INTRODUCTION
Inspired by the slim tower workstations of the OEMs, the CG7 Cravo
turns the concept into an accessible format that can be customizable to
your specific workload.
The CG7 is an compact case with great CPU cooling capabilities for
its size. Aimed at visual professionals and artists, this slim tower have
direct air intake on CPU, GPU and PSU making it ideal for constant
heavy load. Support for low profile GPUs makes it compatible with most
entry level workstation cards as well as mid range gaming cards.
The CG7 is a duo layout case that is easily adapted to slim micro
atx motherboard. This layout allows for multiple low profile PCI cards
as well as extra ram, useful for a wide range of workloads in a very
compact package.
Last but not least, the CG7 is a very home/office friendly pc case,
with a subtle look to match your environment.
