The Sputnik has launched! 🛰️

Coming in at a WHOPPING 10.5 x 8 x 11.6 inches, this tiny titan is ready to blast off into orbit with YOU at the helm!

Sputnik is a freshly built small-form-factor 1080p gaming PC, packing a 6-core Intel Core i5, GTX 1660 Super, 16GB of dual-channel RAM, and a speedy NVMe SSD into a case small enough to comfortably fit on a desk. It's even got a carrying handle!

It's a great little machine for all-time-hits like Fortnite, Minecraft, Roblox, BeamNG.drive, Forza Horizon 6, and plenty more. I've even personally tested these games on the machine itself!

🧪TESTED, NOT JUST ASSEMBLED:

I've personally played a variety of games on Sputnik, including Forza Horizon 6, BeamNG.drive, Fortnite, Roblox, and Minecraft with shaders.

I've also put the system through synthetic testing and benchmarking using 3DMark Time Spy, Unigine Heaven, and Unigine Superposition.

All pre-owned components have been tested for proper operation, stability, and temperatures before this PC was listed.

Curious about a particular benchmark, temperature, setting, or test result? Don't hesitate to ask! I probably have an answer for you.

🪟WINDOWS & SETUP:

Sputnik comes with Windows 11 installed and activated.

By default, Windows will be prepared for its normal first-time setup, meaning that when you turn the PC on, you'll be able to create your own account and choose your preferences just like you would with a new computer.

I'll also include a small selection of useful software. No bloatware, I promise!

If you'd prefer that I set up a local account or make another reasonable configuration change before shipping, just let me know.

✨NEW + PRE-OWNED:

Sputnik was built using a mixture of carefully selected pre-owned hardware and brand-new components. I've identified the condition of every major component above. The case, power supply, case fans, RGB controller, and external Wi-Fi hardware were purchased new for this build, while the core pre-owned components have been individually tested and then tested again as part of the completed system.

A budget gaming PC doesn't have to feel like a random pile of budget parts!

📦PACKED WITH CARE:

Sputnik will be securely packed using its original Jonsbo case packaging and internal protection to help keep the components safe during transit.

The PC will include its power cable and applicable accessories, so once it arrives, all you'll need are your monitor, keyboard, mouse, and games!

🛰️WHO IS SPUTNIK FOR?

YOU!! 🫵 THE PERSON READING THIS, obviously! I kid, I kid...unless...?

Sputnik is a compact, affordable 1080p gaming machine for someone who wants to play their favorite games without dedicating half their desk to a giant tower.

It's small. It's quiet. It's got Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It's easy to carry. It's even got a little bit of RGB, for those extra ✨ Style Points! ✨ Most importantly, it's been thoroughly tested and prepped to give you the best experience possible.
