High Performance i9-14900F Gaming PC – Built in the UK
The eSports Next Gen RTX Gaming PC is a high performance i9-14900F gaming PC for 1080p and 1440p esports, fast-paced shooters and CPU-heavy games.
This high performance i9-14900F gaming PC pairs a 24 core Intel Core i9-14900F processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB graphics card. It suits players of competitive and CPU-heavy games who want a powerful processor at the heart of the build. Some games depend mostly on the graphics card and others on the processor, and this system is configured for the titles that put a heavy load on the CPU. It is built to order in the UK, and you can change parts in the configurator to suit your budget and the games you play.
The eSports Next Gen RTX Gaming PC is built on an Intel Core i9-14900F processor with 24 cores and 32 threads, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB GDDR7 graphics card and 32GB of Kingston Fury Beast RGB DDR5 6000MHz CL36 memory. Storage is a 1TB WD Blue SN5100 M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD plus a 4TB Seagate BarraCuda hard drive. It comes with Microsoft Windows 11 Home 64-bit (genuine, pre-installed) and a 3-year parts and labour warranty.
Intel Core i9-14900F processor for CPU-heavy games
The Intel Core i9-14900F has 24 cores and 32 threads, with a base clock of 2.0GHz, a maximum turbo of 5.8GHz and 36MB of L3 cache. It is designed to excel in heavy workloads, so it takes CPU-bound games in its stride. It also gives very high performance in general Windows applications, including when you have other programs open alongside a game. The i9-14900F has no integrated graphics, so a dedicated graphics card is fitted and every monitor connects to it.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics for 1080p and 1440p
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti has 8GB of GDDR7 memory, 4608 cores and a 180W power rating. It is a mid-range card aimed at 1080p high settings and 1440p at medium to high settings. With 8GB of video memory, 4K gaming and demanding ray tracing are outside its target. The card provides 3 x DisplayPort 2.1b and 1 x HDMI 2.1b outputs for up to four monitors, although the exact layout may vary by graphics card brand.
32GB DDR5 memory, NVMe SSD and 4TB of bulk storage
The 32GB Kingston Fury Beast RGB DDR5 6000MHz CL36 memory is fitted as two 16GB modules in dual channel, which is more than enough for modern games. The motherboard has four memory slots and supports up to 256GB, with two slots used. The 1TB WD Blue SN5100 M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD reads at up to 7100MB/s and writes at up to 6700MB/s, and it holds Windows and your installed games. The 4TB Seagate BarraCuda 3.5in SATA hard drive (5400rpm) is there for larger amounts of data that don’t need such fast access, such as video content and photos. A second M.2 slot is free for more fast storage later.
Vida Versa ARGB case and Thermalright Phantom Spirit air cooling
The Vida Versa ARGB Black is a mid tower case with a tempered glass left side panel and a glass and mesh front. It has six pre-installed 120mm ARGB fans: three at the front, two at the top and one at the rear. The processor is cooled by the Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE ARGB, a 155mm dual-tower air cooler rated at 280W, so the system is air-cooled with no liquid cooler. Power comes from a Contour 650W ATX power supply. The case measures 450mm deep, 210mm wide and 410mm high.
Wi-Fi 6E, 2.5GbE and USB connectivity
The MSI B760M Gaming Plus WIFI is a Micro-ATX DDR5 motherboard on the Intel B760 chipset. It provides built-in Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, a 2.5GbE Ethernet port and 7.1 channel high definition audio. At the rear there are two Type-A 10Gbps ports, two Type-A 5Gbps ports and two USB 2.0 ports. The front panel adds one USB 3.0 Type-A port, two USB 2.0 ports and a headphone and microphone combo jack. No keyboard or mouse is included.
Ideal for
- Competitive esports players at 1080p and 1440p
- Gamers who play CPU-heavy titles and want a 24 core processor
- Players who want a large game library and bulk storage for video and photos
- Buyers who want a mid-range gaming PC they can tailor in the configurator
For anyone who wants a high performance i9-14900F gaming PC with a sensible mid-range graphics card, generous storage and room to grow, the eSports Next Gen RTX is a well-balanced choice. It is built to order, so you can adjust the configuration before you buy.

What is the eSports Next Gen RTX Gaming PC best for?
The eSports Next Gen RTX Gaming PC is primarily a 1080p and 1440p gaming PC, aimed at high settings at 1080p and medium to high settings at 1440p. Its 24 core processor is the strongest part of the build, so it is most at home in competitive and CPU-heavy games, while the RTX 5060 Ti keeps the graphics modern. It is not aimed at 4K gaming or demanding ray tracing.
In esports and fast-paced titles it suits CS2, Valorant, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Warzone, Rocket League and Overwatch 2 at 1080p. In larger single-player games it targets Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p high, plus Red Dead Redemption 2, Elden Ring, Ghost of Tsushima and Helldivers 2 on high settings. Marvel Rivals is also within its range.
Where does the eSports Next Gen RTX Gaming PC sit in the range?
This PC puts its weight into the processor. It pairs a 24 core i9-14900F with the same RTX 5060 Ti 8GB graphics card as the Streaming PC – Ryzen 7 8700F, RTX 5060 Ti, which uses an 8 core AMD Ryzen 7 8700F and a 1TB SSD. If graphics power and video memory matter more to you than processor cores, the Titanium R Ryzen Gaming PC pairs a Ryzen 7 5800X with an RTX 5070 Ti 16GB graphics card and 32GB of DDR4 memory.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the eSports Next Gen RTX Gaming PC run Fortnite and Cyberpunk 2077?
Yes, it is aimed at 1080p high settings and 1440p at medium to high settings. It suits CS2, Valorant, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Warzone, Rocket League and Overwatch 2 at 1080p. It also runs Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p high, along with Red Dead Redemption 2, Elden Ring, Helldivers 2 and Marvel Rivals.
Does the Intel Core i9-14900F have integrated graphics?
No, the i9-14900F has no integrated graphics, so it needs a dedicated graphics card. This PC has the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB fitted, and all your monitors connect to it. The card has 3 x DisplayPort 2.1b and 1 x HDMI 2.1b outputs for up to four monitors.
Is the RTX 5060 Ti 8GB good enough for 1440p gaming?
Yes, it suits 1440p at medium to high settings, and 1080p is where it works at high settings. With 8GB of video memory, 4K gaming and demanding ray tracing are not its target. If you want more headroom at higher resolutions, choose a graphics card with more video memory in the configurator.
Can I upgrade the eSports Next Gen RTX Gaming PC later?
Yes, there is room to grow. Two of the four memory slots are used and the motherboard supports up to 256GB. A second PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot is free, one of the four SATA ports is used, and the case has mounts for 2 x 3.5in and 2 x 2.5in drives. The power supply is a 650W unit, so a much more powerful graphics card may call for a larger one, which you can choose in the configurator.
Who is this PC best suited for?
It is best suited to gamers who play competitive and CPU-heavy titles at 1080p or 1440p and want a 24 core processor with a capable mid-range graphics card. It also suits buyers who need plenty of storage, with a 1TB WD Blue SN5100 NVMe SSD for games and a 4TB hard drive for video and photos.
Does it come with Windows, a keyboard and a mouse?
