Overview

The MSI Aegis RS 12TG-285US is a pre-built gaming desktop built around Intel's 12th Gen Core i7-12700KF processor, featuring 12 cores (8 performance, 4 efficiency) and 20 threads with boost clocks up to 5 GHz. Paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti equipped with 8GB of GDDR6 memory, this system is well-suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, video editing, 3D rendering, and other demanding tasks. The 16GB of DDR5 RAM supports fast data throughput, while the 2TB SATA SSD provides ample space for a large game library and project files without the need for additional drives right away.

Cooling is handled by a 240mm AIO liquid cooler with RGB lighting, helping maintain stable temperatures during extended gaming sessions or rendering tasks. Connectivity is robust, with Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, and a wired Ethernet port for networking, along with a generous array of USB ports including two USB 3.2 Type-C Gen2 connections. The system runs Windows 11 Pro and ships with a 1-year Microsoft 365 Personal subscription. It is worth noting that this unit has been professionally opened and upgraded by GreatPriceTech, so it is not in its original factory-sealed state, though it comes with a 1-year warranty covering the modifications.
