iBUYPOWER Slate
Score: 80/100
iBUYPOWER Y40 PRO
Score: 90/100Rankings
The Y40 PRO blends a high-performance Ryzen 7 7800X3D with an RTX 5060Ti in a compact, glass-front chassis, offering strong gaming and VR capabilities out of the box. Noise, limited expandability, and a non-modular PSU keep it from being a true premium build.
The Slate combines a 20-core Intel Core Ultra 7 265F with an RTX 5060, 32 GB DDR5 RAM and fast NVMe storage, delivering solid 1080p-1440p gaming and content-creation performance. Its modest PSU, air cooling limits, and Wi-Fi quality are the primary drawbacks.
