Viking Five | NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti 16GB + Ryzen 7 7800X3D | Ready-to-Go Gaming PC | PC36

🌲 Viking Five

Compact, refined, ready for 4K.

Viking Five brings the RTX 5070 Ti and its 16GB of GDDR7 into the Viking range — a card built for consistent 1440p ultra performance with confident 4K capability in most modern titles. Paired with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, this is a build with no obvious weak point. We've also moved to an SFX power supply at this tier, which keeps the build tidier inside, accommodates larger GPUs more gracefully, and looks substantially cleaner through any side panel. All inside the same walnut-fronted mATX chassis that defines the series.

We designed the Viking series for those who value premium performance, but in an attractive, grown-up package that doesn't scream "gamer."

🧬 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.

👁️ Transparency notes

• Photos and graphics are representative — the build you receive will match the spec listed here. Some visual details (component branding, exact fan models, etc.) may vary depending on stock availability at the time of build, but performance and quality remain consistent across all units.
• Some components (RAM brand, NVMe brand, motherboard model within the chipset and VRM specification) may vary based on supplier availability at the time of build. We only use components that meet our specification and trusted brand criteria — see our Trusted brands page for the full list.
• Glass panel note: Photos may show a tempered glass side panel — this is an optional upgrade. The standard Viking Five configuration ships with the mesh side panel, which complements the walnut front for a clean, understated look without showing off the internals. A glass panel is available as a quick-add upgrade on the listing options if you prefer the showcase look.
