Gorilla Rigs November with Razer!

Games Computers

Add a comment By Andi

Another month, another epic team-up between our Gorilla Gaming Rigs and another titan in the gaming world. This month we've got Razer by our side with some awesome goodies to go with every rig, as well as an epic prize pack for one lucky Gorilla Rigs customer!

Let's see what's up for grabs…

For starters, every Gorilla Rig ordered in November will ship with a Razer Goliathus Control Edition Mouse Mat for precise response to your movements.

Of course, nothing goes better with a Razer Mousepad than a Razer mouse, wouldn't you agree? We thought so, so we've got the Razer Naga 2014 Edition so you'll be set for anything from MMOs to RTSs and everything in between. The 12 customizable buttons puts all your macro commands right under your thumb!

Our latest Silverback is looking better than ever in the new Corsair 780T Chassis with GTX 980 Graphics while the new Orangutan shattered performance barriers with a blazing Crossfire R9 270X setup :)

Keep your Cool with Water Cooling!

Computers

Add a comment By Andi

We Mighty Ape monkeys like to play, and when it comes to custom gaming rigs, we play hard.

Nothing says this more than the latest Gorilla in the Mist which pushed the hardware so far we had to install over $1000 worth of water cooling to keep temperatures and acoustics down. Which let us enjoy a spot of 4K gaming.

Of course, we're all about showing off, so we figured we'd give you all a run down of the main components and how we cooled them to give you a bit of inspiration for your own rigs…

The Mighty Kong Returns!

The Mighty Kong is back, more powerful than ever before and is making a victorious return to our Gorilla Rigs range with the HOTTEST HARDWARE IN THE WORLD TODAY!!!

You might think that's a bold claim to make, but once you take a look under the hood, you'll see exactly why we can boast such a thing…

We'll be the first to admit we may have gone a little over overboard, but when you look at all the that tech, we bet you'll find a goofy grin on your face. We'd know, it's been on ours since the parts for our Mighty Kong arrived!

Gorilla Gaming Rigs: The Gorilla in the Mist

Computers

1 comment By Andi

We've talked about a number of our Mighty Gorilla Gaming Rigs here recently, showing off our latest builds of The Baboon and The Silverback, but one we always have trouble showing off is the Gorilla in the Mist. He's an elusive rig, that one.

Of course, the problem resides in the fact that technically it doesn't exist. Well… not until you say it does.

You see, the Gorilla in the Mist is our Gorilla Rig that you guys build for us. It could be a simple tweak to one of our pre-existing rigs, or a complete “From the Ground Up” custom assembly. It's really your call.

We certainly have our favourites amongst these builds, indeed those spec'd out for pure raw power are impressive to benchmark but we tend to lean towards those more like this one. With a perfect balance of unstoppable power and truly stunning component decisions…

Our Little Monkey is a long running favourite, packing a mighty punch for such a little Gaming Rig and thanks to our friends from Asus, WD & G.Skill things just got a little more MIGHTY!

Looking fierce in the Cooler Master K380 gaming chassis with a blazing red PCB on the new R7 250 from Asus with GDDR5 graphics memory our little monkey features an awesome AMD black edition Quad Core unlocked APU with faster 1866MHZ G.SKill Gaming Ram and the fastest Gigabyte AC Wifi + Bluetooth 4.0 + a massive 1TB WD hard drive for storing everything!
