...the £3,299 rig succeeds in demonstrating chart-topping performance more often than not.
PCSpeciailst's intention with the Infinity LC base unit is to showcase the best of AMD's current CPU and GPU hardware. To that end, the £3,299 rig succeeds in demonstrating chart-topping performance more often than not.
There's still nothing better than Ryzen 9 5950X when it comes to multi-core capabilities on a consumer platform, and for enthusiast gamers, the liquid-cooled Radeon RX 6900 XT represents the best that team red has to offer.
An inevitable price premium is attached to such top-end parts, yet if you're willing and eager, there are few boxes left unchecked. 32GB of RAM and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD are expected at this end of the market, cooling is more than adequate, and there are few areas in which we feel the Infinity LC falls short. The default fan configuration really should to be quieter, and we're getting to the point where systems of this ilk ought to feature faster 2.5GbE networking as a minimum standard.
Bottom line: a powerhouse of a system that's a couple of refinements short of being brilliant.
The Good
The Bad

AMD's best CPU and GPU combine well
Fast PCIe 4.0 storage and 32GB RAM
