ROG Strix Helios GX601 Ultra 7 265KF Gaming Desktop

This ASUS ROG Strix Helios GX601 is a liquid cooled gaming desktop built around an Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF 20 core processor running at 5.4GHz and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 graphics card with 16GB GDDR7 memory. It includes 128GB DDR5 RAM, a 4TB NVMe SSD plus a 2TB SATA III HDD, and a 1000W power supply running Windows 11 Home. Buyers who need a compact form factor or a lower power envelope should consider other options.

360mm Liquid Cooler Sustained Thermal Performance

A 360mm liquid cooler manages heat from the 20 core CPU and RTX 5080 GPU during extended gaming or rendering sessions. The closed loop design maintains stable temperatures without the noise spikes common in air cooled builds under continuous load. Systems relying on smaller radiators or basic air cooling will throttle earlier under similar sustained workloads.

PCI Express x16 and NVMe Storage Interface Limits

The graphics card connects via a PCI Express x16 slot while the 4TB SSD uses an NVMe interface for high throughput. The 2TB hard drive connects through SATA III, which caps its maximum transfer rate below that of the NVMe drive. Builders requiring additional PCIe lanes for multiple add in cards or secondary NVMe drives must verify motherboard lane allocation before purchase.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the 360 mm liquid cooler keep the Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF at 5.4 GHz during all-day sessions?

The 360 mm liquid cooler is designed to handle the 20-core processor at its 5.4 GHz base frequency for sustained loads.

What display cable and monitor input do I need to use the GeForce RTX 5080 16 GB GDDR7?

The RTX 5080 uses a PCI Express x16 graphics interface; connect a DisplayPort or HDMI cable from the card to a compatible monitor input.

Will my existing SATA III 2 TB hard drive work alongside the 4 TB NVMe SSD in this chassis?

Yes, the system includes a 2 TB SATA III HDD and a 4 TB NVMe SSD, so additional SATA drives can be added if bays and ports are free.
