Whether it’s for gaming or work, we can’t deny the importance of owning the perfect desktop setup to suit all of your needs. With default WFH looking to be the new normal, there’s no better time than now to level up your workspace. However, picking out a PC that best suits you and your needs might be tough to do on your own — especially if you’re not a well-versed tech geek.
This is where Aftershock’s new experiential showroom comes into play. Picture this: an interactive museum-like showroom where you can touch and feel everything on offer, stocked with all the equipment and knowledge needed to build a new PC. Look no further than Aftershock Endgame, so read on to find out how you can create a PC that screams you.
If you’d rather build your own PC from scratch but don’t have the technical know-how, head over to The Forge, where they’ve got you covered.
Simply book a timeslot at the Build Bay, and a member of their staff will guide you to put your new PC together from scratch. While buying a ready-made PC is easier, building your own is a whole new level that will make your setup all the more special.
Exclusive to existing Aftershock customers is the adjacent Upgrade Bay, where you’ll be able to upgrade your graphic card and other on-demand parts at prices that you’re not going to find anywhere else.
For techy couples who are into artsy crafts, this custom PC workshop might be the next date idea to put on your list. From the case design to wires and RGB lighting, you’re free to pick out the parts according to your tastes so you and bae will leave this place feeling like tech pros and Picasso.
Hey, even if you prefer a full-pink setup, no one will judge you since you’re the artist here.
Complete your pink PC setup with a matching keyboard over at Mash, decked out with shelves of coloured keys in glass jars, making us feel like kids in a candy shop. Or you could think of it like a cafe, where a “boardrista” will guide you through your order.
This joint venture between Aftershock and local keyboard startup Tempest is the next stop in your journey to building your very own custom keyboard. We’re not kidding when we say you can create anything: with the numerous keyboards, keycaps, switches, accessories and more, think of it as an all-you-can-eat keyboard buffet.
Rest assured that you’re free to get a feel of everything before deciding on your own — since keyboards are all about how it feels while you’re using it, you’ll only know if you like it when you test it out yourself.
Whether it’s Japan-inspired with a Mt. Fuji spacebar, or a simple chio pink palette, the possible combinations at Mash are endless.
We also hear that plans are in the works for you to be able to commission your very own designs to be printed on the keycaps, so you can be assured that your keyboard is 100% original.
Right in the heart of the showroom is where you get to walk through a collection of limited-edition PCs exhibited on pedestals — just like a real museum. Think of it as Aftershock’s hall of fame, where you’ll find one-of-a-kind, unique PC designs available for sale.
Just last year, Aftershock released the world’s first bubble tea PC with “pearls” that float around in the coolant. If you crave more exclusive designs, you’ll be pleased to know that Aftershock will be seasonally creating new PCs that’ll be displayed here.
If you’ve got something else in mind, simply let the team know. They’ll do their best to make it happen in the Custom PC production bay, which has over 20 production stations with a team of master builders dedicated to custom craftsmanship.
After this adorable BBT design, we can’t wait to see what else they have in store for us. We’ll let you in on a little secret: a beer PC is said to be on its way soon!
Whether you’re a budding streamer or a pro gamer, get cracking on your dream setup at the Twitch Streamers showroom. Make informed decisions with the expert knowledge of resident streamers and tech pros, and put everything to the test before you click “buy”.
From kawaii cat-ear headphones, to an all-pink get-up with a glowing pink heart that reminds us of Sailor Chibi Moon’s Pink Moon Rod, enhance your soft girl vibes with these inspirations.
Rather than play Russian roulette with the information and reviews online, seeing and touching everything IRL will ensure you get exactly what you’re looking for. If you want to get your purchases ASAP, QR codes are available so you can purchase the parts on the spot.
Meanwhile, the Secretlab and Omnidesk spaces featured in the IKEA-style showrooms allow you to visualise how you want to design your whole space — from your monitor and desk to the PC and peripherals.
You can also discover tech brands like Razer and Logitech side by side too, serving as a convenient way to compare whatever you’d like before purchasing.
Spanning over 7,000 square feet, it’s hard to miss the new Aftershock experiential showroom — especially since it’s fronted with futuristic neon signs. Fun fact: this is 1 of Aftershock’s 3 new facilities in the same building, and the upgraded HQ is on its way to becoming the largest dedicated custom PC space in Singapore.
Don’t say bojio: grab your BFFs and enjoy this brand-new showroom, where you can freely interact with and discover everything about your PC-to-be. There’s nothing like hands-on experiences to get you hyped for a PC setup that’s made just for you.
