Pros & Cons

  • Equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8GB GDDR6 dedicated graphics card, ensuring high-performance gaming and VR readiness

  • Offers substantial and fast storage with 2x1TB PCIe NVMe SSDs configured in RAID 1, totaling 1TB of available storage
  • Includes a 240mm AIO Liquid CPU Cooler and RGB Lighting, enhancing thermal performance and aesthetic appeal

👎 Cons

  • The "Upgraded" seal being opened for hardware/software upgrades means it is not in its original factory-sealed condition.
  • While 1TB available storage is good, the RAID 1 configuration means the total raw storage capacity is 2TB, but only 1TB is usable, prioritizing data redundancy over maximum space.
  • The absence of a display means users will need to purchase a monitor separately to use the PC.
  • The inclusion of a 7-in-1 Dockztorm USB Hub may be redundant for users who already have ample USB ports or a preferred hub.
  • Comes with Windows 11 Pro-64, which some users might find less familiar than Windows 10 for gaming.
