GeekaPC 'Sub-Zero' (RTX 5070 / RX 9070 XT)

The GeekaPC Sub-Zero is a gorgeous system that strikes a delicate balance between performance and aesthetics. Its cool white style and affinity for low temperatures have netted it the 'Sub-Zero' title, an ideal pickup if you're looking for a lighter-themed gaming PC. This system comes equipped with a frosty white AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT or the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, providing it with the horsepower to run games at high framerates at 1440p with great legs at 4K.

At the core of the Sub-Zero is the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X processor, a six-core, twelve-thread processor that handles gaming and multitasking with ease. Its impressive single-threaded performance ensures high frame rates and snappy responsiveness, no matter the task.

The Corsair Nautilus 360 RS ARGB keeps the Ryzen 5 9600X at glacial temperatures. This stunning 360mm liquid cooler offers three addressable RGB fans and a unique pump cap that lights up when powered on. This liquid cooler is more than ample to handle the Ryzen 5 9600X's temperatures, and its various lighting effects and colours can be easily synced up through your software of choice.

The white Corsair FRAME 4000D ARGB is the chassis housing all the components in this build. This modern chassis offers an airflow focus with a high-ventilation front mesh panel and ample space for fans and other cooling accessories. It comes equipped with three pre-installed addressable RGB fans and a simplified cable management system that keeps your system clean and cable-free.

For the RAM, we've stuck with a firm favourite across many of our builds: the Corsair Vengeance RGB kit. This powerful and reliable RAM kit provides gamers with additional RGB lighting. Those looking to increase the performance of this build even further can also upgrade from 32GB to 64GB.

On the storage front, the Frame PC build is equipped with a 1TB Crucial P310 as standard, providing read speeds up to 7100MB/s and writes up to 6000MB/s. If you're running out of space for your favourite games, you also have the option to increase the capacity from 1TB to 2TB and 4TB for those who need plenty of storage room.

Last but not least is the Corsair RM750e. This is an incredibly reliable and efficient 750W power supply, providing all of the juice for this build. Its Cybenetics Gold efficiency rating ensures that any additional power draw will be minimised across the board.

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.

*Note: The GPU model shown in the video and attached photos is the PowerColor RX 9070 XT Hellhound Spectral White card. GeekaPC reserves the right to use any model of the RX 9070 XT or RTX 5070 in White as selected, depending on real-time availability.
