Barebone PC
The ARCTIC MC001 has more to offer than a PC or a multi-media streamer – it's a refined entertainment center which combines both devices. With MC001, you can spice up your leisure time with movies, music, TV and radio programs and enjoy all sorts of web-based activities ranging from checking emails, reading news, shopping online, social networking and many more. Be inspired by the possibilities that an MC001 offers for your digital home.
Passive-Cooling System for Complete Silence
ARCTIC MC001 is passively cooled without fans running inside to enable silent operation while maintaining the hardware at optimal temperature. Even operating in the most noise-sensitive environments, either the living room or bedroom, it won't be heard.
Performance at Low Power Consumption
ARCTIC MC001 is one of the most energy-saving home entertainment systems in the market so that you can turn it on 24/7 without burning unnecessary power. In essence, the 64 bit Dual Core CPU (Atom D525) in combination with 4GB DDR3 RAM (3.25 GB operating system, 0.75 GB RAMDisk) and 80 cores from the DirectX 11 GPU (ATI 5430, 512 MB GDDR3) offer your applications the performance needed at the lowest possible power consumption. The 32-bit Windows consumes fewer resources and offers lower loading time than its 64 bit counterpart while performing at the same level for most applications. Moreover, thanks to a special software, the RAM above 3.25 GB is used by Windows as a cache.
The ATI Stream Technology allows applications like Internet browsers or media players to use also the GPU and thus improves the performance significantly.
The built-in SSD (Solid State Disk) has significantly lower power consumption than regular hard drives. As the SSD is flash-based, it means very short access time when reading data and therefore works faster than usual hard drives. Since there are no mechanical parts, an SSD operates completely silent. Compared to a conventional hard disk, the SSD is more robust and doesn't break as easily if falling.
Living Room Design
The unique design makes the MC001 a true living room accessory. Designed in a sleek 1.5L aluminum chassis with a thickness of merely 4 cm, this compact system fits elegantly in any living room.
