VERDICT
Stuffed with high-end components, the potent AMD Galaxy is worth both the money and the noise
THE AMD RYZEN 7 1700 is a fantastic octa-core CPU, yet we haven’t seen any PCs that use it. Palicomp’s AMD Galaxy finally adds one to the list, overclocking (as is the norm for premium Palicomp systems) the Ryzen chip from 3.0GHz to 3.8GHz – an ambitious boost that has also has required a 240mm Auraflow all-in-one watercooler to be fitted.
There’s also an 8GB GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card, making the AMD Galaxy look a very attractive prospect: a combined 4K-ready gaming rig and straight-faced workstation, all for a relatively reasonable £1,300.
DOING DOING DONE
It got off to a great start in our 4K tests. The overclocked CPU does some heavy lifting and, with a generous 16GB of DDR4 RAM, it scored 149 in the image test, 273 in the video test and a spectacular 328 in the multitasking test, for 280 overall. You can get better single-core heft for about the same cash, but for multithreaded work, the AMD Galaxy is a powerhouse.
It also makes good on the promise of 4K gaming. In Dirt Showdown, on Ultra settings, it produced a velvety 153fps at 1,920x1,080, 138fps at 2,560x1,440 and 79fps at 3,840x2,160, so for older or less demanding titles, it’s more than enough for smooth play at any resolution.
