DinoPC Primal GT0 System Review (FX8320/RX480)

Rating: 7.5.

With the recent release of the new AMD RX 480 graphics card, system builders are keen to start shipping out PCs with the new GPU inside. We have already seen one such desktop with a RX 480 from PCSpecialist – review HERE – and today DinoPC have sent us their Primal GT0 rig for review. It boasts an FX-8320 CPU, Gigabyte 990X motherboard and 16GB RAM.

It has been a while since I have seen the FX-8320 CPU, so it will be interesting to see how it gets on with the latest games. Aesthetics are also emphasised within the DinoPC Primal GT0 – there are red, braided PSU extensions, an RGB LED strip and red LED fans in the roof of the case. All-in-all, it looks good so let's crack on with the review.

Tryx Luca L70 Case Review – needs a lot more work

The Tryx Luca L70 had some negative press at launch but is it really that bad?

  1. Why are there no FPS results shown for the other systems?

    I know FX-8320 is kinda dated cpu and architecture, but that idle load power is way off the normal scale, usually these cpu’s idle at less than 100W total system draw.

    Also the GTAV results seem weird as fuck, I’ve seen even FX-6300 get better FPS than that, let alone any of the 8 core FX cpus. So may that was a faulty unit?
