Thermaltake’s Ryzen 5 5600X/RTX 3060 desktop is made for gaming at new $1,100 low ($550 off)
Amazon is offering the Thermaltake Ryzen 5/16GB/1TB/RTX 3060 Liquid Cooled Gaming Desktop for $1,099.81 shipped. Down from a $1,650 normal going rate since launch, it started falling in price back in mid-April and today’s deal marks a new all-time low that we’ve tracked at $550 off. While we have seen some RTX 3060 desktops go for as low as $700 in the past, those configurations had half the RAM and SSD space as this deal, and also used an older, slower processor. Packing AMD’s previous-generation Ryzen 5 5600X 6-core 12-thread CPU, this desktop utilizes an AMD B550 motherboard which allows you to fully utilize PCIe 4.0 gear like newer graphics cards and SSDs. There’s 16GB of DDR4 RAM pre-installed, and you’ll get a 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD out of the box as well. On top of that, there’s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth here for connecting to the internet as well as pairing controllers or headsets. Now, when it comes to gaming, the RTX 3060 is great for 1080p or 1440p setups and delivered an impressive experience in our hands-on review of it. Keep reading for more.
