In a world of PC hardware pricing gone mad, the humble pre-built remains a bastion of decent value and minimal stress in 2026. With 32GB of RAM now costing no less than $350, GPUs scarce and overpriced, and storage also falling foul of the AI price crunch, sometimes you just need to buy a ready-made gaming rig. Right now at Newegg, you can grab this MSI Aegis RS2 with Intel Core Ultra 7 265K, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, 2TB SSD, and RTX 5070 for just $1,899, a saving of $800.

Whilst this rig is a little more modest than anything sporting one of the top-end 50-series GPUs or AMD's blistering X3D processors, this gaming PC promises very solid performance in a stylish package from a trusted big-name brand. For your troubles, you'll also get two free games, Resident Evil Requiem, and a choice from Intel's 2025 holiday bundle, which includes Battlefield 6.

The Intel Core 7 265K is definitely not the fastest gaming CPU on the market. However, it does stand out as a great value play in our CPU hierarchy. As you can see, performance in our gaming testing shows it follows pretty close behind the Core 9 285K, outstripping the Ryzen 7 5800X3D with ease. Talking about the FPS/$ value is a little harder in a pre-built machine, but the 265K packs a real punch when it comes to value.

The star of this build is the RTX 5070, however, which performed well in our testing as a solid mid-range card capable of 1440p performance.

Getting hold of this card at MSRP is impossible these days, so buying one pre-installed inside a PC is one of the best ways to secure a good deal. This PC is also complemented by 32GB of DDR5 RAM and 2TB of NVMe storage. These parts are some of the hardest-hit by the ongoing memory crisis. As mentioned, you can't buy 32GB of RAM for less than $350, and 2TB of decent SSD storage will easily set you back $250 these days. Factor in $600 worth of RAM and SSD, and this build starts to look pretty enticing.

The PC also comes with a Z890 motherboard, which gives you 2.5Gb Ethernet and Wi-Fi 7. Cooling is provided by a 360mm liquid cooler, and there's a 750W 80+ Gold PSU to keep everything running. Overall, this is a really solid deal on a pre-built from Newegg that will take a lot of the stress out of trying to build a PC in 2026.
