One of the best gaming PC deals just got cheaper, and it supports 4K
Table of Contents
Buying a reasonably priced 4K gaming PC is tricky. There are plenty of options, and new GPUs only add more complexity. During the RX 9070 XT launch, we looked at the available gaming PC deals and picked the four best. The VTG Gaming PC we chose still stands out is 4K-capable and remains discounted.
Putting “Gaming PC” and “affordability” together would make most enthusiasts look to AMD builds. And with good reason. This VTG Ryzen 7 9700X and Radeon RX 7800 XT system pairs two price-conscious components and it’s now even cheaper – at $284 less than its regular $1,400 price.

Why we love this VTG Gaming PC
In 4K gaming up to mid settings, and for excellent maxed-out 1440p gaming, the RX 7800 XT is a card that can deliver, while the Ryzen 9 9700X is a well-powered CPU that can handle the needs of a mid-range gaming PC and day-to-day system. In fact, unless you’re planning to stream – where the RX 9070 cards (or NVidia’s Nvenc-enabled 40/50-series) will provide better support – you’ve all you need.
- Socket AM5 – Built on AMD’s Socket AM5 platform, you get DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 support, and a future-facing PC you can upgrade in the coming years.
- Latest generation CPU – AMD’s Ryzen 7 9700X is an 8-core, 16-thread CPU with up to 5.5GHz max boost. A highly power-efficient processor, capable of beating the long-standing favorite of gamers, the 5800 X3D.
- 4K gaming – The AMD RX 7800 XT 16GB is a 4K-capable card far more affordable than other options from AMD and Nvidia.
- RAM – This VTG system includes 32GB DDR5 RAM, which is standard for gaming PCs now and should support the system well.
- Storage – A 1TB NVMe SSD is installed, providing decent space for games and other files alongside the PC’s Windows 11 install.
- Cooling – VTG has provided solid cooling solutions for the system with a 240mm all-in-one CPU cooler, and 7x ARGB fans (3x top, 3x bottom, 1x exhaust)
- PSU – As with the system being Socket AM5, the installed 850W 80-Plus gold PSU will support future upgrades, be that additional drives, a more powerful graphics card, or a new CPU.
Who is this VTG Gaming PC deal for?
Anyone looking for a price-conscious 4K gaming system may like this deal. A solid combination of parts, and an improved discount from when we first spotted it, this VTG Ryzen 7 9700X and Radeon RX 7800 XT gaming PC will offer enjoyable gaming performance at a decent price, considering its discount.
If you’re upgrading from an older-generation gaming PC, perhaps with a 5800 X3D CPU and RX 6000 series AMD card (or a 30-series Nvidia option like the RTX 3060) you’ll see a clear performance improvement. Or, if you’re moving from something older, even more so!
