The Hammerhead HMR98902 is a custom PC created by designer Matthew Kim and has been crafted using “Eco-resin” plastic and machined aluminum plates that have been anodized Blue. This unique combination of materials not only gives the Hammerhead its distinctive look but also emphasizes sustainability and innovation in PC design.
Eco Resin panels are created from waste plastics taken from the fronts of old vending machines and point-of-sale units. These plastics are then recycled to create a clear resin panel, which is both durable and environmentally friendly. Matthew designs and builds each Hammerhead PC himself, tailoring each system to the customer’s requirements. Each system has its own unique serial number, ensuring that no two Hammerhead PCs are exactly alike.
Other Hammerhead Models
Other models in the Hammerhead series include the HMR98903 and HMR98904. These models are available in black brushed anodized carbon and quattro carbon trim, offering a variety of aesthetic options for discerning customers. The black brushed anodized carbon provides a sleek, modern look, while the quattro carbon trim adds a touch of sophistication and elegance. These options ensure that there is a Hammerhead PC to suit every taste and style preference.
Customization and Pricing
If you fancy a custom rig yourself, Matthew takes around 2 weeks to create one, and prices start from $2,899. This price reflects the high-quality materials and craftsmanship that go into each Hammerhead PC. Customers can choose from a range of specifications and features to create a system that meets their specific needs and preferences. Whether you are a gamer, a designer, or simply someone who appreciates cutting-edge technology, the Hammerhead PC can be customized to suit your requirements.
