Aquarius and Nemifist will jointly produce high-performance PCs for gamers and corporate users, Kommersant reported. The assembly of computers using Nemifist technologies will be carried out at Aquarius facilities.
Nemifist told Kommersant that cooperation will increase production by an order of magnitude, including through “optimization of purchasing procedures.” In addition to gaming computers, the partners plan to produce workstations and graphics stations for the corporate segment.
Aquarius produces PCs and laptops for the consumer and corporate sectors, as well as servers. The company reported that it produced about 2 million PCs, excluding laptops and servers. Nemifist has production located in Moscow, “works in a boutique format and produces more than 100 computers per month, depending on the volume of demand.” Russian distributors 3Logic (Raskat brand), OCS (Nerpa) sell computers from Aquarius, and some retailers also offer gaming PCs under their own brand (DNS – Ardor Gaming).
As noted by electronics manufacturer Fplus, gaming PCs are often more complex to design than home and office equipment, and they use expensive components. “Gaming PCs are produced in relatively small quantities and are not sold as often or in such large volumes. At the same time, inventory storage costs may increase, and the risks characteristic of this segment must be compensated for by higher margins,” the company said.
The founder and producer of Robbo (manufacturer of educational robotics) Pavel Frolov does not rule out that in order to produce gaming PCs, Aquarius will have to modify production lines, since high-performance models require the installation of a life support system.
According to Dmitry Lukin, founder of Langame, a developer of solutions for computer clubs, large computer clubs usually order PC assembly from specialized divisions of distributors. According to Langame estimates, by the end of 2023 there were 2.7 thousand cyber clubs in the Russian Federation, which used 73 thousand personal computers. The average lifespan of a PC is three to four years.
