X Series Motherboard
Supporting up to 192GBs of RAM, & catering to up to 7.1 channel surround systems, & a bare minimum of 4x USB-A ports at the rear. These boards are designed for high-performance gaming & enthusiast PCs, offering a number of features not available on lower-end motherboards. Features including CPU overclocking, more PCIe lanes to support more expansion cards (GPUs for instance) as well as NVMe SSDs, better power delivery, & more connectivity support such as an increased number of USB ports, & better audio codecs.
Processor/CPU: AMD Ryzen AM5
Now firmly back in the CPU race, AMD turns up the core & thread count; not forgetting the clock speeds either! Turning their attention exclusively to DDR5 RAM, Ryzen continues to bridge the gap between consumer & professional workstations with their pro-sumer grade CPUs.
CPU Cooling Solution: All-In-One (AIO) Liquid Cooler
120mm, 240mm, or 360mm: liquid cooling often provides the best cooling for your CPU to perform at its peak. If you consider that a 360mm is best used with an i9/R9 CPU, then working backwards from there (so an i7/R7 gets a 240mm, & i5/R5 gets a 120mm) would roughly line up with our recommendation. Of course, going above what we recommend is also fine! In case you were worried, all our liquid coolers are pre-filled from the manufacturer, & aren't intended to be maintained or topped-up by us or end-users: set & forget so you can enjoy using the PC.
An adequate CPU cooler ensures that your CPU can perform at or near its limit rather than leaving performance (that you've paid for) on the table.

Memory/RAM
Unless you're only using your PC for the most simple/basic of tasks, 16GB is our minimum recommendation for RAM, otherwise 8GB can scrape through for those on a tight budget. With 32GB+ of RAM widely accepted as being more than enough for typical gaming purposes, higher capacities can prove useful for those who run other apps/tasks while gaming, or for those who need their system to run content creation applications.
A general guide for editing videos the following is recommended: 1080p footage needs 32GB RAM, 4K needs 64GB, & 6K-8K needs 128GB.
Nvidia RTX 40 Series Graphics Card
Expanding on the RTX 30 series: RTX 40 series is for gamers & creators, built on the Ada Lovelace architecture & AI-powered graphics. Nvidia's DLSS 3.5 continues to make high-resolution gaming a reality.
Take advantage of ShadowPlay & record/stream your gaming sessions with very little impact on gaming performance - unique to Nvidia graphics cards!
Primary Storage Drive: NVMe M.2 SSD
This is where your operating system gets installed, so it's great choice for a primary drive! Bringing some of the fastest speeds possible to your new system, an M.2 SSD bypasses the bottleneck that traditional SATA SSDs are restricted by meaning you've unlocked upto over 3,000% faster speeds than SATA SSDs offer, and upto over 9,000% faster than HDDs: nice one!
