Skytech Shadow (R7 7700 / RTX 4060 / 16GB RAM / 1TB SSD)

The Skytech Shadow uses an ATX form factor chassis with dimensions of 513 mm in height, 216 mm in width, and a thickness of 462 mm, giving it a total volume of roughly 51,193 cm³. Storage is handled by a 1TB NVMe SSD, offering fast read and write speeds typical of solid-state drives using the NVMe interface; the system does not rely on flash storage as a separate storage medium.

The RTX 4060 graphics card features 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM across a 128-bit memory bus, with a memory speed of 2125 MHz, an effective memory speed of 17000 MHz, and a maximum bandwidth of 272 GB/s. The GPU runs at a base clock of 1830 MHz and boosts up to 2460 MHz, delivering 15.11 TFLOPS of floating-point performance alongside a texture rate of 236.2 GTexels/s and a pixel rate of 78.72 GPixel/s. Built on a 5 nm process with 18,900 million transistors, it includes 3072 shading units, 96 texture mapping units, and 32 render output units, and connects via PCIe 4. The card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate, ray tracing, DLSS, stereoscopic 3D, multi-display output across up to four screens, double precision floating point, OpenGL 4.6, and OpenCL 3, while it does not include LHR or RGB lighting.

The processor runs 8 cores at a base speed of 3.8 GHz per core, with a turbo clock reaching 5.3 GHz, and supports 16 threads through multithreading. It carries a clock multiplier of 38 and includes an unlocked multiplier, allowing for frequency adjustments. Cache memory is organized across three levels — 512 KB of L1, 8 MB of L2 (1 MB per core), and 32 MB of L3 cache (4 MB per core) — providing a solid memory hierarchy for handling varied workloads. The CPU also features integrated graphics, supports 64-bit processing, and has a maximum operating temperature of 95 °C.

In CPU benchmarks, the system scores 2887 (single-core) and 14920 (multi-core) in Geekbench 6, while Cinebench R20 results come in at 744 for single-core and 7739 for multi-core. On the PassMark side, the overall score sits at 34473, with a single-core result of 4063 and an overclocked result of 34532. Graphics performance is measured at 19578 in the PassMark G3D test, reflecting the capability of the discrete GPU under that benchmark workload.

The system is equipped with 16GB of DDR5 RAM running at a speed of 5200 MHz, covering the memory requirements of a modern desktop gaming configuration. DDR5 operates at higher frequencies and offers improved bandwidth characteristics over its predecessor, and the 5200 MHz clock rate represents the speed at which this particular kit is rated to run.

The system supports Wi-Fi and includes Bluetooth 5.2 for wireless connectivity, alongside a single RJ45 port for wired networking. USB ports consist of 2 USB 2.0 ports, 2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and 1 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port; there are no USB 3.2 Gen 2, USB 4, or Thunderbolt ports of any kind. Display outputs include 3 DisplayPort connections and 1 HDMI 2.1 port, with no DVI or VGA connectors present. Audio connectivity is covered by a 3.5 mm headset jack and an S/PDIF out port, while there is no external memory card slot on this system.

The desktop CPU uses an AM5 socket and is compatible with X670, B650, X870, B840, and B850 chipsets, with a thermal design power of 115W. The system supports Intel Resizable BAR and ECC memory, with a dual-channel memory configuration, a maximum supported RAM speed of 5200 MHz, and a maximum memory capacity of 128GB. The GPU is based on the Ada Lovelace architecture with 2 execution units, and the system includes an HDMI output but no mini DisplayPort outputs and no USB-C ports. Supported CPU instruction sets include SSE 4.1, SSE 4.2, AVX, AES, FMA3, F16C, and MMX, and the NX bit is present for hardware-level memory protection. Air-water cooling is not included, XeSS (XMX) is not supported, and the system comes with a 1-year warranty.
