Creator-Backed Gaming PCs

Maingear Partners with Shroud to Design a New Custom Gaming PC

— November 22, 2022 — Tech
Shroud, a popular content creator specializing in VALORANT gameplay, has debuted his own PC with the help of Maingear. The Maingear firm recently unveiled the "first full 3D product configurator," a new desktop resulting from the Shroud partnership, and a new brand logo. The 3D Product Configurator enables you to see a 3D model before allowing them to charge your credit card for a prebuilt gaming system. Shroud has also been announced as a significant stakeholder in the Maingear company. The PC spotlights a magnetic hot-swappable light-up front panel that can be customized with the owner's imagery.

“Shroud’s experience enables him to provide key insight on strategic and business considerations such as component selection, marketing initiatives, community building, as well as retail and ecommerce experiences,” the company was quoted as saying in a press release.
