Newegg has lowered the cost of the ABS Stratos II Ruby pre-built gaming computer to $2,549.99. This price represents a $450 reduction from the original list price. The system is currently the most affordable RTX 5070 Ti machine on the retailer's site, a position Tom's Hardware noted in its report dated October 23, 2026.
The ABS brand is exclusive to Newegg, which accounts for the high volume of these systems in the retailer's inventory. The specific configuration pairs an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card. The build also includes 32GB of DDR5 memory.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is an eight-core chip that utilizes AMD's 3D V-Cache technology to increase L3 cache capacity to 96MB. This design reduces the need for the processor to access slower system memory, thereby lowering latency and stabilizing frame rates. While no longer the absolute top performer in CPU benchmarks, the chip remains very close to the leader. Tom's Hardware noted that no Intel processor currently matches the gaming performance of the X3D line.
The RTX 5070 Ti is a current-generation Nvidia Blackwell card equipped with 8,960 CUDA cores and 16GB of GDDR7 video memory. It supports DLSS with multi-frame generation and is designed for 1440p and 4K gaming. The additional video memory provides more capacity than the 8GB found on the RTX 5060 and RTX 5050 cards.
Tom's Hardware stated that the card can handle 4K gaming with ray tracing in current titles, though players may need to adjust settings in the most demanding games at that resolution. The system's remaining specifications include two 16GB G.Skill Ripjaws M5 Neo RGB memory modules running at 6,000 MT/s. Storage is provided by a 2TB Team Group NV5000 M.2 SSD with Gen 4 speeds, offering ample space for large game installations.
Connectivity features on the Stratos II Ruby include Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and Ethernet. The processor is cooled by a Bitspower 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler. Tom's Hardware described the current pricing as strong for the market, citing the discount and the specific combination of high-performance components.
The outlet expects the offer to sell out quickly given the competitive pricing and component selection.
