Obtaining a pre -built game computer is a good way to get a high number of frames per second and a general advantage in which a computer computer user enjoyed without a tedious playing with cables and screws or stunning terror for the first time. The computer assumes is usually carefully folded, not a rat rat of internal potential customers with dubious air flow and has benefits than buying a laptop, because you can connect it to an existing monitor and keyboard and gives faster components for money.
There are also scale economies, because the computers manufacturer can buy 1000 motherboards for much less per unit than just when buying one, and you can often get nicely priced examples that are still well defined.
Take, for example, this Aqua cyclone from ABS. There is nothing Aqua about it, because it is not cooled with water, and most of its components are rather black than blue, but for $ 1150 you get a well -thought -out set of components that opened through the side panels.
The dust filter at the top may be more attached by magnets, but at the top there is an easily available power button and some USB ports, rinsing with the upper surface, but you can still feel them in the obscure.

Inside there is a lot of Gigabyte set: Gigabyte B760M Wi-Fi and Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Windforce OC 8G motherboard, supported by RAM from the team from the group and SSD Kingston. This is a solid combination, topped with 650 in a dog and air cooling. There is only one USB-C-C-fast 2×2 USB 3.2 Gen 2×2, which is ideal for an external SSD or dropping files from the camera-and although it would be nice to see more of them, maybe this is understandable in this price range.
Similarly, only Wi-Fi 5 (via the Intel AC 9560 wireless chipset) and a single Gigabit Ethernet on board means this as a budget mobo. On the back there is real mouse PS/2 and keyboards, like something from 1997.
Of course, there is RGB lighting with two fans at the front and one at the back that do their job, and the processor radiator and frames controlled by Gigabyte software via Fusion RGB. This means that you can adjust the lighting that you can’t see for much time (and even turn it off), while the front lights just pass through the color – it would also be nice to synchronize the housing fans, because the software is there.
You will also receive a CFOSSPEED traffic tool, which is sometimes packed in motherboard and the Gigabyte software package will install Norton if you are not careful. There was also a firmware update, which refused to install, no matter how many times clicked, but the latest BIOS F12 – at the end of September 2024 – can be downloaded from Gigabyte and installed using a flash drive.
It may not be the most current disc, but it has some availability functions, such as the Fast Ed button for the PCIe 4.0 x16 PCIE 4.0 sockets, when the inevitable need to improve the RTX 4060 Ti card will appear over you-you will want to replace the power supply, because 650W will not be enough and will not be sufficient for immense RTX cards 50.
GeForce 4060Ti is still not a bad choice for 1080p games in 2025, even with RTX 5060 TI on the horizon. But now he is several years aged and begins to show his age, especially in the fact that he has only 8 GB VRAM and a 128 -bit memory bus, even if he receives a useful DLSS update. PC Gaming is a capricious lover, always demanding more than us, and at least the 14th generation i7 will probably be good for several years, and in this compilation there is a lot of nice frames, the GPU will be the fastest.
Therefore, its performance in PC Gamer All-You-Dan-Eat Benchmark Suite will not be great, because the games will work on 1440p. You will utilize many average settings with such a card, and although tracking of rays may be possible, the Overdrive 4K cyberpunk mode is probably out of the table, if you want more than a slide. You can get a game of up to 50 FPS at 1440p with DLSS in the quality mode and the utilize of medium environment, which causes a pleasant experience. You will also get a good liquid buckle in Baldur’s Gate 3 at 1440p, and because this game is strongly dependent on the processor, it can get closer to 4K settings with a bit of DLSS.
In the time of Benchmark Time Spy, which works at 4K, and thus rewards cards such as RTX 4080 Super with their larger VRAM pool, publishes the GPU result half the Nvidia card, but the real surprise is the processor. Core i7-14700f is a sizzling system with 20 cores (capable of processing 28 threads), the maximum turbocharging frequency of 5.4 GHz and can take up to 219 W-but when Lake Raptor stays with the Ultra and Ryzen X3D chips core.
He overcomes the X3D system in the Cinebench 2024 demanding rendering test, which can be the result of having 12 E -ranks for a backup of eight P cores, because Ryzen does not slightly pulls forward when they were asked to utilize only one core.
Buy if …
✅ You want a computer with a tower, but you don’t want to spend a lot of money: It is as basic as it really is – you can try to build your own at a similar price.
Don’t buy if …
❌ Think about unlimited computer power makes you shake your excitement: Do you have a crazy flash in your eye? You will not receive the highest power here.
SSD has a good size at 1 TB, but it does not hit the maximum speeds that we expect for PCIe 4.0. It is still faster than PCIe 3.0 memory, but we saw better. It is also not hard to find a graphic processor that can press more than 4060ti, especially at higher resolutions, but if you don’t strive for the splendor traced by 4K, it’s really not that bad.
Thanks to RTX 4060Ti, it can be tempted to describe Aqua as a budget computer, but that’s not. First of all, the price is not deep in the budget territory, but with a fiery processor, 32 GB DDR5-6000 and solid quality of workmanship you get a decent computer for money. It can become a host of updating the power supply and GPU further when the RTX 5070 prices drops a bit, but for now Aqua will give you 1080p games experience, even if there is not much head for the future. The whole thing costs less than the RTX 5090 card.
Renewed PCs
The pain of action problems and tariffs and criminal prices for GPU mean that the full computer can be the best chance to get decent equipment at a decent price. We checked a few computers from ABS games on the renovated line to see how they advise them as a way to potentially save some cash. All replays are checked as returns, and all unsuccessful components are replaced with a normal supply, and each machine is tested three times during the process. They are then tested by stress using the same process as all novel computers for ABS games.
