It’s a perfectly balanced chip that can breeze through the latest games at high settings without much of a hitch. Paired with the 11th gen Intel Core i7, you’ll find yourself able to dial down settings and prioritise frame rates in games that need them, like action and esports titles such as DOTA 2, Call of Duty, Rocket League and Apex Legends, for example. This will let you take advantage of that edge to edge 1080p IPS display and the 144Hz refresh rate, ideal to see more of the action during fast gameplay. There’s also 16GB of memory and a 512GB NVMe SSD, which is plenty to get you started with your Steam and Xbox Game Pass favourites. The RAM makes this ideal for heavy workstation use too, whether you’re planning to edit videos and images, or to use during work hours.
