Upgrade Path Starter - Intel i3 12100 eSports Gaming PC
We love the Intel i3 CPUs simply because they're affordable and allow for entry-level gaming and a great upgrade path! This system comes with an Intel i3 12100 4 Core 8 Thread which can handle games like Fortnite, Roblox, CS:GO, Valorant, Rocket League, and many more. It also comes with a lightning-fast NVMe M.2 SSD making transfers, game launches, and much more incredibly quick. We have benchmarks of this PC listed at the end of the photos!
This system does not have a dedicated GPU; it uses an Intel CPU with Intel 730 Integrated graphics. It is very easy to upgrade by installing a dedicated GPU later. We recommend adding in GPU options such as the RX 5700XT, 6600, 6650XT from AMD, or cards like the RTX 2060, 3050, 3060, or even 4060 from Nvidia down the road to unlock even more gaming performance out of this system. Any GPU below these recommended in terms of performance work as well!
Windows 11 Pro comes installed, tested, and activated; the PC comes with a power cord. Wi-Fi is NOT included as we recommend running ethernet. A USB WIFI adapter can be purchased separately if needed.
