Using the Nvidia RTX 5060 and an Intel Core i5-1440F processor, there's plenty of gaming enjoyment to be had with this iBuyPower Element SE gaming PC. It's built to game at 1080p and can even push up to 1440p when utilizing DLSS 4, to ensure that performance is stable and image quality remains sharp.

While the GPU's 8GB of VRAM might be a dealbreaker for some, you may be surprised at what it can achieve when gaming at 1080p with reasonable graphics settings in demanding games.

With an Nvidia RTX 5060 GPU, Intel's Core i5-14400F processor, and 16GB of DDR5 RAM, the iBuyPower Element SE gaming PC is an absolute steal at $779.99. This is around the same price region as a PS5 Pro, but with the freedom to adjust graphics settings, and utilize DLSS 4 for improved performance and image quality – and it's a gem of a pre-built PC, considering rising RAM prices.

For around the same price as Sony's PS5 Pro console, the iBuyPower Element SE RTX 5060 gaming PC can net you very similar performance (if not better), with the added benefits of freedom that the PC ecosystem offers.

RAM is also on the way up in price, and this configuration features 16GB of DDR5 RAM, which alone, I've seen cost more than an entire entry-level PC so far. A big bonus here is that you'd be well equipped in the CPU, SSD, and RAM department, if you decided that you want to upgrade your GPU later down the line to a high-end one.

It's also worth noting that this comes with a gaming keyboard and mouse, so all you'll have to prepare is acquire a desk and a monitor, and you're ready to go!
