šµļø Secret Zero
Strong ground-floor entry point
The Secret Series is our hidden gem ā the most performance per pound we offer. Secret Zero is a special deal where we get modern gaming at an achievable price. Built inside the dual-chamberĀ Phanteks XT V3Ā case, it balances airflow and aesthetics at a price youāll want to keep quiet.
š§¬Built to last, designed to evolve
Every PC36 system is upgradable over time, so your investment grows with your needs. Customers can request tweaks or modifications ā GPU swaps, cooler changes, or even case style swaps ā to make Secret One truly their own.
This PC is based on a DDR4 platform - that means any meaningful CPU upgrade would also require motherboard and RAM upgrades at the same time. However, all other components can be carried forward with upgrades, and we never lock down our systems with proprietary nonsense
