Celebrate ASUS Week with this Intel Gaming PC Build
ASUS Week is here and we’ve got great deals on ASUS products, including motherboards, power supplies, and accessories. To celebrate, we’ve put together two builds. Below is an Intel-based gaming build that's perfect for AAA gaming. Or, check over here for an AMD build with productivity in mind.
Video Card: ASUS NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Dual White Edition
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 is a killer graphics card, and the ASUS Dual White edition makes it look as good as it runs. Not only can it handle just about any AAA title you throw at it, it’ll be ready to game for years to come. With a mostly white chassis and a strip of black at the very top, this card is designed to be a centerpiece of any build, so we’re leaning into it with a white and black PC design.
Processor/Motherboard/RAM:
A great GPU needs a great base, so we’re using one of our Bundle and Save deals to get the CPU, RAM, and MoBo. Our chosen bundle includes an Intel Core i7-14700K and 32GB of G.Skill DDR5-6000 RAM. While the bundle usually includes ASUS Z790 Gaming WIFI7, we’re swapping it out for a different ASUS board: The ASUS Z790 ROG Strix. With these parts, we’ve got an incredibly powerful base that’s ready to get gaming. Plus, you still get nearly $100 in savings by using a Bundle and Save, even when switching motherboards.
Storage:
If you’re building a PC and skipping out on the SSD, you’re missing a lot of potential power and speed. The Inland 2TB M.2 drive is going to ensure your OS and games boot lighting fast, especially as more games are requiring an SSD to run. Of course, if you need more space, a backup HDD is a great place to store bigger games that you might not play as often, and this big Seagate 4TB drive is perfect for that.
PSU: ASUS TUF Gaming 850 Watt 80 Plus Gold ATX Fully Modular Power Supply
If we’re building a computer based on aesthetics, a modular power supply is an absolute must. The ASUS TUF Gaming 850 Watt PSU lets you use only the cables you need, so you won’t have a bunch of loose cables hanging around your case. Of course, it’ll also offer more than enough power to keep all the components running smoothly.
Case: ASUS ROG Strix Helios GX601 RGB Tempered Glass ATX Mid-Tower Computer Case - White Edition
Bringing the build home, we have the ASUS ROG Strix Helios in white, an absolutely gorgeous case that will do wonders to complement this white-and-black build. Featuring a tempered glass window, you’ll be able to show off your build to the envy of all your friends.
Monitor: ASUS ROG Swift PG32UCDM 31.5" 4K UHD 240Hz Gaming Monitor
After putting all these great parts into a computer, the last thing you should do is settle for a basic monitor. The ASUS ROG Swift 31.5” is a 4K monitor with a massive 240Hz refresh rate, making it a great option for both cinematic AAA games as well as high-speed esports titles.
