    Conquer the Heat, Conquer All


    In order to achieve ultimate stability, the CG8890 is engineered to provide the best thermal solution during any gaming sessions. The chassis automatically opens its top and side doors in Turbo Gear mode to reveal its robust crimson fans so as to exhaust hot air and redirect cool air into the system, thus extending the lifespan of components inside.
