iBUYPOWER, known for its readily accessible prebuilt gaming PCs is launching a new set of machines themed after the Valorant Champions Tour. If you’re a Valorant fan in need of a new rig, then iBUYPOWER’s latest options may be what you’re looking for. Not only will they probably be suitable for your desired style, but they should be able to handle your gaming needs from a performance standpoint.
There are two rigs in this new lineup and both use the Scale case that iBUYPOWER offers. They’re also both relatively affordable and are on sale as of this week. You can pick up the new Scale models starting at $899.99 from Best Buy or bump up to the $1,299.99 model which comes with more powerful specs.
The former comes equipped with an AMD Ryzen 5 7600 CPU, 16GB of RAM, and an AMD Radeon RX 7600 GPU. There’s also a 1TB SSD for game storage, and plenty of fans and venting for cooling. One thing to keep in mind is that neither of these PCs is going to be your top-of-the-line rig built for bleeding-edge performance with maxed-out graphics. The price should give that away. However, iBUYPOWER does build a solid gaming PC and these aren’t expected to be any different. As long as your expectations on what the components can deliver are in check.
If you don’t mind paying a little extra, you can for the other Scale model that comes with 32GB of RAM, an AMD Ryzen 7 7700 CPU, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti GPU. Storage space is the same at 1TB.
iBUYPOWER Valorant PCs feature styling based on the VCT Americas
In truth, the styling is pretty minimal and it doesn’t encompass the whole case. But that’s precisely what some people are going to like about it. There’s a little VCT Americas bar that drapes across the front bottom corner and then a larger panel across the bottom side of the glass. There are also matching orange feet on the underside of the case. And the whole thing comes together with some VCT-themed lighting. You can change the lighting, however.
The Scale rigs come with ample clearance for swapping out parts when it comes time to upgrade. For instance, let’s say you feel like upgrading to a more powerful GPU in a year or two. You should have no trouble fitting any of the latest cards in there. These PCs also support coolers up to 360mm so you’ve got room for lots of parts variety.
