Popular PC vendor Maingear has today debuted a brand new line-up of extremely potent performance PCs with an eye-watering price tag to match. New this week are the Apex Force and Apex Rush models, starting at a cool $7,469/$6,259 respectively.
First up is the new Apex Force, a full-tower chassis housed inside the Phanteks NV9 case. Maingear touts a dual-loop hardline cooling system with offset tubing, upgradable RGB, and more. Support for dual 420mm radiators with three 140mm fans keeps everything cool, which is important given the components on offer.

All of that will set you back a cool $7,469, but that’s just the starting price, with upgrade options for beefier processor, GPU, RAM, and storage likely to run you more.
The new Apex Rush is cheaper (relatively speaking), starting at just $6,259. The dual-chamber mid-tower has panoramic tempered glass, and customization for water cooling with options for hard and soft tubing. Cooling is less prolific at just dual 360mm radiators with six 120mm fans. There are also screwless panels for the cooling system to make draining and filling easier.
