Small forms -factors are becoming more and more popular, but often the assembly process often happens that you do not need to do. It is here that the mini-PK Wired2fire Hal 9000 appears, which I tested. All this is suitable inside the cooler Master NR200P Max V2, an 18-liter case that occupies among our The best recommendations Mini Itx PC CASEField
Price? On the website Wired2fire, this computer will cost you 1924 poundsIncluding the cost of the Windows license. For context, if you are ready to make purchases and order from various British retailers, the version of this DIY PC will cost you 1674 pounds. This will work to a modest bonus of 250 pounds for a pre -created system with a two -week assembly time, a five -year assembly guarantee and a two -year guarantee. I especially like the fact that the use of ready -made details means that you will avoid many future problems with the update common to large sellers, such as HP or Lenovo, who use things, motherboards and power sources.
To be recommended, Wired2fire must be provided not just a good list of parts. We will also consider how well the system is packaged for delivery, is configured from the point of view of BIOS and software and its support and customer service supported by it. And, of course, we will check if we get the expected level of performance from the SFF PC with these specific parts. Click on quick links below or scroll our full conclusions!

Wired2fire Hal 9000 – Packaging and cable management
When it comes to packaging, we just need a box that prevents any reasonable damage during delivery, and Wired2fire reaches this standard.
The PC was double, with the packaging of the PC housing inside the larger cardboard box filled with pillow pillows. The main PC was wrapped in foam, with a bubble that protects the internal components. Sometimes this is preferable that the graphic processors are sent separately, but this requires a certain level of knowledge from the final user, so delivery with its established if this internal protection is present. Having pulled out the computer out of the package, I can’t find his guilt-entry Wired2fire here first-class.
Along with the Cooler Master Box box, you also get boxes for other components, including the Wi -Fi ASROCK B850I motherboard (update compared to the choice of MSI B650, indicated on the site), instructions on the instructions on the instructions, Home License Windows 11, Kettle Power Cabinet and Correction Kabel.
When removing packaging and side panels for a more attentive look, cable management is also excellent, with a good channel and consistent ties, using both built -in housing wraps and some convenient cable bonds. This, of course, is the best job than I could do a few days after attempts, so good traces there too.
Wired2fire Hal 9000 – Choice of details
On the front of the details of the parts installed on this PC, do not quite correspond to those that are listed on the web site WRED2Fire. Nevertheless, discrepancies, as a rule, are in the best possible way, with our unit with a newer B850 motherboard and the respected ASUS Tuf Gaming RTX 5070 Ti. With a more careful view of the insides of the PC, the Operational Memory-Data XPG Lancer Lancer Lancer Lancer Lancer Lancer Lancer DDR5-6000 with relatively free time CL48 CL30 sets, which we recommend, but not glaring.
AIO Cooler and PSU is a master culer that are delivered with the maximum NR200P case-it is not a version of V2, since there is no USB-C connector of the front panel, despite the Wired2fire website says. PSU Inside is a cooler master V850 80+ Gold SFX, which exceeds the minimum power for 5070 Ti, and also gives a good amount of landing and efficiency. In general, this is a reasonable choice, although the correct Max V2 case with the USB-C front panel and some more stringent time frames would not have passed the wrong way.
Wired2fire Hal 9000 – BIOS configuration
One of the things that Wired2fire mentions when you set up this PC is that by default they provide a package of “moderate optimization of the CPU”, which, according to them, “is suitable for games and use of workstations.” This is a free option, which is turned on by default, when you determine the system with more extreme acceleration available for 80 pounds.
In our case, this, according to the contrary, refers to the inclusion of the game mode in the BIOS Motherboard ASROCK, with the installation of “Optimization of the Games Zen 5”, installed by default Agesa and the “Circular Profile Productivity Development Region” is enabled. I did not see evidence of more significant changes, such as the inclusion of PBO, but the RAM was at least installed on its EXPO 6000MT/S 48-48-48-96 by 1.10 V. This is what we expect for the free “optimization” package.
Similarly, the PC was sent with the latest version of BIOS, 3.2, available during the order. Chipset drivers and graphics in Windows were also updated until the latest versions, which is always nice to see.
Wired2fire Hal 9000 – Guarantee and Customer Service
Another advantage of a pre-created game PC is a support network that you can contact if you have any problems, and not go through Reddit and other online forums. WireDfire support page provides phone number, email address and web forms.
For convenience, I used a web form to see if they can diagnose a couple of problems. Firstly, I stated that the RAM did not show how to accelerate in the BIOS, and if they could help me with the turned on the EXPO. They answered with a short and useful answer in just seven minutes.
To check them a little stronger, I returned back and noted that one of the wands with RAM was mysteriously removed during delivery, and that one of them was not recognized in BIOS. They returned with reference to YouTube video to help me return the theoretically detached RAM to the system several hours after my initial message.
The conditions for their guarantee are indicated on the web site. Table PCs are covered with a “standard guarantee and return of desktop PCs, which covers the cost of work costs for any repair work for five years, as well as the process of repair, replacement or return for faulty parts for two years. Spare parts will be considered with the same or with the same as “at least as good in terms of productivity as an erroneous part”, while for return, if up to six months it is a full cost, and after six months it is an “equivalent used value” of the element. Where the item is shown faulty, Wired2fire will cover the costs of collection and return. How typical, there are exceptions, such as random damage or damaged items on the way from inadequate packaging.
Wired2fire Hal 9000 – Game performance
Perhaps the most important part of this puzzle is how this mini -PC Wired2fire Hal 9000 works. We previously checked its main components, but not necessarily together, so it will be interesting to see how it works. 5070 Ti is a serious rival for our favorite graphic processor of the middle level, to which Rich equated in our review as “4080, or more with overclocking.”
As in the case of testing with Ryzen 5 5600 PC, I took a wide selection of games to better judge how this small form -factor works as part of 1080p, 1440p and 4K resolutions. The tests were carried out in the highest settings for native resolutions in most cases for comparison purposes, so you can often achieve higher performance by dropping settings and/or including scaling using DLSS, FSR or XESS. All games were tested on Philips Evnia 32M2N8900, 4K 240 Hz of the QD -L panel.
To provide an additional context, we also have the results of a return from 5600 and 7800x3D systems with RX 7800 XT, since the games were launched in the same settings.
You can see an array of graphs and data higher and lower, and, in short, I was completely impressed by the overall system performance. We have especially impressive results in such as Indiana Jones and Black myth Vukong This is almost twice as much as in 5600 PCs, and RT performance is seriously strong. There are also healthy fields in F1 24 And Forza Horizon 5I felt it with a field Stalker 2 And the vested black myth of Vukong can be considered small disappointments, with results that were not as high as expected.
As a rule, I think that this WRED2Fire system is very well suited for games 1440P and 4K AAA thanks to this combination of 5070 Ti, as Rich also noted in Our review 5070 TiThe Ryzen 7 9700X field also provides sufficient power for these games, at the same time more efficiently than its predecessor, and provides solid growth both in the game and in the performance of the content of content – as will be highlighted in Our review 9700xField
To support this, I placed 9700x through a couple of synthetic criteria in the industry, with geekbench 6 runs, Cinebench R20, R23 and 2024. These results are against 5600 and 7800x3D in a convenient table below.
| Reference | AMD Ryzen 5 5600 | AMD Ryzen 7 7800x3d | AMD Ryzen 7 9700x |
|---|---|---|---|
| Geekbench 6 (single) | 2111 | 2691 | 3214 |
| Geekbench 6 (multi) | 9489 | 14911 | 14435 |
| Cinebench R20 | 4375 | 6878 | 6320 |
| Cinebench R23 (lonely) | 1445 | 1763 | 2135 |
| Cinebench R23 (multi) | 11224 | 17541 | 16073 |
| Cinebench 2024 (lonely) | 89 | 110 | 128 |
| Cinebench 2024 (Multi) | 647 | 1058 | 832 |
It seems that 9700X is also adequately cooled by a built-in 280-mm AIO, since I noticed a peak average temperature of 75.6 ° C when the Cinebench 2024 is launched. Similarly, during the 4K Furmarm mileage, 5070 Ti reached 66 ° C with fans of 65 percent.
Wired2fire Hal 9000 – Conclusion
Mini PC Wired2fire Hal 9000 probably takes cookies as one of the most reasonable and solid pre -built PCs, which I watched after a while. He has a set of components, which, for the most part, have a great sense and provide fantastic games and content for loading.
It is also well packed with excellent protection. The system itself is logically built and well controlled by the cable, while its BIOS is largely standard. It is also relevant and comes with a clean installation of Windows, which you do yourself, complete with the product key, so there is no inflating program or something.
Customer service is also good, with quick and simple answers to a couple of questions that I had, while warranty terms provide great calm, if anything goes wrong.
I think that I gladly spent my trust in the smaller builder, such as Wired2fire, in this case, given their excellent attentiveness and attention to the details with the system provided. The margin of the total value of the unit is also not unreasonable, and it seems that they will not go on a trip. Good job, guys.
