This PC offers a confident first step into the AM5 ecosystem, pairing a competent GPU with a well-rounded AM5 CPU (unlike cheaper 8000 series CPUs that have compromises such as mixed core types and/or reduced cache sizes). This combination provides a solid starter base without the performance limitations of AM4 systems.

RGB lighting is primarily controlled through Razer Synapse 4¹ (preloaded on the system), which manages both the AIO cooling and the Razer RGB Controller connected to the case fans. The PC also comes with ZOTAC Firestorm software to control GPU fans, overclocking, and RGB. I decided against including the Corsair RAM software to minimize "bloat," as it would serve purely for RGB control unlike the previously mentioned "more functional" software. Note that the RAM appears white in the pictures due to long exposure times, but in reality, it cycles through RGB colors by default.

The platinum PSU offers great efficiency with its 750W capacity providing headroom for future upgrades. It does not have a native 12VHPWR slot/cable; however, an aftermarket cable can be purchased to support it if needed.

This PC comes completely wiped (other than the preinstalled apps⁴), and will require setting up Windows 11 on first startup.

¹The RGB is fully addressable and customizable with Razer Chroma. Pictures only include static colors due to long exposure times on the camera, which render any multicolored RGB as just white. Note: The RGB for case fans may not initialize on startup—this is a minor quirk with the Chroma controller that's easily resolved by refreshing the controller in Synapse. This step restores full functionality until the next restart.

²The Amp Holo has a colorful front/side plate, which looks cool but also affects the RGB lighting. Please note this if you're expecting "pure" RGB colors from the GPU. The plate will affect the coloring, particularly with certain colors like white appearing pink/green on the side.

³Includes: WiFi antenna (uninstalled for shipping), SATA cable, LGA 1700 bracket for Razer Hanbo (why you would want to downgrade yourself to Intel is none of my concern, lol), stock AM5 mounting brackets, remaining case screws along with fan screws, AM5 CPU slot cover, and remaining PSU cables (2x VGA, 1x CPU EPS, SATA power cable) along with the bag and cover.

⁴Preinstalled apps include Razer Synapse 4, ZOTAC Firestorm, Steam, and NVIDIA APP.
