ArsenalPC ASUS ROG GR701 Ultra 7 265KF RTX 5080 128GB DDR5 4TB NVMe 2TB HDD 1000W Liquid Cooled Gaming PC

System overview

The ArsenalPC ASUS ROG GR701 is a liquid-cooled gaming desktop built around an Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card. It targets enthusiasts who want a pre-assembled Windows 11 machine for high-refresh 1440p or 4K play without selecting parts themselves.

Platform limits

The CPU uses the LGA 1851 socket and the GPU connects via a PCI Express x16 slot, so future upgrades must match those interfaces. Memory runs as DDR5 across four slots, all currently populated with 128GB total. The 4TB NVMe drive and 2TB SATA III hard drive occupy the primary storage lanes, leaving no obvious spare NVMe or SATA connections for extra drives without removing existing ones.

Upgrade context

This system replaces an older desktop that lacks a 20-core processor, 16GB GDDR7 graphics memory, or a 1000W power supply backed by a 360mm liquid cooler. The jump is worthwhile when your current rig cannot sustain 5.4GHz boost clocks under load, runs out of VRAM in modern titles, or has no headroom for a 5080-class card. It is not suited for buyers who need more than four memory slots, additional NVMe bays, or a chassis designed for custom loop expansion.
