Key 3 Spirit
As the illustration of 3-D graphics, multimedia, and gaming requirements become more intense, PC performance is becoming more demanding. For that matter, other than the performance of CPU & graphic card, consumers are starting to pay closer attention to the overall integration of the system which requires advanced solutions for Case, Cooler and Power Supply. These three elements play key roles in reducing system noise and increasing system performance with superb thermal management. Thermaltake is the first in the world to introduce the integration of Case, Cooler, and Power Supply with “Key 3 Spirit” concept which directly communicates to consumers, and aims at emphasizing the “Quality”, “Performance”, and “Reliability” design of Thermaltake products that drive the rapid increase in performance, which in turn helps systems run fasted, quieter, and more reliably.
