The story behind the build
More About This PC
All business on the outside. Ready to play inside.
Onyx Halo proves that a custom PC can make an impression without a rainbow of lights. The dark Fractal Design airflow case gives it a clean, purposeful silhouette, with enough restraint to look equally at home in a dedicated gaming room or a polished office.
Inside, an Intel i5-12400F and RTX 5060 8 GB are supported by 32 GB of Corsair DDR4 and fast NVMe storage. It isn't trying to be a flashy flagship; it's a balanced example of a PC built to deliver enjoyable 1080p gaming and comfortable everyday multitasking.
If you like this understated style, Chris can make it yours: a quieter cooling plan, different storage capacity, stronger graphics for a higher-resolution display or just the cleanest possible desk setup. The best custom PC is the one built for how you want to use it.
Strong 1080p gaming and high-frame-rate esports, with some 1440p gaming using tuned settings and DLSS.
The RTX 5060 is well suited to modern 1080p gaming, particularly multiplayer titles, with some 1440p potential at balanced settings. The goal is a responsive experience rather than trying to force maximum effects into every title.
Everyday & creative
Comfortable for day-to-day use, multitasking, gameplay capture and lighter editing workflows.
A generous memory allocation also makes this a comfortable everyday creative machine for photos, graphics and modest edits. People working with intensive video or 3D scenes can ask Chris about a higher GPU tier.
8 GB video memory can constrain heavy texture packs, ray tracing and some high-resolution games. These are hardware-based expectations, not measured FPS benchmarks. Operating system, required software, drivers and games must be separately installed and configured.

Broad estimated average FPS ranges based on published GPU performance trends, not benchmarks of Chris's actual completed PC. Individual game results depend on the CPU, drivers, patches, scene complexity and server. Ray tracing and frame generation are OFF unless a mode says otherwise. Upscaling is only assumed when explicitly listed. Competitive settings prioritize speed instead of maximum detail. Independent GPU comparison · Popular game selection.
