The Palicomp AMD Impulse - "It's hard to see where the corners have been cut on this machine".
We were given a open budget by the Magazine, PC Pro, we decided that for the average all-rounder PC you would be expected to pay upto £600.00, so we decided to bring the price down to £500 and choose the latest AMD Ryzen technology and opted for the Ryzen 5 which has now been upgraded which will turbo up to 4.2Ghz. As we wanted this to be a versatile option, Quiet, neat looking, punching power and capable of Gaming we decided to provide this with the KOLINK stronghold. The main competitor to this processor is the Intel i5 range, due to AMD getting the technology out in the open, the Ryzen's are becoming more dominant now for a great all rounder. The NVIDIA GT1030 2GB Graphics it can take on gaming or just about anything else you throw at it at reasonable settings. The 8GB of 4 RAM is generally the average amount of RAM included in majority of modern day PC's so this is more than adequate, but you can easily future-proof with the option of 16GB or more. The Intel 512GB M.2 skips SATA speeds by upto 3 times and is the game changer at this price point.. Supplied with Windows 10/11 or 10/11 Pro 64Bit fully installed as standard ready to go out of the box and the disc is provided for future re-installations.
Ideal for: Mid Gaming / Home Entertainment/ Office use
