Highlights

  • Key Specs
    • Processor Model: AMD Ryzen 7 8000 Series (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
    • Storage Type: SSD
    • Total Storage Capacity: 2000 gigabytes
    • System Memory (RAM): 16 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
    • Graphics Type: Dedicated (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
    • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)

    • Processor Model Number: 8700F
    • CPU Base Clock Frequency: 4.1 gigahertz (Actual central processing unit (CPU) speed may vary by device configuration and design. The average rate at which the processor is able to execute tasks under normal operating conditions as asserted by the manufacturer.)
    • CPU Boost Clock Frequency: 5 gigahertz (Actual central processing unit (CPU) speed may vary by device configuration and design. The maximum rate at which the processor is able to execute tasks, typically only used for a short period of time as needed. This rate may temporarily boost the processor's performance, but may result in overheating, shutdown, or damage to equipment if sustained.)

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible Performance and Smooth Gameplay!

    I’ve been using this gaming PC for a few weeks now, and I’m seriously impressed. The performance is outstanding — games like Cyberpunk 2077, Call of Duty: Warzone, and Fortnite all run flawlessly with high frame rates. Load times are practically instant thanks to the SSD, and the cooling system keeps everything running cool and quiet even during long gaming sessions. The build quality feels premium, with clean cable management and vibrant RGB lighting that gives it that perfect gaming setup look. I also appreciate how easy it was to set up — just plug it in and go. Whether you’re a competitive gamer or just want a powerful PC for work and entertainment, this machine delivers way more than expected. Definitely worth every penny — highly recommend it!

    Everything you need if you’re not a complete nerd

    This PC Everything you need if you’re not a complete nerd. Build quality is great Setup was very simple and easy 50 series RTX DLSS is an absolute game changer for gaming. It runs everything you want at a great frame rate Niche games Badly optimized games like squad and gray zone warfare You name it. This pc can handle it. If you’re a 1440p purist or want to run games at 4k This pc might not be for you But if you’re just looking for a machine that just gets the job done without limits, this is it. Very satisfied Bonus points too with the tote bag that it comes with incase you want to transport it And also the 2TB SSD is a big plus because you won’t have to be having to uninstall games to just install a new one. Great machine overall Not for you if you’re a perfectionist or a nerd though.
