Newegg has reduced the price of the ABS Stratos II Ruby prebuilt gaming PC to $2,549.99. This represents a $450 drop from the original list price. The system is configured with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card, and 32GB of DDR5 memory.
ABS operates as a private brand for Newegg, which is why the hardware appears extensively on the retailer's platform. Tom's Hardware reports that this specific model is currently the least expensive RTX 5070 Ti system available on the site. The outlet anticipates that stock for the discounted units will deplete rapidly.
The central processing unit is an eight-core chip utilizing AMD's 3D V-Cache technology. This architecture provides 96MB of L3 cache, a feature that reduces the need for the processor to access slower system memory. Such a design lowers latency and stabilizes frame rates. While the chip no longer holds the top spot in Tom's Hardware benchmarks, it remains a close contender. No Intel processor currently matches the gaming performance of an X3D series part.
The graphics processing unit is an Nvidia Blackwell card featuring 8,960 CUDA cores and 16GB of GDDR7 video memory. It targets high-end 1440p and 4K gaming and supports DLSS with multi-frame generation. Tom's Hardware notes that the card can manage 4K titles with ray tracing, though users may need to adjust settings in the most demanding applications. The 16GB of memory offers more capacity than the 8GB found in lower-tier RTX 5060 and 5050 cards.
The system includes two 16GB G.Skill Ripjaws M5 Neo RGB memory modules running at 6,000 MT/s. Storage consists of a 2TB Team Group NV5000 M.2 SSD with Gen 4 speeds, a capacity that accommodates multiple large game installations. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and Ethernet. A Bitspower 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler manages heat for the processor.
In its assessment dated October 23, 2026, Tom's Hardware described the pricing as strong for the current market. The review cited both the $450 discount and the specific combination of the 9800X3D and RTX 5070 Ti as key factors in the system's value.
