MAINGEAR Launches ZERO Series Gaming PCs with Hidden Motherboard Cables
Following the resounding success of its ZERO Limited Edition drop, MAINGEAR proudly unveils the ZERO Series, marking a new chapter in ultra-clean gaming PC aesthetics. Embracing the ethos of performance, minimalism, and accessibility, the ZERO Series, starting at $1,399 MSRP, brings MAINGEAR's signature MG-RC technology to a broader audience.
Contributing to the overall design aesthetic of the ZERO Series is MAINGEAR's groundbreaking MG-RC (MAINGEAR Rear Connection) technology, redefining cable management for sleek and efficient system designs. This innovation ensures not only a visually stunning chassis interior, free of motherboard cable clutter but also optimal airflow and simplified upgrades, setting a new standard in PC aesthetics and performance.
The ZERO Series features MSI's MAG Pano M100 PZ MATX chassis that is factory-designed to support MG-RC-equipped motherboards, combining elegance with functionality seamlessly. These PCs are also exclusively equipped with MSI Project Zero motherboards featuring MG-RC rear connectors, and represent a true partnership of leading-edge hardware and design excellence while reinventing the way gaming PCs are manufactured.
Just like MAINGEAR's popular MG-1 and North Series gaming PCs, the ZERO Series provides a diverse selection of pre-configured specifications, catering to every gamer's unique requirements and preferences. Ranging from Silver to Ultimate, each meticulously curated configuration guarantees an unparalleled gaming experience tailored to perfection. Moreover, customers have the flexibility to BOOST their PC orders, doubling the system's RAM and SSD capacity, and upgrading the OS to Windows 11 Pro for enhanced performance. In addition to the pre-configured options, customers can also opt for custom-built ZERO PCs to meet their specific needs.
"ZERO refines the traditional gaming PC, ushering in the next aesthetic era," stated Wallace Santos, CEO of MAINGEAR. "This series represents the perfect harmony of bleeding edge hardware, MAINGEAR's innovative MG-RC discrete cable management, and our relentless quest for sleek, minimalist design. Simply put, these PCs look incredible inside and out, and deliver the best-in-class performance our customers expect and deserve."
Like all MAINGEAR gaming PCs, every component is handpicked and thoroughly tested for maximum compatibility, reliability, and performance. All MAINGEAR PCs are hand-built by MAINGEAR builders in Warren, New Jersey, and undergo rigorous testing and quality assurance checks to uphold MAINGEAR's unparalleled dedication to excellence. Standing behind their products, every MAINGEAR PC is backed by a standard one-year warranty (upgradable to three years) and lifetime access to MAINGEAR's award-winning technical support.

Like RGBLED, I'll tolerate it so long as it doesn't add too much cost, hurt performance, or outright replace the 'regular' version.
1st it was BTF, now this craptastic non-sense....and next will be some garbage like "NSC ("NoSeeCables") or "HAC" (Hide All Cables)
If this keeps up, it will turn out just like USB 3... type xx this, gen xx that, uber-super-ultra yada yada yada....
As well, what are the odds ASUS and Maingear end up joining their standards into the "MCA-RC" or "AMC-RC" standard?
Maingear does not make anything except marketing.
Unless big four MB makers don't agree on skme sort of standard, neither one of them have no future, beside some prebuilds like this.
Maingear patented their version of the rear connection system as MG-RC and was working to push it as a new standard, and eventually got MSI and Gigabyte to sign on to it along with some support from Phanteks and others for cases and peripherals. They might have just been a boutique PC builder and seller, but they managed to get two major mobo makers to commit to its standard.
Meanwhile, ASUS brought out a very similar design under BTF, and got CoolerMaster, Thermaltake, SilverStone, Corsair, and InWin (among others) to sign on to their version of a new design standard and develop cases and peripherals that would capitalize on ASUS' design. In competition to Maingear, there's the fact that Origin PC is now owned by Corsair too, so they too could start pushing ASUS' BTF standard through their boutique shop in the same way.
So now we have 3 of the 4 main consumer oriented mobo makers pushing some version of this new "power connectors at the rear" standard, which are 90% the same externally except for ASUS' version including a high-power connector to power GPUs compared to Maingear's standard. All that's left of the notable brand mobo makers not pushing for rear connections is AsRock, and which one it might start adopting is the question.
