Built for production workloads first, gaming as the second use. CPU core count and RAM capacity matter more here than peak game clocks; the rationale reflects that priority. Compatibility partial: 5 of 28 hardware checks ran (4 passed, 1 warned). 23 skipped pending precision spec data — verify physical fit and PSU headroom independently. Power headroom not computed for this build — verify the PSU rating against the GPU's rated TGP before purchase. The compat engine's psu_headroom check returns skipped when wattage data is missing on either part; operator review surfaces these in the admin audit page. Sourced across 1 retailer. Roughly $63 below the tier average. Post-promo number; we do not pad with list-vs-MSRP fiction. Lowest in-stock prices win; the same rule applies everywhere on SpecHawk, regardless of the workload framing or the tier price band.

Built for 1440p · 144Hz target · FPS estimator ships in v1.1.
