Under $1,500 for any gaming PC is a smart deal, especially one that features an AMD 3D V-Cache CPU at its core. The 7800X3D is a processor that continues to deliver brilliant performance for serious gamers, even if its been superseded by newer chips like the 9800X3D and 9850X3D. That said, it continues to be a formidable force that few others can rival, outstripping plenty of its newer Intel rivals, as our AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D review shows.

If you're buying a gaming PC right now, you can't find a better alternative than to buy a rig with an AMD X3D chip installed. The 7800X3D is an eight-core processor, with all eight of its cores able to take advantage of a boosted 96MB of L3 cache. The L3 cache is important, as the improved memory here reduces latency significantly, limiting how often the CPU has to fall back on using the slower system RAM while you're playing games, giving you higher and more stable frame rates overall.

It's rare to see a PC this cheap fitted with one, as builders will often choose non-X3D options like the 9700X instead. With the 7800X3D installed here, you're going to be better placed to have a machine that will have the power and performance to play modern games for years into the future. As our CPU benchmarks below show, the 7800X3D continues to rank highly, with few models able to compete with it.

It isn't just the 7800X3D that is keeping this rig afloat, however. This iBuyPower PC comes with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070, which sits in the middle-of-the-pack for performance in this current generation for gaming.

Specs-wise, the RTX 5070 has 6,144 CUDA cores and 12GB of GDDR7 VRAM, along with a GPU clock speed of 2,512 MHz. Expect to see a considerable boost over slower GPUs like the RTX 5060 and RTX 5050 here, especially if you are ditching the 1080p display for gaming at 1440p.

4K is a possibility here, too, depending on the game you're playing, especially if you're planning on taking advantage of this Blackwell GPU's Nvidia DLSS 4 support. Multi-frame generation is the key here, allowing you to hit those high frame rate numbers with the aid of AI-generated frames in those crunch moments, with your GPU supported ably by the performance offered by the 7800X3D.

There are a couple of compromises that are worth mentioning, even if they aren't deal breakers. You're only getting 16GB of DDR5 RAM, rated at 5,200 MT/s. That's pretty slow for DDR5, but much faster than DDR4 speeds, which typically cap out at 3,600 MT/s. The capacity, meanwhile, is a step back from plenty of the 32GB builds we've been seeing, but given how much RAM is costing these days, expect this to be a compromise you might have to make if you want a build under $1,500 in the future.

Storage isn't a problem, though, with a 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD included here, offering Gen 4 speeds, and enough space for a couple of big modern games. This rig also includes a 360mm AIO liquid cooler as standard, installed in one of iBuyPower's own PC case designs, with a wrap-around front and side glass panel. iBuyPower has also thrown in a keyboard and mouse with the build to get you started.

All in all, the $1,449 sale price for this iBuyPower Element Pro gaming PC is a seriously good one in the modern climate. The AI boom has forced hardware prices sharply upward over the last six months, but this sub-$1,500 rig shows that gaming at 1440p and 4K at this price point on modern hardware isn't an impossibility (at least for the moment). This $550 discount won't be around forever, so if you're interested, make sure to get your order in quickly.
