Boutique gaming PC manufacturer iBUYPOWER may not be in the ranks of MSI and AlienWare, but it is a household name in the custom PCs scene. Among their range of products is the iBUYPOWER Gaming RDY L20IRG201 which has been assembled with gamers in mind. This rig can also suit creators and designers as well as other professionals looking for heavy computing power.
This rig has been built in a Thermaltake Level 20 MT ARGB case and an ASUS TUF GAMING X570-PLUS with WiFi. The choice of motherboard is fantastic as TUF gaming motherboards deliver exceptional performance. The X570-PLUS guarantees unwavering stability.
Under the hood, iBUYPOWER went a different way this time dropping Intel for a 3rd Generation Ryzen 9 CPU (12x 3.8GHZ/64MB L3 Cache). Now, to provide enough GPU power to handle the demanding titles like Dota 2, CS: GO, and Battlefield V just to mention a few, the iBUYPOWER RDY boasts an MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super Ventus OC 8 GB GDDR6. Not only does it guarantee smooth VR gameplay, but it is also ready for Ray-Tracing, making it a good configuration for Control.
Now, it’s not just about the chipsets; cooling is also a concern during those long gaming sessions. The rig features an iBUYPOWER 240mm Addressable RGB Liquid Cooling System. As for the CPU, iBUYPOWER used a 650 Watt – HIGH POWER 80 PLUS Gold, but of course, you can opt for the 850 Watt model.
Regarding memory, the Gaming RDY L20IRG201 has a 16GB [8GB x 2] DDR4-3200MHz ADATA XPG SPECTRIX D41 RGB RAM. As for storage, it doesn’t have an optical drive but comes with a 1TB Intel 660P M.2 NVMe SSD.
On the rear interface, the rig has 1x PS/2 Combo Port, 1x DP out (1.2), 1x HDMI out (1.4), 1x LAN RJ45, 4x USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A, 2x USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, 1x USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-C, 5x Audio jacks, and 1x Optical S/PDIF out.
The iBUYPOWER Gaming RDY L20IRG201 comes with an iBUYPOWER RGB Gaming Keyboard and iBUYPOWER Gaming Optical Mouse. The only thing you will need is an equally powerful gaming monitor to complete the battle station.
To make the deal sweeter, you will get Get Call of Duty: Modern Warfare courtesy of the NVIDIA RTX Graphic Card purchase and Borderlands 3 and The Outer Worlds for the AMD RYZEN 3900X/3800X.
Please note this configuration is for the L20IRG201 model, but of course, you can opt for more powerful components or, step down a little bit to suit your budget. The iBUYPOWER Gaming RDY L20IRG201 is available for $1800.
