Mountain GTM 2000, analysis

We began today with the analysis of GTM Mountain 2000, a review that will take us a few days. There are a total of six innings, we squeeze the last Mountain computer to play with different tests and configurations. Of course too long we will draw conclusions about what this team, the audience it is directed and the quality offered.

Let's start today with confidence and discuss the technical, construction equipment and the differences between it and another computer. It is the beginning of the analysis of one of the most interesting market computers for those who want maximum power and are willing to spend an amount certainly high on your new computer.


The technical specifications of the 2000 GTM Mountain base are as follows: All Mountain GTM assembly 2000 is excellent, like any other computer brand. Excellency is based on the Antec Twelve Hundred, from my point of view one of the best boxes on the market. Is large and very spacious, allowing installation of any component.

We could say that the benefits of GTM 2000 are the same as the one GTM 900, which is in fact our test team. The physical installation of hardware is impeccable, with all the wires picked up by the sides to release the central area of the team. In this way ensures that air flows inside the computer are perfect and that there is no cable or component to interfere with ventilation.

The power supply is at the bottom of your computer is a modular Antec 850 watts and all the wires coming from it are fully retracted, whatever your destination. Also the SATA cables for hard drives and the DVD recorder have a pristine installation. An interesting detail is that SATA hard drives and power connectors on the graphics card has a small pasta that prevents out of their sockets.

This glue is special insulation and resists high temperatures. We will not discuss all the benefits of the physical construction of the Mountain 2000 GMT, just add that Mountain is one of the companies that do better job with regard to the installation of a desktop computer. Any questions you can leave it in the comments and I will reply with my opinion.

GTM 2000 Mountain continues to be one of the most advanced computers of the time. It uses the latest Intel platform, the once called Sandy Bridge and renamed the Intel Core 2nd Gen.. The microprocessor is the second most powerful manufacturer, Intel Core i5-2500K that is unlocked for overclocking.

Overclocking is precisely one of the tasks for which the GTM 2000 is designed by the Scythe Ninja heatsink 3, of enormous size and excellent performance. Also the Asus Maximus Extreme IV comes, offering a highly advanced and intuitive BIOS. Imagine the face that was when I saw that in that BIOS could use the mouse.

Mouse in the BIOS! In addition to overclocking is also a computer to play, and it uses a set of high performance components. For this task for which it promotes Mountain within the family GTM, and precisely why we have focused our analysis. We tested seven next-generation graphics cards so you can see how they behave towards each.

But it later. Obviously this is a computer well above the average of the computers sold today. Its starting price is set at 1,492 euros, high but consistent with the components it brings. Surely most users do not need a motherboard like the Maximus Extreme IV, not a sink as Ninja 3. But Mountain GTM 2000 is what it is: a desktop computer designed for those who want the cutting edge in the market.

Is a typical computer that is configured to not provide headaches for several years, and if present, is easily expandable. Surely there will be comments on whether it is more expensive than self-assembly for parts. Obviously. Mountain no longer a company that lives this, and must have a certain margin of profit.

The GTM 2000 is no exception, of course, but as we always say one of the virtues of this company from Madrid is that the assembly is excellent, the best I've seen. It is for this reason that Mountain GTM 2000 is a computer designed for those already tired of their desktop mounted. You come home in a huge crate, unpack, plug in and enjoy.

Obviously that must be paid. Once installed, you notice how all the components are quality. Asus Motherboard, Kingston reports, and Antec case and power PNY graphics (although depending on the model it is possible that the manufacturer is another). The performance offered by this monster we will see in the next posts in the meantime I leave you with a gallery of images and photos from your computer.

Mountain GTM 2000 has been transferred to the test by Mountain.
