RECENT ANNOUNCEMENTS
The iBuyPower Limited Edition Honkai Star Rail "Firefly" Prebuilt Gaming PC Is Now Available
Now Available: Hyte Y70 Honkai Star Rail Themed Case
What's really special about this case is the custom themed artwork. The system is housed in a gorgeous Hyte Y70 computer chassis adorned with artwork inspired by Honkai Star Rail's 5-star character Firefly. The artwork is professionally UV printed onto all three glass panels; they don't peel off like vinyl stickers and they're applied on the interior side of the panels so they're less prone to scratching. The case's blue and sliver color scheme tastefully matches Firefly's aesthetic.

You'd expect a gaming PC named after one of the more meta characters in HSR to be quite powerful, and iBuypower certainly doesn't disappoint. The Y70 gaming PC is equipped with a liquid cooled AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 16GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-6000MHz RAM, and 2TB SSD.

AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is the best gaming CPU for most people
The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is considered to be one of the best gaming processors on the market and outperforms any Intel or AMD non-X3D chip in games thanks to AMD's 3D-V-Cache technology. It only has eight cores, but that makes no difference in gaming since most games can't utilize more than eight cores (if that) anyways. That's why its gaming performance is nearly identical to the pricier 9900X3d and 9950X3D.

The GeForce RTX 5080 GPU will run any game in 4K
Performance-wise, the RTX 5080 is no slouch. It's one of the fastest cards on the market, bested only by the $2,000 RTX 5090 and the discontinued $1,600 RTX 4090. This is a phenomenal card for playing the latest, most demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing enabled. The recent DLSS 4.5 update has further optimized multi-frame gen and upscaling so you can push really high framerates even in 4K. More games are supporting this feature, including Doom: The Dark Ages, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Borderlands 4, Stellar Blade, and, of course, Honkai: Star Rail. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review for our hands-on impressions.

You can also get the case by itself
You can also build out your own system using this case. Hyte, iBuypower's sister site, is currently selling the standalone {LINK REMOVED} with free shipping. If you're looking for additional {LINK REMOVED}, Hyte also sells a matching keycap set, fan grill set, and and extra large mousepad.

The 27" Samsung QD-OLED Gaming Monitor Drops to $350 and Includes Resident Evil: Requiem for Free
27" Samsung Odyssey OLED G5 Gaming Monitor for $349.99
Free Resident Evil: Requiem game code with purchase

The Samsung Odyssey OLED G5 (G50SF) is a 2025 model 27" display with a 2560x1440 or QHD resolution, measuring out to a respectable pixel density of 108ppi. It's equipped with a quantum dot OLED panel that boasts a near-instantaneous 0.03ms response time, near infinite contrast ratio, and true black levels. QD OLED panels are considered better than traditional W-OLED panels because they are brighter and offer a wider color gamut.

This monitor also features a fast 180Hz refresh rate and Nvidia G-Sync compatibility. If you pair it with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card or higher, you should be able to hit that 180fps ceiling on older games like Fortnite, Apex Legends, and Valorant. For newer games like Battlefield 6 or Black Ops 7, you might need to step up to an RTX 5070 Ti or Radeon 9070 XT to achieve that 180fps ceiling. The display comes equipped with both DisplayPort and HDMI ports.

As mentioned earlier, this monitor has a 3 year warranty that includes OLED burn-in coverage. That's still pretty uncommon across most OLED brands, especially when you're looking at the less expensive models. Most come with just a 1 year warranty with no burn-in protection.

The Samsung OLED G5 has joined a host of Amazon gaming monitor deals that {LINK REMOVED}, the next mainline release in the Resident Evil franchise. The game on its own starts at $69.99 for the Standard Edition, so the deal gets you that much more in savings as well as a fresh AAA release to test out your new display. Check out our video review above or, if you prefer, the Resident Evil: Requiem written review.
