The 1K Genesis

We are actively battling the rise of gaming PC prices by sourcing high value elite components and committing to one fixed build each run. That lets us keep the offer focused and fair.

We build 15 systems at a time. Once they are gone they are gone and we move to the next build. The next run can be better or different based on market pricing at that moment.

No. We only offer one gaming PC configuration per run. This keeps procurement efficient, quality consistent, and turnaround fast.

When all 15 units in a batch are sold the product is marked sold out on this page. Our team then sources the next set of best value components and starts a new batch, which may include updated parts depending on real time market pricing.

No. Because component prices move quickly, each new batch is built around whichever parts give the strongest performance per pound at that time, so specifications can change between batches.

A large part of the recent rise in gaming PC prices comes from AI data centre demand competing for the same memory chip factories used for consumer RAM and storage. Read our full breakdown in the blog article on rising RAM and PC prices.

Yes. Every 1K PC is stress tested and optimised for a full 24 hours before it is packed for delivery, checking CPU and GPU temperatures under load, memory stability, and storage performance. Read more in our 24 hour stress test article.

DDR5 runs at higher base speeds and improves bandwidth compared to DDR4, which can help with frame rates in memory sensitive games and faster load times. DDR4 remains a solid budget option on older platforms. Our full DDR4 vs DDR5 comparison goes through this in more depth.

DDR5 pairs well with current generation AMD and Intel platforms and helps this build perform strongly in modern titles without needing unnecessary upgrade options.

Yes. The current batch specification is chosen to comfortably run modern AAA titles at high settings at 1440p, with strong performance in competitive esports titles as well.

Yes. The CPU, RAM, and storage in the current batch are suited to light to medium streaming and content creation alongside gaming, not just gaming alone.

Each system ships ready to use with a genuine Windows 11 Pro licence and the latest driver set for the installed hardware, including the productivity features Windows 11 Home does not offer. Read more about why we include Windows 11 Pro as standard.
