Shoppers have been full of praise for the PCs, with one writing: “Fantastic specification for the money, nice looking machine and quiet, delivers a solid 80-100fps in Rust with all the settings on max, son is a very happy gamer again.”
Another added: “Good price, good delivery and enjoyable to use.Price for specs is pretty good in comparison to what is currently available. Runs Valorant, Apex etc at 240+ FPS. Just have to take a hit on the quality a bit, so I can’t complain.
“Also, the fan's speed increases only when needed, so the pc is quiet. Some downsides to this though is that I had to use an Ethernet cable to get internet and only 500gb of ssd storage with no hdd. Other than that, I was thoroughly impressed.”
One dubbed it ‘excellent value’, adding: “Great spec for price would recommend my son is very happy and it does everything he wants it to and more fast delivery and well packaged.”
The slightly cheaper version of this device comes in at £949.99, with the better spec - offering a terabyte of storage, costs £1,149.99.
The PCs are only available online and are available to pre-order, with an estimated dispatch date of Monday, April 18.
