What the deal covers
Walmart is listing a CyberPowerPC gaming desktop at $2,479.99, a reduction of $730, according to Tom's Hardware. The machine pairs an Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti graphics card with an Intel Core Ultra 9 285 processor, 32GB of DDR5 memory and a 2TB SSD.
Tom's Hardware notes the processor appears to be the Core Ultra 9 285 rather than the faster 285K variant. Even so, the publication describes the chip as well suited to multitasking and demanding applications.
Inside the machine
The RTX 5070 Ti is the centrepiece of the build. Tom's Hardware highlights its 16GB of video memory and 8,960 CUDA cores, and says the card is strong at 1080p and 1440p gaming, with support for Nvidia's DLSS upscaling technology extending its reach into 4K.
The Intel Core Ultra 9 285 has 24 cores, split between eight performance cores and 16 efficient cores, with 24 threads and maximum turbo clocks of 5.6 GHz. Tom's Hardware says it performs well in multi-threaded workloads, though it lacks the large cache of AMD's X3D processors.
Memory and storage are generous for a prebuilt system. The 32GB of DDR5 6400 RAM is described by Tom's Hardware as a component that would cost around $500 on its own in the current market. The 2TB drive is a PCIe gen 4 SSD, and the system also includes Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3.
An alternative build
For readers who prioritise gaming performance over general productivity, Tom's Hardware points to a second Walmart listing. That machine uses AMD's Ryzen 7 9800X3D, a processor widely regarded as gaming-focused, alongside an RTX 5070 with 12GB of video memory.
The alternative build comes with 32GB of DDR5 memory and a smaller 1TB gen 4 SSD. It trades some storage and graphics memory for the gaming-oriented CPU.
What buyers should consider
Deal listings can change quickly, and the price and availability of this desktop have not been independently verified. Readers interested in the offer should check the current Walmart listing before making a decision.
As with any prebuilt PC, it is worth confirming the exact component models, including the processor suffix and the brand of graphics card, since manufacturers sometimes vary parts between builds. Tom's Hardware's report is the sole source for the specifications and pricing described here.
