Gelid GC Extreme thermal upgrade

HIDevolution replaces the stock thermal compound with Gelid GC Extreme on both CPU and GPU to lower peak temperatures and reduce throttling during sustained workloads. The upgrade is worth it when you regularly run long renders, compile large codebases, or play extended sessions at maximum settings. The BTO service includes full burn-in and BIOS validation before shipment.

128 GB DDR5 5600 dual-channel memory

The system arrives with 128 GB configured as two 64 GB modules running at 5600 MHz, leaving no free slots for further expansion. Verify that your workflows actually benefit from this capacity before ordering. Storage is provided by two 4 TB PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe drives in M.2 form factor; confirm your external backup strategy can handle 8 TB of data.
