Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D for racing simulators

The AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D is a 16-core, 32-thread processor on the AM5 platform. It runs at a 4.3GHz base clock and reaches a maximum turbo of 5.7GHz, with 128MB of L3 cache. A racing simulator asks a lot of the processor as well as the graphics card, because it handles vehicle physics, AI opponents and telemetry while the game renders. The extra cores also leave room for the apps many drivers run alongside a race, such as telemetry tools, voice chat or a stream. The processor includes integrated graphics, and the 360mm liquid cooler keeps it supplied with cooling during long sessions.

Memory and storage: 64GB DDR5 and a 2TB NVMe SSD

The 64GB of DDR5 6000MHz RGB memory is fitted as two 32GB modules in dual channel. The motherboard has four DIMM slots, two of them used, and supports up to 256GB, so there is room to grow. The 2TB WD Blue SN5100 M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD is rated at 7100MB/s read and 6700MB/s write and holds Windows 11 Home, your racing titles and your setup files. The motherboard offers four M.2 slots in total, with three free, plus four SATA 6Gb/s ports. The case has mounts for two 3.5in and six 2.5in drives, which suits a growing library of cars and tracks.

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 with 32GB GDDR7

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 has 21760 cores, 32GB of GDDR7 memory and a 575W power rating. It is the top GPU on Punch’s site, and the 32GB of video memory gives high-resolution and multi-screen racing plenty of room. The card provides three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs and one HDMI 2.1b output, supporting up to four monitors, which suits a triple-screen racing setup. Output layout may vary by card brand. A Contour 1000W fully modular ATX 3.1 power supply feeds the system.

Case and cooling: APNX V1 and a 360mm AIO

The APNX V1 Wood/Black is a mid tower with a panoramic, dual-chamber tempered glass design and a wood and black finish. It measures 500mm deep, 290mm wide and 485.5mm high, so check the space beside your rig or desk before ordering. The Corsair NAUTILUS 360 RS ARGB has a 360mm radiator and cools the Ryzen 9 9950X3D. The RGB memory and ARGB cooler add colour to the build.

Connectivity: Wi-Fi 7, USB4 and plenty of USB ports

Most sim racing hardware connects over USB, and this PC has plenty of ports. The rear panel has two USB4 Type-C ports, two Type-A ports at 10Gbps, four Type-A ports at 5Gbps and four USB 2.0 ports, twelve in total. The front panel adds one USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C port, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, a headphone jack and a microphone jack.
