HEXUS.gaming Test Rig



Here at HEXUS.gaming, we firmly believe that games need to be tested on a ‘real world’ machine. Sure, we could build the ultimate, bleeding edge rig that would make any game fly, but that doesn’t help the guy who can’t just pop out and buy the latest, most expensive kit to slap into his machine.

At the same time, we need to be aware of what a game can do given the hardware it needs, so we believe that the HEXUS.gaming test rig strikes the balance between real world affordability and high end gaming power.
