Processor Performance

Intel Core i5-14400F – 10 Cores and 16 Threads

At the heart of this gaming PC is the Intel Core i5-14400F, a 14th Generation desktop processor based on Intel’s hybrid core design. It features 10 cores, including 6 Performance-cores and 4 Efficient-cores, with a total of 16 threads. This gives the system strong performance for gaming while also handling background applications such as Discord, browsers, game launchers, recording tools, and productivity software.

The Intel Core i5-14400F can reach up to 4.70GHz Max Turbo Frequency and includes 20MB Intel Smart Cache. It has a 65W processor base power and up to 148W maximum turbo power. Since this is an F-series processor, it does not include integrated graphics, which makes it ideal for a gaming PC that uses a dedicated graphics card like the ASUS RTX 5060.

Graphics Card

ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5060 OC Edition 8GB GDDR7

Graphics performance is powered by the ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5060 OC Edition 8GB GDDR7. This modern NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics card is designed for strong gaming performance, AI-enhanced features, and high-efficiency graphics processing. It comes with 3840 CUDA cores, 8GB GDDR7 video memory, a 128-bit memory interface, and 28Gbps memory speed.

The ASUS RTX 5060 OC Edition supports PCI Express 5.0, offers a boost clock of up to 2565MHz in OC mode, and supports digital maximum resolution up to 7680 x 4320. Display connectivity includes 1x HDMI 2.1b and 3x DisplayPort 2.1b, with support for up to 4 displays. This makes the GPU suitable for modern gaming monitors, high-refresh displays, and multi-monitor setups.

ASUS Dual Cooling Design

The ASUS Dual RTX 5060 uses a compact 2.5-slot cooling design with dual fans for efficient airflow and improved thermal performance. Its size makes it compatible with many gaming cases while still providing strong cooling for daily gaming use. The card also requires a recommended 550W power supply and uses 1x 8-pin power connector.

Motherboard

ASUS B760M-AYW WIFI D4 II

The system is built on the ASUS B760M-AYW WIFI D4 II, an Intel B760 micro-ATX motherboard designed for Intel LGA1700 processors. It supports Intel 14th, 13th, and 12th Gen Core processors, making it a suitable match for the Intel Core i5-14400F.

This motherboard includes DDR4 memory support, PCIe 5.0 x16 for the graphics card, two PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots for fast NVMe storage, four SATA 6Gb/s ports, Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet, WiFi 6, HDMI output, front USB 5Gbps support, and Aura Sync RGB support. These features make it a strong upgrade over entry-level H610 boards, especially for users who want better connectivity, WiFi, and more storage expansion.

Connectivity and Stability

The ASUS B760M-AYW WIFI D4 II is designed with practical cooling and control features, including a VRM heatsink, PCH heatsink, hybrid fan headers, Fan Xpert 2+, and ASUS Aura Sync support. With WiFi 6 and 2.5Gb Ethernet, this motherboard gives the system strong network flexibility for gaming, downloads, streaming, and everyday use.

Memory and Storage

16GB Lexar THOR DDR4 RAM

This gaming PC includes 16GB Lexar THOR DDR4 RAM, installed as 2x8GB for dual-channel performance. Dual-channel memory helps improve system responsiveness compared to a single-stick configuration and gives the PC enough memory for gaming, browsing, office work, and multitasking.

Lexar THOR DDR4 memory features a space gray aluminum heat spreader designed for heat dissipation and improved airflow. It also supports Intel XMP 2.0, which helps compatible systems run memory profiles more easily. The RAM in this build is listed as 3600MHz, while actual running speed may depend on motherboard BIOS settings, CPU memory controller support, and compatibility.

Kingston NV3 500GB NVMe SSD

Storage is handled by the Kingston NV3 500GB NVMe SSD, a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe drive in the M.2 2280 form factor. The 500GB model is officially listed with sequential speeds up to 5,000MB/s read and 3,000MB/s write.

This fast NVMe SSD helps the system feel quick and responsive, with faster Windows boot times, shorter game loading screens, smoother software launches, and better overall performance compared to traditional hard drives.

Cooling and Power

DeepCool AG400 CPU Cooler

The CPU is cooled by the DeepCool AG400, a single-tower air cooler with a 120mm PWM fan and four 6mm heat pipes. DeepCool lists the AG400 with fan speed from 500 to 2000 RPM, airflow up to 75.89 CFM, air pressure of 2.53 mmAq, and noise level up to 31.6 dB(A).

This cooler is a strong choice for the Intel Core i5-14400F, helping maintain stable temperatures during gaming, multitasking, and daily use while keeping the build clean and reliable.

Thermalright TG-650 650W 80 Plus Gold White PSU

Power is supplied by the Thermalright TG-650 650W 80 Plus Gold White power supply. It is listed with 650W wattage, 80 Plus Gold efficiency, full-modular cabling, 100–240Vac input voltage, a 120mm fan, and multiple protection features including OPP, OVP, OTP, OCP, SCP, and UVP.

A 650W Gold-rated power supply is a suitable match for this configuration, giving stable power for the Intel Core i5 processor, ASUS RTX 5060 graphics card, motherboard, NVMe SSD, cooling fan, and case fans.

Case and ARGB Design

Thermaltake ARGB Case with 5 Fans

The build is completed inside a Thermaltake ARGB gaming case with 5 fans. The case gives the system a modern gaming appearance with bright ARGB lighting and strong airflow for daily use. The 5-fan setup helps move air through the system to support the CPU cooler, graphics card, motherboard, and storage during gaming sessions.

Since the exact Thermaltake case model was not provided, the safest product-page wording is Thermaltake ARGB Case with 5 Fans without adding model-specific claims such as exact dimensions, radiator support, glass panel type, or front I/O layout.
