Details

Cooling

The Voodoo Omen features copper pipes for liquid cooling that are easily removeable and do not require draining during hardware upgrades. It also has a quad fan radiator designed to be noiseless. The tower is raised slightly and the motherboard is turned ninety-degrees so that air flows up from the bottom, over the components, and out the top.

Secondary LCD    

The Omen has a 7" LCD screen built into the chassis designed to run media visualizations, widgets, IM applications, or a secondary operating system. Voodoo has a system in place where developers can create their own software designed to take advantage of the screen.

Hardware Layout    

The Omen has screwless magnetic sidepanels that can be easily removed during hardware upgrades, without need for any tools. Additionally, all of the cable plug-ins are at the top of the case, in order to be more accessable.

Lighting    

The Omen has various built in LED's that can output 16 million different colors, all of which can be customized by the user.
