The Banger in detail: an ASUS gaming PC with RTX 5060 and water cooling
Graphics card: ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5060 8GB OC Edition
The ASUS Dual RTX 5060 8GB OC makes the Banger a comfortable 1080p gaming PC.
The graphics card produces the images on your screen, and no other part has a bigger say in gaming performance.
Built on the Blackwell architecture, it has 8GB of GDDR7 and supports DLSS 4 with frame generation. It is the engine of this RTX 5060 gaming PC, designed for Full HD with plenty of detail.
Ideal for Fortnite, Valorant, CS2 and recent games at 1080p.
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 5600
Six cores, twelve threads: the Ryzen 5 5600 keeps pace with the RTX 5060.
The processor lines up work for the graphics card and runs everything happening in the background.
This AM4 chip boosts up to 4.4GHz. With water cooling on top, it stays calm even through long gaming sessions.
Memory: 16GB DDR4
16GB of DDR4, so you can game without closing your apps.
RAM temporarily holds whatever your game needs right now.
It is the amount most current games recommend, and the ASUS motherboard leaves room to add more later.
Storage: 1TB M.2 SSD
1TB of M.2 storage to install several big games without juggling.
The SSD holds Windows, your games and files, and cuts loading times.
1TB is enough for a varied game library. The M.2 SSD mounts straight onto the motherboard, which keeps the inside of the case tidy.
Motherboard: ASUS PRIME A520M-R
The ASUS PRIME A520M-R links up every part of this ASUS gaming PC.
The motherboard connects the processor, memory, storage and graphics card.
With an AM4 socket and A520 chipset, it takes the Ryzen 5 5600 and DDR4 memory. Together with the graphics card and the water cooler, it is one of the Banger's three ASUS parts.
Cooling: ASUS PRIME LC II 240 ARGB water cooler
A 240mm ASUS water cooler with ARGB lighting.
Liquid cooling carries heat from the processor to a fan-cooled radiator, away from the socket.
With its 240mm radiator, this AIO turns the Banger into a water cooled gaming PC that looks clean and uncluttered inside. The ARGB lighting finishes off the look of the case.
Power supply: Xigmatek Hydra 650W 80+ Bronze
650W with 80+ Bronze certification to power the whole build.
The power supply gives every component a stable voltage, even as the load climbs in game.
That leaves a comfortable margin for the RTX 5060 and Ryzen 5 5600, and the 80+ Bronze rating keeps wasted energy down.
Case: Xigmatek Aqua M
The Xigmatek Aqua M puts the hardware on display.
The case protects the build and steers cool air towards the components.
This micro-ATX case with panoramic, fish-tank style glass shows off the graphics card and the ARGB water cooler, giving the Banger real visual character.
