๐ฅ Ark Two
1440p territory. Confidently earned.
Ark Two is where the Ark series steps into its stride. The Ryzen 5 7500F and Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB make a genuinely well-matched pairing for 1440p gaming โ the GPU has the VRAM headroom to handle modern titles at high settings without compromise, and the tower cooler keeps the whole system composed under load. All of it sits behind the Pop 2 Vision's panoramic glass, lit by four reverse-blade ARGB fans that earn their place rather than just filling it.
We asked our director, Jack, which PC36 model is the best all rounder for value, performance, and looks. He told us - Ark Two.ย
๐งฌ Built to last, designed to evolve
This system is built on AMD's latest AM5 platform, which offers one of the best upgrade paths available today. That means you can start with a great processor now and still have room to move up the stack later, while keeping the same motherboard, case, power supply and most of your core components. GPU, storage and cooling are all easily upgradable so the system can grow with your needs over time.
๐ Specifications
- ๐ง CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F
Click or tap for deeper spec info
- 6 cores, 12 threads โ a well-balanced processor for 1440p gaming, streaming and everyday use
- The 7500F is chosen here because at the RX 9060 XT performance level the GPU remains the primary driver of frame rates โ spending more on a CPU at this tier returns very little in real-world gaming performance. However if you play a lot of competitive Esports games, the 7800X3D CPU upgrade is a great shout
- AM5 platform means the CPU upgrade path remains open โ a 7800X3D or 9800X3D drops straight in when you're ready
- โ๏ธ CPU cooler: Single tower air cooler with ARGB fan
Click or tap for deeper spec info
- Larger heatsink with ARGB fan attached
- Chosen over a basic stock cooler at this tier for better sustained thermal performance and a cleaner look through the Pop 2 Vision's panoramic glass
- However if you prefer liquid cooling, drop us a live chat and it's easily done
- Brand varies by availability โ support can confirm the exact cooler on request
- ๐ฒ Motherboard: B650 or B850 ATX motherboard
Click or tap for deeper spec info
- Chipset: B650 or B850 โ both are solid AM5 platforms with strong long-term driver and BIOS support - making this about as future proof as it gets
- 8-phase minimum VRM providing stable, reliable power delivery for the 7500F and future upgrades
- There is no appreciable real-world performance difference between B650 and B850 for this spec โ if you specifically want a B850 board, get in touch via live chat and we'll arrange it
- PC36 only uses motherboards chosen for stability and longevity - see our Trusted brands page.
- Support can confirm the exact motherboard model on the day of purchase.
- ๐ Memory / RAM: 32GB (2ร16GB) DDR5-6000 CL36
Click or tap for deeper spec info
- EXPO-tuned dual channel DDR5 at the speed Ryzen responds to best
- 32GB provides comfortable headroom for gaming, streaming and background tasks without bottlenecking elsewhere
- ARGB heatspreaders are not guaranteed on this spec due to stock variability โ if you'd like to lock in ARGB RAM lighting, speak to our support team before ordering and we'll confirm availability

- If your game library is large, a 2TB upgrade is available in the listing options below.
- ๐ฎ Graphics card: Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB
Click or tap for deeper spec info
- AMD's capable mid-range card for 1440p gaming โ handles modern AAA titles at high to ultra settings with genuine headroom. We've even used this at 4K, and it can definitely handle it with careful attention to settings
- 16GB VRAM is a meaningful advantage at this tier โ texture-heavy games and future titles have significantly more room than competing cards at similar price points. Excellent future proofing
- FSR 4 support provides meaningful frame rate headroom in supported titles
- AIB brand varies by availability โ all reputable AIBs perform equally in real-world use
- Support can confirm the exact card model on request.

๐๏ธ Transparency notes
- Product images are representative photos of a similar spec in the same style - your PC will look similar but not identical. Our support team can help clarify anything you're unsure of.
- We sometimes give a performance guarantee rather than specifying an exact brand of certain components. This is due to varying availability from our suppliers. Ask our support team any day you are ready to purchase and we will confirm your exact parts. In any case, we only use parts that make sense, not just to pad our bottom line ๐
๐ ๏ธ Popular upgrade options
- Storage upgrade to 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe: available in the listing options below.

Worth it if your game library is large or you store video and media locally. Modern games regularly exceed 100GB each โ 2TB gives you room to install and forget.
- 850W 80+ Gold PSU: available as a quick-add.
Click or tap for more info
Worth adding if you plan to fit an RTX 5080 class GPU in future โ the PL750D handles everything up to and including the 5070 Ti comfortably, but the 5080 benefits from the extra headroom.
- Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU: available as a quick-add at +ยฃ180.
Click or tap for more info
A meaningful step up in gaming performance, particularly in CPU-sensitive and competitive titles. The 7800X3D's 3D V-Cache delivers a genuine, measurable advantage in gaming โ worth it if high frame rates are a priority from day one.
- AIO cooler upgrade (280mm or 360mm): available via live chat.
Click or tap for more info
The 280mm is our recommendation โ a larger radiator surface means lower fan speeds and quieter running under load, with no downsides for this build. A 360mm is also possible in the Pop 2 Vision if you want maximum cooling headroom โ get in touch and we'll confirm the right configuration for you.
- Sleeved cable extensions: available via live chat at +ยฃ40.
Click or tap for more info
A clean finishing touch that lifts the interior presentation through the panoramic glass panels โ worth it if the build is going somewhere it gets looked at.

Click or tap for more info
A worthwhile step up if 1440p at higher settings or better 4K entry is the goal.
