PCSpecialist Zircon Goliath : Ryzen 9 7950X3D / RTX 4090
In the past, I used to think that pre-built gaming PCs were for rich kids and people who didn’t perhaps have the technical knowledge or confidence to build a PC for themselves. But pre-built gaming PCs have recently become much more relevant to the enthusiast market. During the great graphics card shortage of late 2020/2021 pre-built systems provided a way to get your hands on a high end GPU and recently with hardware prices fluctuating there are some really great value pre-built bargains to be had. Today we look at the pinnacle in pre-built gaming PCs with the Zircon Goliath from PCSpecialist packing an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU and an Nvidia RTX 4090 graphics card, so let’s find out just how good this ultra high-end gaming PC really is.
