PCSpecialist Helio Ultra review at KitGuru.
Rating: 8.0.

The Helio Ultra prebuilt gaming desktop from PCSpecialist is the first we've seen from the company to feature one of AMD's latest generation processors. This machine is packing a Ryzen 7 9700X alongside a Gigabyte RTX 4070 Super Aero OC graphics card and 32GB of Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 memory running at 6400MT/s. While many gamers out there are eagerly awaiting news on the upcoming X3D 9000 series Ryzen CPUs, not everyone can wait. For those wanting to pick up a system right now, is the Helio Ultra a decent option?
