Artisan Gaming PC

Artisan Ryzen 5 7600 Gaming PC with RTX 5060 Ti – Built in the UK

The Artisan Gaming PC is a mid-range 1080p and 1440p gaming PC for esports, modern AAA titles and everyday use.

The Artisan Ryzen 5 7600 gaming PC pairs a 6 core, 12 thread AMD processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and DDR5 memory, all in a black tempered glass case with ARGB fans. It is built for players who want smooth 1080p gameplay at high settings, with the option of 1440p at medium to high settings. Every Artisan is built to order in the UK, so you can change parts in the configurator before you buy.

The Artisan Gaming PC is built on an AMD Ryzen 5 7600 processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, an ASUS PRIME B840M-K motherboard, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti with 8GB of GDDR7 memory and 16GB of DDR5 5600MHz memory in a 2 x 8GB dual channel kit. Storage is a 1TB WD Blue SN5100 M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, power comes from a Contour 650W ATX PSU, and the system includes Microsoft Windows 11 Home 64-bit (genuine, pre-installed) with a 3-year parts and labour warranty.

AMD Ryzen 5 7600 processor

The AMD Ryzen 5 7600 has 6 cores and 12 threads, a 3.8GHz base clock, a maximum turbo of 5.1GHz and 32MB of L3 cache. In games that fast boost clock is what keeps frame delivery responsive, and 12 threads leave room for Discord, a browser or a launcher running alongside. The processor also includes integrated graphics. It sits in the AM5 socket of an ASUS PRIME B840M-K Micro-ATX motherboard with the AMD B840 chipset, which provides DDR5 memory support and PCIe 4.0 on both of its M.2 slots.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti has 4608 cores, 8GB of GDDR7 memory and a 180W power rating. It is the graphics hardware behind the 1080p high and 1440p medium to high targets of this build. Outputs are 3 x DisplayPort 2.1b and 1 x HDMI 2.1b, enough for up to 4 monitors, although the exact layout may vary by card brand. The card uses the board’s PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, and a second PCIe 3.0 x16 slot running at x4 remains available for expansion.

DDR5 memory and PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage

The 16GB of DDR5 5600MHz memory is fitted as a 2 x 8GB dual channel kit, which uses both of the board’s DIMM slots. The board supports up to 128GB, so a later memory upgrade means replacing the modules with larger ones. If you want more memory from day one, choose it in the configurator when you order.

The 1TB WD Blue SN5100 M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD is rated at up to 7100MB/s read and 6700MB/s write, which keeps Windows, your launchers and your game library quick to load. A second M.2 slot (PCIe 4.0 x4) is free, there are 4 SATA 6Gb/s ports on the board, and the case has mounts for 2 x 3.5in and 2 x 2.5in drives.

Vida Typhoon ARGB case and air cooling

The Vida Typhoon ARGB Black is a mid tower with a tempered glass side panel. It comes with 3 x 120mm ARGB fans at the front and 1 x 120mm ARGB fan at the rear, pre-installed. The processor is cooled by a Thermalright Assassin King 120 SE, a 148mm tower air cooler rated at 200W, comfortably above what a Ryzen 5 7600 asks of it. The case measures 449mm deep, 200mm wide and 390mm high. Power comes from a Contour 650W ATX PSU, a non-modular unit.

Connectivity and ports

The rear panel offers 4 x Type-A 5Gbps USB ports, 2 x USB 2.0 ports and a 2.5GbE Ethernet port. The front panel adds 1 x USB 3.0, 2 x USB 2.0 and an HD audio jack. Wireless is handled by a dual band PCIe card with Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4, and the board provides 7.1 HD audio. No keyboard or mouse is included, so use the accessory links below to add them.
