PCSpecialist Topaz Spark R Review

Introduction and Technical Specifications

Introduction

A common theme is that if there is a big new item of hardware on the market then PCSpecialist will build a system to let you use it. The most recent release is the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT. It’s no surprise then when the Topaz Spark R appeared in our office sporting this latest Radeon GPU.

On the off chance you’re new to the builds that PCSpecialist do, let’s quickly run down their key features. The things that they always do. Firstly, you get all the accessories and elements you’d have if you brought the components yourself. Secondly PCSpecialist are incredible at giving you maximum value for money. There is never a part included just to jack the price up. No choices made for profit reasons. Every system, and there are many, is perfectly chosen.

Thirdly, and this is where they score highly, if you feel they aren’t perfectly chosen you can swap out anything you like for almost anything else you’d prefer. Best of all, the price you pay doesn’t affect the attention to detail you receive. This Topaz Spark R system, priced at a mere £1349, is built as well as their flagship offerings. You’ll never be punished for having a smaller budget.

So what makes the Topaz Spark R attractive? It has the excellent Ryzen 5 9600X processor. A stalwart of affordable builds. You have 32GB of RAM to ensure you never run out, and a Samsung 990 EVO M.2 so that if Windows does need the pagefile it’ll be blisteringly quick. And finally, the newest addition to the AMD Radeon range, the RX 9060 XT. Very much a graphics card designed for 1440P gaming. Let’s check it out.
