MAINGEAR R1

Your graphics card will have the largest effect on gaming performance, including frame rate, visual fidelity, and effects. Choosing the right graphics card for your MAINGEAR depends on multiple factors including your monitor's resolution and refresh rate, budget, desired features, and the games you play.

Your processor will determine the speed and ability to run various applications and games. A processor's frequency, number of cores, threads, and other features will affect how efficient your PC will be at performing tasks simultaneously. Pairing a high-end graphics card with a low-end processor (or vice versa) can limit your system's total performance in the majority of applications and games. MAINGEAR recommends pairing graphics cards and processors from the same pricing and performance tiers to achieve optimal performance.

Your processor requires sufficient cooling to operate at its peak performance. All of the cooling options below have been thoroughly tested to maintain or exceed industry-standard cooling levels for your processor selection. Upgrading your cooling can prolong processor lifespan, increase performance through overclocking (if available), and add to the aesthetics of your MAINGEAR.
