Table of Contents
Early Prime Day discounts are offering great deals on all things tech, and we came across an exceptional gaming PC that features the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, the best gaming processor, and the best bang-for-your-buck graphics card, the RX 9070 XT. This is the Thermaltake LCGS View 9897X-270, and it has hit its lowest price in 30 days.
Initially, it was priced at $2,399.99, but after the 13% price cut, it has been knocked down to $2,089.99, which is $310 in savings. We think this offer is a steal, especially considering the hardware inside. We’ve reviewed the CPU and GPU, so we’ll showcase the benchmarks to help you make an informed decision as well.

What made this gaming PC deal stand out for us
The reason why we picked out this deal is that we are aware of what the combination of this CPU and GPU is capable of. It is nothing short of amazing, and with it, you should be able to play games at native 4K and handle non-gaming workflows just as efficiently as the Ryzen 7 9700X, if not better, even though during our testing, we saw the 9800X3D outperforming it. Here is what we found:
Ryzen 7 9800X3D
In our 9800X3D review, we saw this CPU delivering 334 and 604 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077 and Counter-Strike 2 while paired with the RTX 4070 Ti. However, when we enabled PBO, the gaming output shot up to 669 FPS in CS2, which is just amazing, but keep in mind that this will also increase its thermal output.
When it came to productivity, Blender Monster managed 146 points, while the 9700X trailed behind with 136 points. We saw the same in the Cinebench R23 multi-core test as well, with both CPUs churning out 22,568 and 22,4755 points, respectively.

RX 9070 XT
The variant we tested was the ASUS Prime RX 9070 XT OC, and while you may not get the same in this gaming PC, it should still help to know what this card can deliver. In Cyberpunk 2077, at 4K, we got 61 FPS, 100 FPS in Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, and 75 FPS in F1 24. It also blazed through the ray tracing and AI tests, leaving the RTX 5070 in the dust, and was the only GPU to come close to the RTX 5090 in the Quantized AI test, which is a feat in and of itself.
Besides the CPU and the GPU, this gaming PC has excellent hardware such as a B850 motherboard, 2TB of storage, 32GB of DDR5 RAM running at 6,400 MT/s, WiFi capabilities, and more. So, there isn’t anything that is lacking, and this PC should deliver the complete package.
