At $820, this isn't the cheapest RTX 5060 gaming PC I've seen but it does have one major plus: 32 GB of DDR5-6000 RAM

RAM prices are making it increasingly harder to find great deals on budget gaming PCs, but they are still around, like this one from Yeiyan. The fact that it comes with 32 GB of fast DDR5 means you'll be able to upgrade it with ease over the next few years.

Key specs: RTX 5060 | Core i5 14400F | 32 GB DDR5-6000 | 1 TB SSD

It wasn't that long ago when you didn't have to worry about what type or how much RAM a budget gaming PC had, because the stuff was cheap enough to easily do an upgrade. Now that's out of the question, due to the global memory shortage crisis, it's now super important to make sure you pick a new PC with the right type and right amount of RAM first.



As for the rest of the PC, it's standard fare at this price point. You get a last-gen Intel Core i5 14400F processor, which is a rebranded Core i5 12600K with slightly slower clock speeds. While it's an older architecture underneath the heatspreader, it's still pretty decent at gaming and an ideal match for the graphics card in this PC.

It's a GeForce RTX 5060, and that GPU is great for 1080p gaming as long as you don't go wild with quality settings, especially ray tracing. You can still crank up the settings in lots of games and even use it at 1440p, though you will need to use DLSS 4 upscaling and frame generation to help out with the frame rate.

As with all budget gaming PCs, you only get a 1 TB SSD. It will fill up very quickly, because today's game sizes mostly err towards a humongous amount of terabytes. The specifications for the Yeiyan gaming PC don't mention what motherboard it uses, but most boards these days have two M.2 slots for storage, so you should be able to buy another larger SSD for the second slot.

Don't use the images to figure it out, mind, because they're all very generic. For example, the internal shots show no SSDs installed whatsoever, and the 'GeForce RTX' graphics card also has no power cable socket, which all RTX 5060s have.

Rounding off the details, you're probably going to get a very basic air cooler for the CPU, but that's fine because it only uses 65 W of power, and assuming that the case is the same as the one in the picture, you'll have four fans to keep everything cool inside (even if the front ones are slightly blocked by plastic).

In other words, it's just a regular, cheap gaming PC that so happens to have bags of fast RAM. That means it will be perfect for upgrading over the next couple of years because the memory sticks will work in better and newer motherboards. Heck, you could throw everything away and just keep the RAM.

Silly, I know, but those are the times we live in.

Nick, gaming, and computers all first met in the early 1980s. After leaving university, he became a physics and IT teacher and started writing about tech in the late 1990s. That resulted in him working with MadOnion to write the help files for 3DMark and PCMark. After a short stint working at Beyond3D.com, Nick joined Futuremark (MadOnion rebranded) full-time, as editor-in-chief for its PC gaming section, YouGamers. After the site shutdown, he became an engineering and computing lecturer for many years, but missed the writing bug. Cue four years at TechSpot.com covering everything and anything to do with tech and PCs. He freely admits to being far too obsessed with GPUs and open-world grindy RPGs, but who isn't these days?
