The GeekaPC King build is an awesome 1440p gaming PC encased inside the Montech King 65 Pro chassis. Gamers have the choice between the AMD RX 7900 XT and NVIDIA RTX 5070 graphics cards, which are great GPU options capable of providing solid framerates in modern titles at 1440p with decent legs in 4K.
At the core of the King build is the AMD Ryzen 5 7600. This processor is a firm favourite on the GeekaWhat Youtube channel due to its versatility and substantial value. The Ryzen 5 7600 has a low power budget, allowing it to consistently maintain its 5.1GHz boost clock speed, making it a solid competitor in games when paired with the right graphics card.
The Montech HyperFlow 360 ARGB keeps the Ryzen 5 7600 cool. This 360mm liquid cooling unit has a vibrant RGB panel on top of the CPU pump, and the large radiator ensures quiet operation under load. The RGB lighting is also fully programmable, allowing you to change colours and lighting effects across the entire build.
The King 65 Pro provides a home for all of these components. It is the smaller sibling of the extremely popular King 95 Pro, which is a go-to recommendation for those looking to pick up a robust mid-range case. The King 65 Pro has all of the great features and design qualities of the King 95 Pro but in a smaller form factor. It utilises dual tempered glass panels, tool-less mechanisms to quickly release the outer panels, and three pre-installed fans that provide ample airflow straight out of the box.
For RAM, this build uses a Corsair Vengeance DDR5 RGB kit, rated at 32GB (2 x 16GB). This memory is incredibly reliable and offers a solid speed and latency. The capacity can also be bumped up to 64GB (2 x 32GB) for those looking to need a bit more power from the RAM.
Regarding storage, the Crucial P3 Plus 1TB has returned. This Gen4 NVMe M.2 SSD is used regularly across many of our mid-range and budget PC builds on the GeekaWhat YouTube channel due to its robust performance and competitive pricing. This build uses 1TB for the base configuration, but there are 2TB and 4TB capacities available for gamers who need more storage space.
Finally, this gaming PC is powered by the Corsair RM750e power supply. It offers 750W of power, which is more than ample for the parts we've chosen. This unit is well-built, provides an 80 Plus Gold efficiency rating, and uses the ATX 3.0 standard, which offers streamlined cabling for both AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards.
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 Gigabyte RX 7900 GRE Gaming OC. GeekaPC reserves the right to use any model of the RX 7900 GRE/XT or RTX 5070 as selected, depending on real-time availability.
