Newegg Pricing: ABS Stratos II Ruby Rig Hits $2,549.99

Newegg lists the ABS Stratos II Ruby gaming PC for $2,549.99, marking a $450 drop from its standard list price.

The system combines an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card. It includes 32GB of DDR5 memory. Tom's Hardware identifies this specific build as the lowest-priced RTX 5070 Ti system currently on the retailer's site. The outlet predicts the inventory will sell out rapidly.

The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is an eight-core chip that utilizes AMD's 3D V-Cache technology. This design increases the L3 cache to 96MB. According to Tom's Hardware, the larger cache reduces the need to access slower system memory, which lowers latency and stabilizes frame rates. The outlet notes that while the chip is no longer the top performer in their CPU benchmarks, it remains very close. They state that no Intel processor matches an X3D part for gaming performance.

The RTX 5070 Ti is an Nvidia Blackwell card equipped with 8,960 CUDA cores and 16GB of GDDR7 video memory. It targets mid- to high-tier performance for 1440p and 4K gaming. The card supports DLSS with multi-frame generation. Tom's Hardware reports that the hardware can handle 4K titles with ray tracing, though users may need to adjust settings in the most demanding games. The 16GB of video memory provides more capacity than the 8GB found on the RTX 5060 and RTX 5050.

The remaining specifications include two 16GB G.Skill Ripjaws M5 Neo RGB modules running at 6,000 MT/s. Storage consists of a 2TB Team Group NV5000 M.2 SSD with Gen 4 speeds. The system features Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and Ethernet connectivity. A Bitspower 240mm all-in-one liquid cooler manages the processor's heat.

In a report dated October 23, 2026, Tom's Hardware described the price as strong for the current market. They cited the $450 discount and the specific combination of the 9800X3D and RTX 5070 Ti as the primary drivers of the deal.
