If you’re a gamer, then Quoted Tech’s Frontier is one of the best prizes you can win from the blog’s contests. With a design inspired by Banff National Park, the Frontier is a pre-built gaming computer that reflects all the power and beauty of the Rocky Mountains and glacial lakes in its performance. Each of the PC’s high-end components were carefully put together to provide a smooth gaming experience, and you can have the chance to have it all to yourself by entering below!

Building a custom gaming PC

When the pandemic-that-shall-not-be-named took over the world, I got into watching gaming content creators stream themselves playing games. These creators make a living through live streaming and rely on powerful computers that can simultaneously handle both demanding games and streaming their gameplay in real time. Because it is a profession, they often have to upgrade their PCs as graphics cards, processors, and gaming technologies constantly evolve and make the “new” become outdated in a just a few years. Some streamers choose to switch out old parts from an existing PC build, while others choose to build an entirely new custom gaming computer.

Key gaming PC components

For the uninitiated like me, DIY-ing your own custom gaming PC like the Frontier can seem quite intimidating. First, you have to gather the key components that make up a computer:

Pre-built PC vs. DIY PC

When choosing PC components, you have to ensure that the motherboard is the right size for the case, that the CPU and RAM are compatible, that the cooling system you choose will actually be enough, that your components will give you the performance you desire, etc., etc., etc. Then, you have to fit and screw in all the components into your case correctly, while ensuring you don’t damage any of the delicate bits of the machinery. Its a lot. It’s not impossible to do on your own even as a beginner, but it does require research, effort, and external guidance.

So when it comes to the debate between going with pre-built versus build-it-yourself PCs, Quoted Tech’s custom PCs, like the Frontier, are in my opinion, the better choice. The assembling and testing are done for you, but you get to choose between type of processor, processing power, and amount of RAM and storage. So it’s still a custom-built PC but somebody else does all the hard work and you can rest easy knowing that all the components are high-quality and will work smoothly together. Even most of the game streamers I watch outsource their custom-PC building!

What makes the Frontier PC a win win?

If you win the Frontier in this contest, you will receive the high-end, custom-built gaming computer that Marcus tested out in his review. Head over to his article to get a full list of the exact specs of the PC. All I will say here is that they are impressive and the performance was “nothing short of amazing,” according to Marcus. That’s the first win. As for the second, the components that make up this PC aren’t going to become outdated in a hurry. But, there’s is no doubt that they will eventually. (That’s not the win.) When that time comes, don’t put it in storage and leave it for your descendants to discover as an ancient artifact. Instead, you can switch out the parts you need to. Purchase and fit in the newer, faster processor or install that higher RAM upgrade or better GPU. That’s the win.

But it does lead me to wonder, like the Ship of Theseus thought experiment, if the Frontier that exists after the replacements will be the same Frontier as the Frontier that existed before the replacements?

Who can say.

Only this contest’s winner.

    The monitor is 240 hertz and this pc will pc able most games on 240fps. The other thing is that this has a 0.03 response time? This would be crazy for playing games like valorant. It also has gsync so the 4070ti can be used with it. I would the pc on the of my desk and the monitor in the middle. Maybe get some led lights for behind the monitor.

  13. Two impressive aspects of the Quoted Tech’s Frontier gaming computer highlighted in the article are:

    The Frontier is praised for its high-end components carefully assembled to deliver a smooth gaming experience.

    One standout feature is the Frontier’s upgradability. The article explains that, despite the ever-evolving nature of gaming technologies, the components of the Frontier won’t become outdated quickly.

    Frontier stands out not only for its initial high performance but also for its potential to stay current and competitive through user-friendly upgrades, making it a win-win for gamers who value both immediate excellence and long-term adaptability

  14. I’d pair it with the Samsung Odyssey G4 27″ FreeSync Gaming Monitor (LS27BG402ENXGO. It would be set up in my daughter’s room since she’s the gamer of the house, and likely surrounded by a whole lot of KPop-related merch and decorations.

    I would setup in my basement so that my sister could game with me when she visits! Would be decorated with all my funko pops and plush collection and a comfy sofa (can’t forget the mini fridge)!

    I love that quoted tech is meticulous with their cable management in their builds making it look super clean. The CPU water-cooler not only looks sleek, but is amazing at keeping the CPU at a good temp under heavy load.

    In my basement so my grand kids come over and play in there and have nice lights there too

  20. I would pair it with the Samsung Odyssey Arc (Model Number LS55CG970NNXGO) and put the setup in my den. Probably complete the setup with some lights on the backwall.

  26. i would pair it with the LG UltraGear 27″ 1440p QHD 165Hz 1ms GTG IPS LCD FreeSync Gaming Monitor and put it in my den. I would do the room in a travel theme of the places of my bucket list.

  27. The ASUS ROG Swift 26.5″ QHD 240Hz 0.03ms GTG OLED G-Sync Gaming Monitor (PG27AQDM) would go nicely with the Frontier in my second bedroom, which acts as an office. I’m not too huge into RGB, but some nice ambient LEDs in either a warm or cool tone would accompany this PC. Maybe even add a corner floor plant to add some greenery to the space. Can’t forget the pull out couch in case you need to catch some sleep from too many all nighters from gaming!

  29. The Frontier PC looks great with glass panels and rgb lights and is quite a powerful machine (excellent processor, etc.)

  30. I would love to pair an Samsung Odyssey G9 49″ QHD 240Hz 0.03ms GTG Curved OLED LCD G-Sync FreeSync Gaming Monitor(LS49CG932SNXZA) with this computer. It’s big so I would need a big table!

  31. I’d pair the LG UltraGear 31.5″ 1440p WQHD 165Hz 1ms GTG IPS LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor (32GP83B-B) – Only at Best Buy, in my only room (aside from the bathroom), and I’d decorate with shades/curtains on my lights to take care of glare.

  35. I would pair it with the Samsung Odyssey G5 32″ QHD 165Hz 1ms GTG IPS LCD G-Sync FreeSync Gaming Monitor – Model # LS32AG500PNXZA.
    I would put the PC and monitor in my den and I would repaint the walls to a neutral gray to complement them. I would also add a shelving unit and ambient lighting.

  37. From Marcus’ review of the Frontier the two features I think are the most impressive are the 13th gen core i9 coupled with a 4070ti which makes this a great gaming rig.

  38. MSI Optix 27″ FHD 165Hz 1ms GTG 1000R Curved VA LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor –Model Number: Optix G271CP–I’d have to have a great keyboard and a honking computer chair and booming speakers.

  39. I’d pair this PC with this monitor, because the refresh rate and response time is second to none.
    LG UltraGear 45″ QHD 240Hz 0.03ms GTG Curved OLED G-Sync Gaming Monitor (45GR95QE-B) – Black. It would go in my office, and I’d leave the space exactly as it is, I love it already.

  40. I think I would go with the MSI 31.5″ 4K Ultra HD 144Hz 1ms GTG Curved VA LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor (G321CU) – Black. Curved and 4K would be fantastic. I would set it up in my bedroom and it would be a 3 monitor setup, RGB Keyboard, Mouse and Mouse Pad as decorations 8D.

  42. I would get the Samsung Odyssey G5 32″ QHD 165Hz monitor (Model Number: LS32AG500PNXZA) since it seems like a very stable mid range monitor to use. I would hook it up with the pc in my room since I already have a desk and I would probably get some RGB light strips and place them around my ceiling for the nice ambiance of gaming or just watching movies. Also, I’d get some new peripherals since right now I am using a very old laptop that’s way outdated, might even consider a RGB mousepad.

  46. I would said this up in the basement where my teen son and I like to game! Model Number: ED273 S3BIIP Very cool 27 inch curved gaming monitor!

  47. I’d get an LG curved monitor. Specifically this LG 40″ Ultrawide 4K Ultra HD 72Hz 5ms GTG Curved IPS LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor (40WP95C-W). I have my little area of the basement with my PC and music gear setup. This new gaming PC would definitely replace my old PC!

  48. In my husband man cave.
    I would get the best

    LG 40″ Ultrawide 4K Ultra HD 72Hz 5ms GTG Curved IPS LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor (40WP95C-W) – White

  50. I’d get the LG 40″ Ultrawide 4K Ultra HD 72Hz 5ms GTG Curved IPS LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor (40WP95C-W) – White Model Number: 40WP95C-W

    I would set this up in my current office. My dream is to build a custom desk with bookshelves on either side. Adding mood lighting, a small couch and lots of plants to spruce it up!
