This PC features an [Intel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comet-mk2) Core i9-13900KS, the company's strongest CPU handpicked from its best silicon, and the [NVIDIA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atomman-g7-ti) [GeForce RTX 4090](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alienware-aurora-1), the current strongest graphics card available on the market. These components are attached to an ASUS Z790 stable motherboard with excellent thermals. The entire PC features a custom hardloop cooling system to keep temperatures down even under full load. Additionally, the PC has been carefully overclocked to deliver the best performance possible without compromising on stability, verified by the overclocking experts at OCUK. In its default configuration the 8Pack Asteroid MK2 comes with a mirror finish, but the company can customize the case material and finish upon request, as this is a highly premium product. Customers can pick up the Asteroid MK2 for £10,888.88, or roughly $13,466 USD.
