Ready-to-play liquid-cooled desktop

This ASUS ROG Strix Helios GX601 system arrives assembled, tested and running Windows 11 Home. It pairs a 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor at 5.7GHz with a GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card. The 360mm liquid cooler and 1000W power supply support sustained high loads. It targets gamers and creators who want immediate performance without building.

16GB GDDR7 VRAM on RTX 5080

The single specification that determines fit is the graphics card's 16GB GDDR7 video memory on the RTX 5080. This capacity drives 4K gaming, real-time ray-traced scenes and GPU-accelerated creative workloads. Buyers who need more VRAM for larger models or multi-GPU scaling should look elsewhere. The PCI Express x16 interface connects the card to the platform.

360mm liquid loop and 1000W sustain output

Under continuous load the 360mm liquid cooler moves heat away from the 24-core CPU while the 1000W unit delivers stable power to both processor and RTX 5080. Temperatures and clock speeds remain steadier than on air-cooled or lower-wattage builds during long sessions. The 128GB DDR5 memory and 2TB NVMe SSD keep data flowing without bottlenecking the compute pipeline.

Questions about this item

What does the 5.7GHz clock on the Core Ultra 9 285K actually deliver in a built system?

The processor hits 5.7GHz on its performance cores under load, giving snappy single-thread speed for game logic and quick application launches while the 24 cores share the work in heavy multitasking.

How does the PCI Express x16 slot limit the RTX 5080 in this chassis?

The card runs on a full x16 link so the GPU memory bandwidth and compute resources are not bottlenecked by the bus.

What clearance does the 360mm liquid cooler need inside the GX601 case?

The 360mm radiator mounts in the designated roof area of the Helios GX601, so the case already provides the required space and fan positions.
