MAINGEAR Apex Force
#8 in Gaming PC · Rated 4.5
Dual-loop, full-tower premium desktop with hardline cooling.
Apex Force is MAINGEAR’s flagship dual-loop liquid-cooled desktop, housed in a Phanteks NV9 chassis. It features a robust dual 420mm radiator cooling layout, expansive tubing and RGB customization, and a build that’s clearly aimed at extreme enthusiasts. The Force line emphasizes high-end performance with premium materials, meticulous cable management, and a broad range of CPU/GPU options. It’s designed for overclocking, sustained gaming at maximum settings, and content creation workloads that demand raw throughput. The trade-off is a very high price and a large physical footprint, which makes it most suitable for dedicated gaming rooms or studios.
