MSI Begins Shipping Its Vortex Gaming Rig

If you’re looking for a gaming rig, there are plenty of brands to choose from, but if you’re looking for something a little more unique in terms of design, MSI’s Vortex might be of interest to you, and the good news is that the computer is now ready for shipping so if you like what you see and have the cash to splash, why not?

We should point out that the MSI Vortex was announced earlier this year at CES 2016 in January, but it is only now available for purchase and going out to customers. As you can see in the photo above, the computer certainly sports a very unique design as far as gaming rigs are concerned, and to a certain extent we can’t help but draw comparisons to the Mac Pro by Apple.

In terms of specs, the computer will be configurable and users can select up to Intel’s latest 6th-gen Core i7 processor. They can also opt to go with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 GPU, up to 32GB of RAM, dual 128TB SSDs and a 1TB HDD, and it will also sport a unique cooling system with a rotating column airflow. There is also Nahimic Sound Technology, USB Type-C reversible plug, and more.

Unfortunately the MSI Vortex won’t come cheap. The model with 16GB of RAM will cost $2,199 and will sport dual GeForce GTX 960 GPUs, while the 32GB RAM model with dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980s will go for $3,999.
