PCWorld’s video team loves to jaw on about PC gaming on The Full Nerd podcast, or spend a few hours assembling a new rig on a live desktop build. But what if they tried something truly original? Revolutionary, even? Like playing video games, streamed live, on the internet? Insanity!
In this sponsored video, Adam and Will chill out and play some of their favorite titles on a desktop PC with a fresh graphics card from Asus, the Prime RX 9060 XT. If you’re wondering, this mid-range setup also uses an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X CPU, an Asus Tuf Gaming B850-Plus motherboard, 32GB of Crucial DDR5-6000 RAM, an Asus A31 mid-tower case, and an Asus Prime AP-850G modular power supply. There’s an Asus Prime LC 240 all-in-one cooler keeping things frosty, too.
Adam and Will are playing Deadzone Rogue and Stellar Blade, checking out AMD’s FSR capabilities with an eye on GPU temps while pushing polygons. For more fun stuff, subscribe to PCWorld on YouTube.
