Meet the <strong>8Pack Asteroid<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/desktop-image-221222-8Pack-Asteroid-1024x342.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid\" class=\"wp-image-22864\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With its mirror-finish, carbon fibre accents, and beautiful RGB lighting, the 8Pack Asteroid looks like it has come from space. Harnessing the power of 13<sup>th<\/sup> Gen Intel and NVIDIA\u2019s Ada Lovelace architecture, it may well be from the future. Get ready for out-of-this-world performance in all your gaming, content creation, and streaming endeavours!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Damn dat Ass-teroid | 8Pack Asteroid MK2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bnmx1pTbACM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Astronomical Hardware<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can\u2019t look at an 8Pack gaming PC without first drooling over the high-end tech. Every component has been cherry-picked to work cohesively together and facilitate the very best in performance, whether gaming, creating, or streaming.&nbsp; Providing the foundation is an <strong>ASUS Z790-I Gaming Motherboard<\/strong>, equipped with Wi-Fi, PCIe 5.0 support, and DDR5. Unlike in traditional gaming PCs, this motherboard has been installed to the right of the case. Thus, better suiting the layout of the custom-made Mini-ITX case.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 8Pack Asteroid harnesses the power of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/your-guide-to-intel-13th-gen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">13<sup>th<\/sup> Gen Intel Core processors<\/a>, with improved hybrid architecture. This gaming PC utilises the flagship <strong>Intel Core i9-13900KS CPU<\/strong>, armed with twenty-four cores and thirty-two threads. The cores are a balance of eight P-core and sixteen E-cores, working intelligently with Windows 11 and Thread Director to best manage your workloads. As an 8Pack PC, these already lightning-fast cores have been overclocked by, the one and only, Ian \u201c8Pack\u201d Parry. The P-cores are tuned to 5.5GHz and the E-cores to 4.3GHz. Prepare to warp to light speed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To get the very best out of your gaming, the 8Pack Asteroid is equipped with an <strong>NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 GPU<\/strong>. Sporting the very latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/your-guide-to-the-nvidia-rtx-40-series\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ada Lovelace architecture<\/a>, this titan-class graphics card has advanced AI capabilities, as well as third-gen RT cores and fourth-gen Tensor cores. As a result, you can game, create, and stream with stunning, photorealistic graphics.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-930feb06 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-interior-3-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22631\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-lifestyle-3-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22632\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High-Speed Performance&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paired with this elite-tier tech, is ultra-fast <a href=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/ddr4-vs-ddr5-six-differences-you-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DDR5 memory<\/a>. As standard, the 8Pack Asteroid utilises 32GB of dual-channel DDR5 RAM tuned at 5600MHz. DDR5 has increased bandwidth, better power consumption, and improved architecture for more efficient performance. As such, the 8Pack Asteroid is able to seamlessly multi-task and has incredibly tight timings.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also enhancing the speed of the 8Pack Asteroid is its integrated storage solution. This elite-tier PC is equipped with two lightning-fast SSDs for its primary and secondary storage drives. First is the <strong>WD Black SN850 1TB NVMe SSD<\/strong>, boasting read and write speeds of 7000MB\/s and 5300MB\/s, respectively. This drive is excellent for holding your precious gaming library and frequently used applications. The second is the <strong>Samsung 870 QVO 4TB 2.5\u201d SSD. <\/strong>With such a large capacity, this drive is ideal for holding all your files, media, creative projects, and more!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Providing power to the 8Pack Asteroid is the <strong>ASUS Loki SFX-L 1000W PSU<\/strong>. This power supply has an 80 PLUS Platinum certification, meaning it delivers power at 92% efficiency at half load. Power loss and heat transfer are minimised, thus being kinder to your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/how-to-build-an-energy-efficient-gaming-pc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">energy bills<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-930feb06 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-interior-1-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22633\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-interior-10-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22634\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cooler than a Comet Tail&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A key feature of 8Pack gaming PCs are their thermal solutions \u2013 highly efficient systems that double up as a work of art. The 8Pack Asteroid is no exception. This water-cooling loop features hardware from <strong>EK Water Blocks<\/strong> and the<strong> Corsair Hydro X Series<\/strong>, as well as <strong>bespoke distro plates<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A firm favourite of 8Pack\u2019s, this water-cooling loop is powered by a <strong>D5 pump<\/strong> and custom reservoir, providing reliable and consistent flow. The coolant is an opaque white, perfectly complementing the aluminium mirror finish and sci-fi aesthetics. This is fed throughout the water-cooling loop via hard tubing, dedicated water blocks for the CPU and GPU, in addition to custom-made distro plates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The distro plates are truly something else. Catching the eye with its stunning aesthetics, there is a <strong>bespoke aluminium distro plate <\/strong>with acrylic inserts that serves as the bottom of the main chamber. The inserts emulate tube routing, continuing the pipe effect along the plate. Once again, this features 8Pack branding and highly efficient cooling power.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enhancing the water-cooling efficiency even further, the 8Pack Asteroid has <strong>phenomenal airflow<\/strong> thanks to the inclusion of high-performance <strong>Noctua fans<\/strong>. Additionally, there are <strong>hexagonal cut-outs<\/strong> to draw in and ventilate air across the chassis. Most notably, the front panel features them arranged in an \u201c8\u201d because there is no such thing as too much 8Pack branding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-930feb06 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-interior-5-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22635\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-interior-12-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22636\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spaceship Aesthetic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No 8Pack PC is complete without stunning aesthetics. The Asteroid earns its place among its peers thanks to the <strong>mirror finish aluminium<\/strong> chassis, with <strong>carbon fibre plating<\/strong> accenting the interior. This gaming PC would look right at home on the S.S. Enterprise, TARDIS, or Death Star!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, the 8Pack Asteroid is also highlighted by <strong>vibrant RGB lighting<\/strong>. As standard, the accessories are set to white to best fit the sci-fi style, but they can be configured to suit via compatible software. However you illuminate this PC, the EL wire 8 lighting will look like a work of art.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The finishing touch to this extreme, overclocked gaming PC is the <strong>Pexon braided cables<\/strong>. Blending seamlessly into this glossy aesthetic, they are a mix of greys, white, and black.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-930feb06 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-lifestyle-1-1-1024x768.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22642\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Custom Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As with every 8Pack machine, the Asteroid comes with a selection of configuration options. They are as follows:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>RAM:<\/strong> The memory can be upgraded from 32GB of DDR5 RAM to 64GB. Both kits are Corsair Dominator Platinum models, with a cheeky increase in capacity available.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Storage:<\/strong> There is a selection of storage devices to pick and choose from, enabling you to equip the 8Pack Asteroid with the lightning-fast solution and terabytes you need.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cables:<\/strong> If the grey-scale rainbow isn\u2019t to your liking, the Pexon cables can be swapped out for any of the available colours in their MDPC range.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Case:<\/strong> Just like the 8Pack Meteoroid, the Asteroid utilises a custom-made Mini-ITX designed by our in-house team. As such, it is available in a few different options. These include: carbon fibre, acrylic panelling as per the Meteoroid, bead-blasted aluminium for a more subtle finish, or fully aluminium featuring panels coloured with Cerakote.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If there are any changes you\u2019d like to make to the 8Pack Asteroid \u2013 either specification or cosmetics \u2013 then get in touch with our <strong>Prestige Systems Advisor<\/strong>, on 01782 940 193. They\u2019ll be able to help you make all the changes you want to implement to make the Asteroid unique to your needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As standard, the lead time for complex gaming PCs such as the Asteroid is <strong>36 working days<\/strong> \u2013 potentially longer during busy periods. Any changes you make may affect performance, price, and lead time.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-930feb06 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-interior-6-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22640\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.overclockers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/221124-aseteroid-interior-2-1024x1024.jpg.webp\" alt=\"8Pack Asteroid Overclocked Gaming PC\" class=\"wp-image-22641\"\/ loading=\"lazy\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get Out-of-this-World Performance Now<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Does the 8Pack Asteroid have you seeing stars?
