Containing a dual core Intel Core i series processor, the SmaQ40 is a high performance system capable of supporting the most power hungry applications.

Utilising a processor integrated Intel HD graphics subsystem, it delivers a rich multimedia experience up to 1080P. HDMI and DVI-I ports allow dual monitor connectivity for the maximum in screen real estate.

And for that totally immersive experience up to 7.1 channel audio can be achieved from the back panel connectors (including S/PDIF).

The speed of the processor fan is controlled by the motherboard ensuring that the fan never goes faster than it needs to to keep the system cool thereby keeping noise to a minimum. Noise is further reduced by replacing the stock Intel processor fan with a quality Akasa part.

With GB wired networking this machine delivers a superb desktop and multimedia experience.

Windows 8, Windows 7 or Ubuntu (or even both in a dual boot configuration) can be installed together with a range of free or pay software. Contact us if you require something we don't list.

You can customise your system with a range of compatible accessories on our easy to use "Your PC Builder" page, or use the "Quick Buy" tab to select a pre-designed system.
