Origin PC Chronos Desktop: Bigger Doesn’t Mean Better

Introduction 
There is a popular thought that large physical dimensions are a sign of a powerful gaming PC. The extended desktop towers with unbelievable exteriors meant the presence of serious equipment inside. But nowadays, everything has changed. Have a look at Origin PC Chronos Desktop.
 
 
Packaging and Design
The model is available in two color variations: black with red elements and vice versa. The chassis can be oriented horizontally or vertically, and the front Origin PC logo can be turned whichever way your prefer.
 
The novelty is made in the case of SFF (small form factor), which means fairly compact dimensions - 298.5 x 101.6 x 394.3 mm. But at the same time it has a very efficient electronic stuffing.
 
The Origin PC Chronos comes with a branded t-shirt and a card box filled with all necessary stuff and instructions (including the power cable and Wifi antennas).
You are to pay attention that besides the high cost you need to pay $20 more for the red LED light but only if you wish of course.
 
The Chronos doesn’t have any software (trial or full version), but the company installed additional EVGA Precision X for overclocking the graphics card (for an added $50).
 
 
Close View
Don’t pay attention that some of the most powerful gaming systems are still in huge cases with an extensive tower. An increasing number of decorated desktop computers are on the opposite way. One of the best examples of this is the Chronos line from Origin PC.
Chronos systems start with just under $ 1200 for a configuration that combines an Intel Core i3-7350K processor with a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. There are several options for updating in all directions, including the processor, graphics processor, motherboard, RAM and storage. The most limited category is the power source, due to the size of the system.
 
As with all Origin PC systems, the customer can choose which components will be part of his or her computer. Chronos can be based on one of the two mini-ITX motherboards: Gigabyte Z170N-Gaming 5 with the Intel Z170 chipset or ASRock X99E-ITX / AC / USB 3.1 chipset on the Intel X99 chipset.
 
In the first case, you can choose one of the quad-core Intel Skylake processors: Core i5 6500, Core i5 6600K, Core i7 6700 or Core i7 6700K. In the second - six-core Intel Core i7 5820K and Core i7 5930K, or eight-core Intel Extreme Core i7 5960X. The amount of RAM DDR4 can be from 8 to 32 GB, with a frequency of up to 3000 MHz. A large selection of video cards is also available: from NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 and AMD Radeon R9 380 to GeForce GTX Titan X and Radeon R9 Nano
 
Performance is mainly determined by your budget, and not by the limitations of the user's native PC chassis. To demonstrate the potential of its Chronos, Origin PC introduced a configuration suitable for 4K games, combining the overclocking Intel Core i7-7700K processor with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition graphics card and 32GB of DDR4-2666 memory.
 
Origin PC also does not save on storage. Installed solid-state drive Samsung 960 Pro NVMe 512-GB, which is included in the bus PCIe. And it manages loads on the OS, and the hard drive 4TB Western Digital Caviar Black takes care of the overflow. And if all that was not enough, Origin PC installed an independent liquid cooling.
 
This does not mean that there are no shortcomings in miniature PCs like this, they are present of course: cost and noise. The device we are looking at will cost almost $ 2500 on the average.
 
 Origin PC offers two variants of the SFX series from Silverstone, including 450 watts and more than 600 watts for more powerful graphics cards, culminating in the Titan Xp.
 
At the other end of the spectrum there is a reliable choice of drives. Origin PC allows buyers to choose from a wide range of storage options and types of saving, including standard 2.5-inch SSDs, M.2 SSDs and 3.5-inch mechanical hard drives. And for added performance, Origin PC will also install the Intel Optane disc on compatible configurations.
 
For the heat dissipation from the processor in the Origin PC Chronos, the liquid cooling system Origin Frostbyte 120 is responsible. To power the system, power supplies with a capacity from 450 to 850 W can be used. 3.5-inch hard disks of up to 8 terabytes in size, 2.5-inch and M.2 solid-state drives with a capacity of up to 2 TB can be installed to store data. The total disk subsystem can include up to three devices. It is also possible to install an optical drive DVD or Blu-ray.
 
External sound cards, headphone amplifiers and Wi-Fi adapters are available as options. Origin PC Chronos works on the operating system Windows 10 (Home or Pro)
