Starforge Systems’ New Collab PC Is a Terrifyingly Pink 00’s Throwback

Starforge and the infamous pink man-eating mascot Gloomy Bear have joined forces to launch a new PC case and collection of coordinating accessories.

Starforge Systems has continued working diligently to launch additional eye-catching limited edition PCs and cases, which have become a trademark of the brand.

Recently, the company owned by OTK & Moistcr1TiKaL revealed the ‘Old School RuneScape PC’, which was inspired by Jagex’s popular free-to-play MMO.

Furthermore, the nostalgia persists as Starforge Systems announced the release of their latest collaboration: the Gloomy Bear PC.

The boutique PC brand has collaborated with the official Gloomy Bear Store to launch a limited edition PC, as well as Gloomy Bear-themed desk mats and acrylic wall art panels.

For those who are not familiar, Gloomy Bear is an original character created by Japanese graphic designer Mori Chack.

In an interview with TokyoScope in 2023, Chack elaborated on his design of the bear, stating that it was meant to depict the immense responsibility that a pure-hearted boy would face when keeping a wild animal as a pet.

For more than two decades, the pink and bloodied Gloomy Bear has given rise to a vast array of merchandise, including its own clothing line, figurines, smartphone accessories, a collaboration with VTuber Ironmouse, and even an anime series.

Despite this, the hot pink spectacle of the custom-printed Lian Li A4-H20 X4 Starforge System326 PC remains.

The base of the “DIY-ready chassis”is adorned with blood-dripped details, staying true to Gloomy Bear’s iconic hot-pink color.

The prebuilt PC, which is available only in limited quantities, comes equipped with a powerful Nvidia RTX 4070 Super graphics card, a Ryan 5 7600X processor, and 32GB of DDR5-6000 RAM. Additionally, purchasing the limited edition PC will also include a Gloomy Bear desk mat and wall art panel.

The desk mats, measuring 90 x 40 cm each, showcase a variety of Gloomy Bear art. These include the ‘Best Frenemies’ mat with a graffiti-inspired design and the ‘Stare Bear’ mat that complements the front design of the PC case. To fully enhance the gaming setup, there are also 12 x 18 wall art prints available, each featuring a unique Gloomy Bear design.

The Starforge Systems website is now offering the limited edition Gloomy Bear collab for purchase. However, transforming your gaming setup into a Gloomy Bear haven will be a costly undertaking.

The exclusive PC bundle costs $2,349.99. However, if you wish to save some money, you can purchase the five desk mats and acrylic wall art individually instead of splurging on the entire bundle.
