GeekaPC 'Blizzard' (RX 9060 XT / RTX 5060)

The GeekaPC 'Blizzard' is a system with a small footprint that packs a punch. Featuring a snowy aesthetic, this build offers gamers the choice between an all-white NVIDIA RTX 5060 or AMD RX 9060 XT, both of which are designed to expertly handle 1080p gaming in the latest AAA and Esports titles.

At the cold core of this Blizzard is the AMD Ryzen 5 7600. A firm favourite here at GeekaPC, offering excellent gaming performance across the board. With six cores and twelve threads, the Ryzen 5 7600 is a powerhouse and an excellent option for this budget-oriented system.

Ensuring the Ryzen 5 7600 maintains 'sub-zero' temperatures is the Montech NX400. This air cooler features a meticulously designed heatsink built to keep your CPU nice and cool even when gaming!

Providing a home for all of our components is the Montech King 15 Pro. This is a Micro-ATX version of the King 45 Pro, offering a similar style to the 95 Pro with its curved glass, RGB strip on the front, and plenty of clearance for a massive range of different parts.

For RAM, the Blizzard uses a Kingston Fury Beast kit, rated at 32GB (2 x 16GB). This memory is incredibly reliable and offers solid speed and latency.

Regarding storage, we're using either the Lexar EQ790, or the BIWIN Black Opal NV7400. Both drives are solid Gen4 options, offering great read and write speeds. Gamers have the choice between, 1TB, 2TB and 4TB capacities, depending on how many games you plan on installing.

Powering this system is the MSI MAG A650BNL White. This is a non-modular power supply offering 650W of juice for all of your components. This is a great entry-level PSU for this awesome white build.

This build has a dedicated video on the GeekaWhat YouTube channel where the host, James Cousins, details the entire step-by-step process. He covers each component's pros (and cons), along with a suite of gaming benchmarks at the end, providing an idea of how this system performs.

CPU (Processor): AMD Ryzen 5 7600
The AMD Ryzen 5 7600 is a fantastic CPU when it comes to gaming at 1080p and 1440p. The reason we did not opt for the newer Ryzen 5 9600X instead is due to the limited performance upside.

CPU Cooler: Montech NX400
This single air tower cooler features a meticulous heatsink design, offering robust thermals. It's all-white fan, matches the bright aesthetic of the build.

Motherboard: Gigabyte B850M Eagle WiFi6E
When it comes to white-themed PC components, we are continually impressed by Gigabyte's ever-growing lineup of great-looking boards and GPUs.

RAM: Kingston Fury Beast
Kingston's Fury Beast DDR5 kit offers solid and reliable performance for top-end gaming. Equipped with a blackout heatspreader, these DIMMs offer a stealthy look that blends in well with dark systems!

SSD: Lexar EQ790 / Biwin Black Opal NV7400
Both of these Lexar drives are excellent additions to any system. Read and write speeds surpassing 5 Gigabytes per second, they're reliable and resilient for high-framerate gaming!

GPU (Option 1): AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT
The AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT is one of AMD's budget-oriented options of 2025. Equipped with 16GB of VRAM, this card is more than capable of offering high framerates at 1440p, putting it on par with NVIDIA's RTX 5060 Ti across a range of AAA titles.

GPU (Option 2): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 is an excellent graphics card for playing your favourite titles at 1080p. With the bonus addition of DLSS and Frame Gen, playing your favourite games at high framerates is no issue for this card!

Case: Montech King 15 Pro
This is the Micro-ATX sibling of the King 45 Pro, sporting curved glass to showcase all your components, an RGB strip on the front, and a robust tool-less design making it easy to swap out parts later down the line.

PSU: MSI MAG A650BNL
An excellent entry-level white PSU providing 650W of juice for your components, which is more than ample for this system!
