Quick answer
CyberPowerPC slashed the price of its prebuilt PC featuring an Intel Core Ultra 9 285 and AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB by $500, bringing the total to $1,849.
In 2026, building a PC has become both more complex and significantly more expensive due to rising component prices. Prebuilt systems from manufacturers remain a cost-effective alternative, especially when major discounts are involved. CyberPowerPC now offers a desktop featuring an Intel Core Ultra 9 285 processor with 24 cores (8 performance and 16 efficiency cores), delivering strong performance in multi-threaded tasks under Windows 11.
The AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB in this build delivers performance comparable to an NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 8GB but falls short of higher-end models like the RX 9070 and RTX 5070. With 2,048 stream processors and 16GB of VRAM, the card consistently delivers around 60 FPS in 1440p gaming at ultra settings. For 4K resolution, settings would need to be reduced, but this remains an excellent mid-range option.
The bundle also includes 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 2TB SSD, making this build versatile for both gaming and productivity tasks. An alternative configuration with a Core Ultra 7 265KF processor and RX 9070 XT GPU is priced at $1,999 but includes the same 32GB DDR5 and 2TB SSD. Both options are part of the Intel Gamer Days promotion and come with two free games: *Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis* and *Star Wars Galactic Racer*.
