Peak Performer

摘要

It is always exciting to receive a new workstation from BOXX Technologies. The Austin, Texas-based company has been building computers since 1996 and its systems have consistently delivered peak performance. The APEXX 2 2401 is the first new BOXX workstation we've tested since we reviewed the 3DBOXX 4150 XTREME (deskeng.com/de/?p=1551). Like its predecessor, the BOXX APEXX 2 came housed in a custom-designed aluminum chassis measuring a compact 6.85 x 16.6 × 14.6 in. (W × D × H) and weighed just 18.75 lbs. The case is all black except for a brushed aluminum BOXX logo on the removable front panel and matching logo cutout on the top of the case. As in previous BOXX workstations, the front grille conceals a pair of 4 in. diameter cooling fans and holds a filter to trap dust before it can enter the interior of the case. On the APEXX 2, one of those fans is actually part of the CPU water cooling system.
