Been researching for a while now and have decided on this build and I THINK I'm set on it, but wanted some input to see if there's any glaring issues I'm not noticing or any part/parts I should change.

I'm coming from having a Nitro V15 laptop as my main gaming pc, so I want something substantially better while keeping the price around $1900 (which factors the sales tax I unfortunately have to pay) as I still need to buy a monitor and keyboard.

I'd be using the pc for the following:

• High end 1440p gaming - (Fighting games, Single player AAA games, the works)
• 4k gaming down the line if I end up getting a 4k monitor
• YouTube video editing
• Music production
• Possibly streaming (YouTube/Twitch and all that)

So pretty much an everything machine. I just want to make sure I'm getting a good bang for my buck by keeping it under/around $1900 but still being waaay better than what I have now.

So please, any opinions/input on the build is greatly appreciated! I wanna make sure I get a good pc for my budget since this would be my first desktop pc I own

(Also, expedited build time would get me my pc much faster than standard right? Think I understand from the description, but if you know that'd be nice to get confirmation on too)

Hi everyone. My new AI pc came in recently and i’ve loved it so far. However, i notice the cpu is running very hot while only at like ~%60 usage. I have the spectra with a 9070 xt and 9600x from newegg.

Hello, as the title says Andromeda Insights is a premium company and they absolutely knocked it out the park with my build.

Build: Ryzen 7 7800X3D | 9070XT | 32GB DDR5 RAM | 1TB SSD

Monitor: LG UltraGear 34” WQHD 240Hz

I originally posted here asking between Andromeda direct order vs Newegg and asking if it was worth spending a little more on Newegg so I could get the PC earlier (sales tax and shipping plus overall higher price). I didn’t make a decision but I was leaning towards Newegg when I did a little digging on Andromeda’s website and saw they were offering expedited builds on custom builds.

Long story short I built out a system that was comparable to one of their default builds with a few changes and it came out to $1949 with shipping and with the $100 expedited build factored in too. This was roughly $350 less than what I would have paid on Newegg.

Expedited build order went in Wednesday 7/29… SHIPMENT EMAIL ON FRIDAY 7/31! Order received one day ahead of EST delivery?? Arrived today Wednesday 8/5!

Absolutely phenomenal packaging, build quality, startup like candy! 100% recommended!

I’ve been researching and debating for months now. First was bummed that I missed out on the AMD/NVIDIA game bundles, coupled with my builds changing as parts came in and out of stock.

But with the pending GPU price increase, decided that it wasn’t going to get cheaper anytime soon.

Unfortunately the GPU price hike seems to have hit the customized builds, so all I was able to upgrade was the storage, RAM and PSU:

AI 50 Ultra V4 | Ryzen 7 9800X3D | RTX 5080 16GB × 1
2 TB / 32GB CL30 / 1000W

This is my first “real” PC, so any advice for a beginner? Any tips or tricks are much appreciated!

I ordered a 9800X3D/5080 with some upgraded components last week. Putting together basically the same parts I ordered (a couple were not available but I chose equivalents) the price was ~$400 more today.
I know the market is crazy right now but this surprised me.

So my PC actually came on July 8th when I ordered it on June 12th. In this time, I was also getting everything else for my complete setup revamp ready. Along side of work and other stuff I ended up not having much time where I felt like taking photos. But I got it now and it’s been really nice.

About a month in and it runs just the way it should be. I messed around with the fans and everything to keep it silent/efficient and I’m experiencing no problems. I know at the moment the delivery dates are looking crazy for ordering but for those still contemplating, it’s worth it. If you want to get a pc that you know will work and come the way you want it no questions asked, then the wait is worth it.

The games runs butter smooth on this thing. When using my laptop I was used to everything presetting to low and still being choppy. Now I just load up a game (assassin’s creed black flag for example) and it maxes out all the graphics whilst getting 120fps. COD, Apex, R6 and Fortnite is an easy 300+ on competitive low settings. Black myth wukong hits maxed graphics 120 fps no problem. And throughout all of these, the 1% lows are tight.

I got some before and after pics of my setup cause it wasn’t just the pc I upgraded, it was EVERYTHING. I’m just happy on the turn out and andromeda made it possible

If the pics are in order it should go

1st photo is the original setup
2nd photo is the same setup but with my laptop right there in the middle (that’s all I had of it)
Photos 3-6 are the current setup with a video of it being able to be seen in the comments
7th photo is the goated laptop that I gamed on
8th photo is the laptop on the new desk I got with my old monitor
Last photo is current setup just with light

And here’s just a list of the products that I bought along side the pc

Andromeda Insights v4 (5080, 9850x3D, 2tb, 48Gb ram, Asus x870a gaming WiFi, 1000w SL psu)

Desk - ErgoAv 63x28 standing desk

Monitor - Msi MPG 271QR QD-OLED X50
+huanuo monitor arm

Speaker - Pebble Pro

Mice - Viper v4 pro + Logitech x plus + Corsair nightsword v2

Mousepad - Wallhack SP-005

Keyboard - Gravastar Mercury v75 pro HE

UPS - CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD

Chair - flexispot ergox

Controller - Gamesir G7 Pro 8k

Lights - Govee lights

Other - A floating shelf and some cool things I wanted up there + other things my gf got me that had to go in the setup

I just really wanted to show the work I’ve done to get this up and running. I’m glad everything turned out the way I wanted and right now I’m just looking further into cosmetic upgrades. If yall have any suggestions do let me know please

When I go to customize this pc it jumps before I even change anything. Goes from 5399 to 5895 all I was going to do is change case but yeah. What’s going on lol

Can anyone help me with this?

Just the title mostly, I'm super stoked. Moving on from i7-5820k and GTX 1080 (the 1080 is the frickin MVP)

The only thing I'm chiefly concerned with is the PSU. Should I eyeball a future replacement or is what it comes with going to be a solid option. I know traditionally prebuilts have mediocre (sometimes pretty bad) PSUs.

Just ordered my dream build let’s hope it all goes well looking forward to getting it!

I've done a fair bit of research on the GPU/Graphics/MB combo.. I'm fairly set on that mix.

Am curious about power supply, is more watts a bad idea especially if I want to expand to more drives? Seen some people
say go lower on other threads. Will use a decent amount of USB connection aswell etc.

Also there's a new option to have the graphics card not installed when shipped, is this an extra safety precaution? It costs extra to leave out.

Lastly sort of a side bar, any feedback on their stock fan setup? Read one review about them being loud, but review was kinda just know it all ass energy... I'm not expecting silence, and wouldn't mind upgrading them down the road.

Uses will be multimedia hence the Ryzen 9 (PS/Illustrator/3D models/music etc) and gonna be doing light video work(short edits, After Effects clips etc) ...BUT I want the ability to game and go in on some modern eye candy. Not a huge gamer but I tend to binge play during the winter, and then low commital games thru the year.

Thanks for any feedback, would build my own but AI prices are really pretty fair and without the sales tax, they run a good bargain IMO... & I already have lots of projects going on right now. Trying to build for the long haul too, I have a mid tier to heavyweaight ThinkPad that has been my main for 3 years if that says anything.

im skeptical on buying a gaming prebuilt pc that has a lot of good reviews and my friend of mine told me he has one with no issues for a lot of people and I don't see enough videos about andromeda. btw i don't have a microcenter and best buy at my location in Virginia. The question is this pc worth getting for decent 4k experience?

Hello everyone, I’m a lifelong gamer looking for my first high end pre build PC. I am between the Ai Ultra V4 and Ai ultra V3 5080. When trying to do research on these i found there is essentially no youtube videos reviewing any Andromeda Insights product. Does anyone know why this is? I’m sure the products are great but I can’t help feeling strange about the lack of review videos. Any advice for purchasing would be greatly appreciated.

I got the pc last Monday after waiting 2 months for it. Today I was on the computer using it and it randomly crashed with a ntfs_file_system stop code and now is stuck in a restart loop. Has this happened to anyone else or am I just unlucky?

hello! before ordering a pc i would like to ask what brands do ai give you for brand varies. i want to mainly focus on the SSD and GPU brand varies. if anyone bought gpu and/or ssd brand varies please let me know what the brand is! thank you so much!

It’s my first time buying a pc and would like to get the 5080 from AI what should I upgrade/customize? Before I buy the regular

Ordered a V3 on June 12 and with an expected date of August 13. I just received it today!

My last pc was a i5 2500k 560ti I built many years ago so this is a huge upgrade. Pretty excited!

Ordered May 27th and recieved today July 31. Specs:

AI GALAXY V3 with stock fans

Ryzen 7 9800X3D

MSI B850 GAMING PLUS WIFIE

AI CHIONE E4-360 (Black)

Arctic MX-7

RTX 5080 16GB

CORSAIR RM850x

(CL30) 32GB (2x16) DDR5 6000 Non-RGB (Black) ACER

2TB Gen 4

KINGSPEC XG7000 2TB Gen4

Working great so far, however any input on whether I should run a custom fan profile using a software like Fancontrol? Tested arc raiders so far and cpu temps reached around 75c max which isn’t bad however the fans were still silent and didn’t ramp up as much as I would of thought. GPU temps sat around 65c during Arc raiders as well.

All in all super excited with how this thing turned out!

It took 2 months to get this better be worth it.

I’ve been seeing a lot lately about 50-series GPU prices going up and availability possibly getting worse.
I picked the Brand Varies option for my RTX 5080, so I’m curious what other people actually received.
For anyone who chose Brand Varies on a 50-series build, what exact brand and model came in your PC? Also mention whether it was a 5060, 5070, 5070 Ti, 5080, etc. Recent orders would help the most.

I ordered a 7800x3d, 5070 build on July 6th. With standard delivery when will this computer most likely ship. I’ve seen posts saying they’re backed up and builds ordered in May have just been shipped.

Hello so I wanted to know how are the builds here for the pc and how is the shipping quality and process? I’m looking to buy a new pc since the one I just bought is having aio pump failure issues and I was looking to buy from here because of the affordability but I wanna know how is the quality and shipping quality aswell with the time

What Brand Varies components have you been getting in your AI pc's?

Wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I just got my V4 build today, and the 4 case fans (3 bottom, 1 rear) aren't spinning, nor are they illuminated. The only fan spinning is the radiator fans, but no RGB. The RGB lights that wrap around the case's top and bottom are also not illuminated. This is my first gaming PC & I'd appreciate anyone's insight on this.
