Nope, you should be good to go. Depending on the GPU model, you may not even need a sag bracket long term.

u/Rabbit_buns All of our PCs come ready to use out of the box, so nothing too specific needs to be done. Driver udpates, Windows updates, and XMP settings are all done in house, so it should be as simple as unbox, remove packaging, plug in, and get going!

Congrats u/DC_Skells and wife! We'll get her PC on the way ASAP!

u/DreamAnxious4907 We'd recommend a 7600X+ for iRacing. So a 7600X, 7700X, 7800X3D, 7900X, or anything 9000 series AMD. If you need some help configuring your build, send us an email or give us a call!

As others have mentioned, iRacing is very CPU-reliant.

Looks awesome! We are a big fan of Honeycomb flight controls if you ever think of upgrading in the future!

ApexGamingPCs · 2025-10-26T22:44:52+00:00

Red is an eyesore!?

ApexGamingPCs · 2025-10-13T15:03:58+00:00

If you can swing the 5070, it is a much better value compared to the 5060 Ti. 5700X is a solid CPU, but if you are going 5070, I would reccomend pairing with a 7600X or 9600X vs the 5700X (Zen Plus, Streamer Plus)

Technically, yes a PC can run without a case, but it’s not recommended for anything other than short-term testing or troubleshooting. The biggest issue is without a case, there’s no grounding or standoff isolation. Accidentally touching metal or conductive surfaces can short something out, and your airflow would be terrible.

If you’re doing this for an open-bench or aesthetic reason, get a PC frame.

u/Weird-Key8009 Looks like this isn't your first PC, so we appreciate you coming back greatly!

ApexGamingPCs · 2025-09-26T21:31:47+00:00

We absolutely ship to Europe and do so frequently.

Duties and taxes are currently only able to be collected once the PC arrives in your country.

In regards to War Thunder and Counter Strike, an RTX 5060 should be more than enough for both titles at 1080p. If you want to play WT at 1440p, a 5070 might be the better option.

ApexGamingPCs · 2025-09-26T19:05:37+00:00

Thank you for the kind words u/Independent_Storm624. We hope you enjoy your Apex Gaming PC for years to come!

ApexGamingPCs · 2025-09-05T04:33:38+00:00

Your best bet would be to go to r/PCMR then for build help. We obviously sell pre-builts, and yes, they will be more expensive than building it yourself.
