The Warp Nova R prebuilt gaming desktop from PCSpecialist is a system that has a focus on design and aesthetics. With an array of Corsair iCUE Link components sitting inside a Corsair 2500X micro ATX case, this PC is definitely trying to look the part. But with a £1999 price-tag, can it still deliver great performance while being so focused on the bling?
