Sharaf DG, a leading electronics retailer in Dubai, has launched the ‘Annihilator’, claimed to be the world’s fastest PC.

The computer is built by focusing on fastest, latest and extreme editions of the PC Series keeping in mind the region’s PC enthusiasts and hardcore gamers, said a spokesman.

“The new Annihilator PC will take the lead in making Dubai a launch pad for all future fastest PCs in the world and will compete with world class brands to maintain its position as the first fastest PC in the market designed using the fastest PC components available and deliver to do exactly what its name suggests – annihilate the competition,” he said.

The Annihilator runs on Intel Core 2 Extreme Quad-Core QX9650 processor running at a clock speed of 3.0-Ghz, and accompanies two NVIDIA GeForce  9800GTX graphics cards in SLI mode, for the extra  “boom” and “crash” in today’s game titles. The Annihilator’s high-end configuration helps ensure even faster and smoother performance when running the latest games and other demanding applications independently or simultaneously. The PC also provides a blockbuster performance, which is not matched by any other PC on the market, he said.

Nilesh Khalkho, CEO, Sharaf DG, said: “Sharaf DG aims to be the leader in introducing products that offer customers the latest technology and gadgets. The ‘Annihilator’ is the ultimate dream machine for PC enthusiasts. The idea behind the Annihilator is to provide the best experience for the end-user – whether they are playing games, working on their documents or enjoying the latest movie in high-definition. The PC uses the fastest components available today which have been water-cooled to make them run even faster. It also features two Western Digital Raptor drives set in RAID0 configuration for blazing fast speed as well as a RAID5 array of 1.5TB for the user’s data”.

Khalkho explained that not only speed is important but more so the data. “That is the reason the ‘Annihilator’ uses RAID5 technology for storing the users’ videos, pictures and documents, to ensure that they don’t lose them,” he added. Besides providing the fastest gaming experience and data back-up, the Annihilator also comes equipped with a Blu-Ray optical drive and Creative’s X-Fi Fatal1ty edition sound card, which allows gamers to enjoy the latest High Definition movies in all their audio and video glory.

Meanwhile, multimedia enthusiasts working with applications that depend on threaded computing, such as audio/video editing or 3D modeling, will also see greater performance. In addition, all users will benefit from a quieter and cooler computing environment thanks to the new water-cooled cooling system in the PC, he said.

This Anhilator is available exclusively at Sharaf DG Stores at Deira City Center, Ibn Battuta mall and Times Square Center. – TradeArabia News Service
