ass" award for Maximum PC, the "Silver Editor's Choice" for Anandtech.com, and the "Silver Editor's Choice" for PC Perspective's "Gold Award" and other awards.
Compared with brands such as Gamer Republic and Aliens, the biggest feature of Digital Storm is that it is highly customizable, in addition to the configuration, such as case color, paint, etc., can be freely customized, and even the nickel-plated copper pipes for heat dissipation are handmade for each computer, and will undergo at least 2 stress tests before leaving the factory, and the stability of operation can be guaranteed. Because there is also a designer service, it is currently only available in the US market.
Digital Storm currently has a total of 6 models on sale, which is the most among desktop computer manufacturers, roughly from high to low: Aventum, Bolt, Slade/Velox/Lumos, and Vanquish.
The Aventum is the only full-tower chassis model, and its positioning is similar to Falcon Northwest's Mach V series, both of which are full-tower models, and their size and weight are not small, but relatively speaking, the Aventum is a little bigger than the Mach V, and the expansion performance is also better, supporting up to 4 graphics cards, which Digitaltrends calls "the show-off of modern PC hardware" and has been awarded Tom's Hardware 2015 Readers' Choice Award, but again, the starting price of $3,686 is a lot higher than the Mach V's $2,800, which can be considered by users who are looking for extreme performance.
Bolt is the only miniaturized host, starting at nearly $1800, second only to the flagship series, although officially defined as a mini host, but from the point of view of the body size, it is more like a compact mid-tower model, 39*15*51 cm is also small in a gaming desktop computer, but the performance is unambiguous, PCmag evaluates it as "a small gaming desktop computer with a beautiful appearance and a good design", but the scalability is poor, and it only supports 1 graphics card.
Slade/ Velox/ Lumos are all mid-tower models, the three are mainly different in the appearance of the chassis, and the rest of the aspects, including the size of the chassis, configuration and price, are very close, and the support platform is also completely the same, not much different from each other, and can be purchased according to the actual needs according to the appearance; Vanquish is the entry-level model, although it is also a mid-tower chassis, the platform choice is relatively small, only supports Z370/A320/B350 chipset motherboard, single graphics card, the minimum configuration is only $699, more suitable for cost-effective users.
Similar to Falcon Northwest's situation in China, Digital Storm's main markets are in Europe and the United States, and domestic purchase and after-sales are more troublesome, so it is more suitable for professional users who have a better understanding of PC hardware.
