AMD Ryzen 5 5500 & RTX 3050 Gaming PC – Built in the UK
The Stealth R Gaming PC is an entry-level 1080p gaming PC with a Ryzen 5 5500, a 6GB RTX 3050, and ARGB lighting.
The Stealth R Gaming PC is a great-value Ryzen 5 5500 RTX 3050 gaming PC built for smooth 1080p gaming on a budget. Its six-core, twelve-thread AMD Ryzen 5 5500 pairs with the 6GB NVIDIA RTX 3050 and 16GB of DDR4 to run popular esports and modern games at 1080p, making it an ideal first gaming PC.
Housed in a compact Vida Genesis chassis with tempered glass and ARGB lighting, this Ryzen 5 5500 RTX 3050 gaming PC packs solid 1080p performance and a great look into an affordable package.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 6GB – Ray Tracing & DLSS
Graphics come from the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 6GB, built on NVIDIA’s Ampere architecture with dedicated RT and Tensor cores. It runs popular esports titles at high frame rates and modern games at 1080p with good settings, and supports NVIDIA DLSS to boost frame rates in supported games as well as ray tracing for enhanced visuals.
The card’s efficient, compact design also includes NVIDIA’s NVENC encoder for game streaming and recording. For higher-refresh 1080p or 1440p gaming, a system with a more powerful graphics card would be a better fit.
AMD Ryzen 5 5500 – Six Cores for 1080p Gaming
The six-core, twelve-thread AMD Ryzen 5 5500 boosts to 4.2GHz and provides the processing power for smooth 1080p gaming and everyday multitasking. It keeps games running fluidly alongside background applications such as Discord and web browsing, and an AMD cooler keeps it running cool and quiet.
Fast 1TB NVMe Storage
Games, applications and Windows load from a 1TB NVMe M.2 solid-state drive for fast boot times and quick level loading, a big step up from a traditional hard drive. The motherboard has SATA ports for adding more storage as your game library grows, and the whole system is covered by a 3-year warranty.
Vida Genesis – Compact ARGB Chassis
The Stealth R Gaming PC is built in the Vida Genesis, a compact micro-ATX case with a tempered-glass side panel and two pre-installed 120mm ARGB fans that add vibrant lighting and keep the system cool. Its small footprint fits neatly on a desk, and front-panel USB ports and audio jacks make everyday connections easy.
Gigabit LAN, Wi-Fi 5 & 7.1 Audio
Wired networking runs over Gigabit Ethernet from the Gigabyte A520 motherboard, while an included dual-band Wi-Fi 5 USB adapter adds wireless connectivity for rooms without a wired connection. The board provides 7.1-channel high-definition audio and a range of USB ports for your peripherals and accessories.
