iBUYPOWER shows off the compact Revolt PC

Legit Reviews was at iBUYPOWER's press event at CES 2013 and got to see Revolt, a new custom designed gaming PC. The system has a custom motherboard, video cards that are turned 90 degrees and a power supply that is 37 percent shorter than average.

This radical redesign results in a case that's just 4" wide and 16" tall, yet capable of cramming in a 140mm radiator for liquid cooling. Revolt will be offered in three models, all with Intel processors and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 600 series graphics cards. It will start shipping in February at price points of $649, $899 and $1,399. The most expensive model features an Intel Core i7 3770K processor, an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 graphics card and a SSD (storage capacity isn't mentioned).

Announcing a revolutionary new gaming experience: the Revolt. Designed to combat the stale black and beige box image of desktop PCs, the Revolt combines radical chassis design and re-engineered internal components to create the most exciting PC gaming experience in existence. “We didn’t look to the industry for inspiration when we were developing Revolt. What we looked for was the burning question of, what would we like to have on our own desks? We wanted to shake up the industry and make something beautiful. This is what Revolt is,” said Darren Su, Co-Founder and VP of iBUYPOWER.
