RIOTORO Transforms PCs with Project Morpheus: World’s First Convertible PC Case

(Auszug aus der Pressemitteilung)

Computex 2018, Taipei — June 5, 2018 — California-based RIOTORO® today unveiled Project Morpheus, RIOTORO’s concept PC case, the first chassis that converts to and from a mini-tower to mid-tower. The company also unveiled the Builder Edition 1200W 80 PLUS Gold modular power supply, Quiet Storm RGB 120mm fan kit, and the budget-friendly CR380 mid-tower chassis. RIOTORO is showcasing the new products at Computex Taipei 2018.

Project Morpheus – The World’s First Convertible PC Chassis
For over 35 years, PC performance has evolved dramatically enabling gamers to pack even more horsepower into their monstrous gaming rigs or into even more compact console killers. Other aspects of the PC have failed to keep pace, especially in regards to how PCs are built, designed, and constructed. Not satisfied with the status quo, RIOTORO is committed to evolving PC design to make PCs more unique, customizable, and easier to build. Project Morpheus Concept 1, the first of many RIOTORO design explorations, was created to break the traditional rigid format of PC cases, enabling gamers to evolve their PC along with their changing needs.

Shapeshifting Performance – Two Sizes, One Case
Project Morpheus, the first convertible PC chassis, ends the compromise of mini versus mid-tower without style and performance. Want to preserve vertical real estate? Project Morpheus can be built as short micro-ATX, and when you want to add a second GPU, audio card, or more storage, Morpheus can easily shape-shift into a full-size ATX mid-tower.

Vent Your Aggression While Staying Cool
Desktop gaming PCs run hot, especially when aggressively overclocked. Unfortunately, cooling a hot PC often means loud, especially in smaller PCs. Morpheus is engineered with a streamlined airflow and with nearly the entire exterior perforated mesh to keep your PC’s components running quieter and cooler even in extreme, overclocked gaming configurations. Plenty of easy-to-install cooling options are available thanks to a removal front mount and support for up to seven 120mm fans or two 240mm radiators.

Expandable, Tool-less, Modern
To simplify building, upgrading, and maintaining your system, every aspect of Morpheus has been carefully architected for easy access. The entire chassis requires no tools to build, which combined with the strategically placed cable routing channels, drive trays, and cooling bracket, make building Morpheus a snap. We didn’t forget connectivity: USB 3.0 and USB-C provide high-speed connections for the modern storage and mobile devices.
