The Hammerhead HMR989 from DARWINmachine is a custom, high-performance desktop computer, which is perfect for the hardcore gamer, enthusiast, or for anyone looking for a desktop machine that is “out of the box”. Each chassis is made to order and is hand-built from brushed, anodized aluminum and Ecoresin plastic. The Hammerhead’s rugged aluminum chassis is designed to last as new components can be easily upgraded over time. The computer uses an open-air cooling system that includes the Thermaltake SpinQ CPU cooler, a 2.8GHz Core i7-860 CPU, an nVidia ENGTX460 graphics card, a 4GB of RAM, a 640GB hard drive, a 40GB SSD and the Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
