Bargain Hunter Snags $749 RTX 5060 Gaming PC Amid RAM Shortage

Amid a DRAM shortage, a Reddit user scored a CyberPowerPC pre-built with an RTX 5060, 32GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD for $849, then netted an extra $100 off by simply asking, paying about $749 total. The build runs an Intel Core Ultra 5 225F (10 cores, 20MB L3) and targets 1080p gaming; the RTX 5060’s 8GB VRAM may bottleneck newer titles, but it still offers solid graphics performance and outpace a base PS5 in GPU horsepower. The deal illustrates how price negotiation and supply constraints can yield notable value in pre-built gaming PCs.

Beating Valve’s Steam Machine: a tall order for tiny PC builds

Verge analyzes whether you can mirror Valve’s six‑inch Steam Machine with off‑the‑shelf parts. The original unit starts at $1,049 and uses a pair of custom AMD chips for CPU/GPU in a compact cube. A closest‑match mini‑ITX build in a Fractal Terra case clocks in around $1,269.81 for 512GB (or $1,446.81 with 2TB) and is still larger and pricier in many respects. Ultimately, it’s hard to match the Steam Machine’s combination of price, performance, and size with off‑the‑shelf components, though prebuilts from Minisforum or Framework offer alternatives albeit with their own tradeoffs.

Maingear's Retro98 blends 90s aesthetics with 2026 power

Maingear’s Retro98 is a limited-run, beige and nostalgia-forward gaming desktop that hides modern hardware: up to a Ryzen 9 9950X3D CPU, GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, 64GB RAM, and 4TB Gen5 SSD, with open-loop cooling available on the top-spec Alpha build. The base configuration starts around $2,499 (Intel Core Ultra 7 265K + RTX 5070), with prices climbing to $9,799 for the fully kitted model. Production is extremely limited (32 standard units and 6 Alpha units), and enthusiasts can improvise a similar look using the SilverStone FLP02 case if desired.
