Chassis

The LEET's full aluminum chassis is a one-piece shell with an unmatched wall thickness of 0.2 inches (5 mm) featuring a 7" Samsung LED display in the front. All exterior parts are hand-brushed, making every chassis one of a kind. In addition, all parts are anodized to even increase the natural corrosion-resistance and to give the chassis its final color and unrivaled finishing. This makes it a perfect match for any existing home theater setup.

Audio

We recommend to connect your STEIGER DYNAMICS HTPC via HDMI through the Audio/Video Receiver (AVR) to the TV. This allows the enjoyment of lossless bitstreamed HD Audio®, Dolby TrueHD™, Dolby ATMOS, DTS Master Audio, and DTS:X (7.1 or higher, also possible with DVI or DisplayPort). Alternative ways include a direct connection to the TV or to any external Audio system (native 5.1/upmixed 7.1 surround sound via optical S/PDIF or analog audio jack (to RCA)). We also offer additional dedicated sound cards for high-end analog or studio usage. Switching between sound outputs can be done in Windows or in supported players. We recommend:
- Included 7.1 Dolby TrueHD / dts-HD lossless bitstreamed digital surround sound via HDMI (or DVI / DP) for gaming and entertainment enthusiasts
- EVGA NU Audio 2.1 (analog) / 5.1 (optical S/PDIF) with AK4493 DAC, Headphone Amp (16-600ohm), 123dB SNR, up to 384kHz, 32bit playback, switchable OP-AMPs, line/mic-in (up to 384kHz, 32bit, 121dB SNR recording)

Power Supply

All our Power Supply Units (PSU) operate from 110-240V and can be used worldwide. X- and Platinum Series PSUs are inaudible during idle and low system loads. PSUs with higher output capacity stay cooler, more efficient and more silent on high system loads. Gold PSUs feature a minimum efficiency of 90% and Platinum PSUs of 92%.
- Seasonic 450 Watt G-Series Gold for system configurations with up to a GTX 1060
- Seasonic 550 Watt G-Series Gold for system configurations with up to a GTX 1070
- Seasonic 660 Watt X-Series Gold for system configurations with GTX 1080

CPU Cooling

All our systems feature liquid cooling solutions which dissipate heat extremely efficiently. We solely use fans with high-precision ball bearings and a radiator-optimized blade design. Fan vibrations are eliminated by our custom decoupling silicone gaskets. The fan speed is variable depending on system temperatures. This allows for the highest cooling performance, while making our systems ultra-silent. We recommend:
- Corsair H80i Pre-Sealed Liquid Cooling for maintenance-free operation, easy upgradability, configurations with up to three graphics cards
- Corsair H100i Pre-Sealed Liquid Cooling for maintenance-free operation, easy upgradability, configurations with up to two graphics cards, and up to high overclocking
- LEET Custom Liquid Cooling for ultimate silent operation, aesthetics, configurations with up to two graphics cards, and up to high overclocking
Our custom liquid cooling solution was developed with Swiftech, leading manufacturer for advanced cooling components. It comprises a combined pump/CPU block and custom single- & dual-radiators with integrated reservoir.
