Ready-to-Game Desktop

The ZOTAC MEK5050A5500BR1 arrives with Windows 11 Home pre-installed so you can start playing immediately. An AMD Ryzen 5 5500 six-core processor and a ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 5050 8GB graphics card handle mainstream titles at 1080p. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 3200 memory and a 1TB NVME M.2 SSD provide responsive multitasking and fast load times. A 650W 80+ Gold power supply delivers stable power for the included components.

Suits Mainstream Gamers, Not Heavy Creators

This system suits gamers who want a balanced 1080p experience with AI Ready features such as DLSS. The B550 chipset and AM4 socket allow future processor upgrades within the same platform. Builders who need more storage than 1TB, more than 16GB of memory, or a higher-tier GPU for 1440p and 4K gaming should look at a different configuration. The air-cooling design also limits overclocking headroom for enthusiasts seeking maximum frequencies.

1TB NVME and 16GB DDR4 Headroom

The 1TB NVME SSD comfortably holds the operating system, drivers and a library of several large games before space becomes tight. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 3200 covers current mainstream gaming and general productivity with headroom for background apps. Memory can be expanded to 128 GB using the available slots if workloads demand it. The 650W 80+ Gold unit has enough reserve for the stock GPU and CPU but leaves little margin for a significantly more power-hungry graphics upgrade.
