Core Gaming Foundation

This barebones kit delivers a complete Windows 11 Pro desktop built around an Intel Core i5-10500 processor with integrated Intel HD Graphics 630. It includes 16GB of DDR4 memory, a 512GB NVMe solid-state drive, and a 650W EVGA power supply housed in a COUGAR Purity case with RGB lighting. The system targets builders who want a ready-to-run platform for adding their own discrete graphics card.

Suits GPU Upgraders, Not Turn-Key Buyers

The kit suits enthusiasts migrating an existing graphics card or purchasing one separately, because no discrete GPU is included and the integrated graphics alone cannot drive modern titles at playable settings. Buyers who need a complete gaming experience immediately, or who require multiple drive bays beyond the single NVMe slot, should look at fully assembled alternatives.

Check Case Length And Power Connectors

Verify that your chosen graphics card fits the COUGAR Purity chassis length allowance and that the 650W EVGA unit provides the required PCIe power connectors for that card. Ensure the Gigabyte B560M DS3H motherboard (or supplied equivalent) supports the GPU's physical slot width and that your monitor connects to the card, not the motherboard video outputs.

Questions about this item

Which graphics card do I need to add because the system only includes Intel HD Graphics 630?

The kit uses a BYOC design, so you must install a discrete GPU to get video output; the integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 is not wired to the rear I/O on this build.

Will my existing PCIe graphics card fit the Gigabyte B560M DS3H motherboard and the 650 W EVGA power supply?

The motherboard provides a full-length PCIe x16 slot and the 650 W unit includes the necessary 8-pin or 6+2-pin connectors for most mid-range cards.

How can I confirm the i5-10500, 16 GB DDR4 and 512 GB NVMe are all detected after assembly?

Enter the BIOS on first boot; the main screen lists the CPU model, total memory and the NVMe drive by capacity.
