March 29, 2017 by Katrina Filippidis

Gaming and chill.

MSI’s award-winning gaming PC Trident 3 will be getting a limited edition ‘Arctic’ makeover in addition to a massive performance upgrade, it has emerged. The icy, white colour scheme isn’t just for show, it’s being supported by the Silent Storm Cooling 2 system which individually cools heat-generating hardware via separate chambers, guaranteeing a smooth, immersive gaming experience free of interruptions.

Speaking of immersion, the Trident 3 Arctic comes loaded with an Intel® Core™ i7 processor combined with a GeForce® GTX 1070 graphics card, making it very well optimised for VR gaming.
