MSI PC with RX 5600 XT graphics card now $899

Building your own gaming PC is harder than ever, and most graphics cards (and even some CPUs) are harder to find at normal prices. Right now, you can get an MSI gaming PC with a Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card for $899.99. That's a $200 discount off the original price, but only a $100 savings from the previous price.

The desktop is powered by an Intel Core i5-9400 processor, a 6-core/6-thread CPU with a base clock of 2.9 GHz, boostable up to 4.1 GHz. It also has 16GB of RAM, a 240GB SSD for Windows, a 7200-RPM 1TB hard drive for gaming, a 550W 80+ Bronze PSU, and an unspecified Intel B365 motherboard.

MSI used an AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card in this build, making this PC a great 1080p gaming machine (some support for 1440p). If you are interested in detailed performance information, you can check out the benchmarks in our original review here. [The Core i5 chip is from 2019, and the RX 5600 XT is over a year old at this time. This discount may be due to MSI getting rid of old inventory, but it's still a good deal in the end. Most gaming PCs in this price range only have 8GB RAM, but this build has 16GB RAM. The RX 5600 XT is also comparable in performance to the GTX 1660 and 1660 Ti cards found in most other sub-$1,000 PCs. The main issue is the small system SSD, but this can easily be upgraded in the future.
