This Presidents Day, shopping for an iBuyPower gaming desktop feels like an extreme sport with the $1,899 Element 9 Pro R07 and $2,099.99 Slate. Both promise blistering 1440p gaming thanks to AMD Ryzen 7 processorsâthe 7800X3D and the slightly more elite 9800X3D. The Element boasts 32GB of DDR6 6000MHz RAM, an Asus B650EM Max Gaming motherboard, and a Radeon 9070 XT GPU that arrives lovingly uninstalled, handed to brave gamers alongside a PDF manual because why not add a mini DIY component? The $1899 dealâwith a 'STARS' couponâcomes with rainbow RGB liquid cooling, an 850W power supply, and a three-year labor warranty that hints you might actually need it. Meanwhile, the Slate tones down to DDR5 5200MHz RAM and a slightly smaller 750W power supply, sacrificing one year off that warranty, presumably expecting you to be less rough.
