Alexandrite Shift - Tier Three
Alexandrite Shift: The Balanced Powerhouse
The Alexandrite Shift marks the third step in our performance lineup - a carefully tuned, upper-budget build that balances power, airflow, and long-term reliability. Designed for users who want serious capability without spending more than they need to, this system is built to thrive in modern games, creative workloads, and demanding multitasking environments.
Out of the box, the Alexandrite Shift crushes 1080p gaming and easily holds its own at 1440p, offering smooth performance across even the most intense titles. While 4K gaming isn’t the target here, the system can still handle lighter 4K loads depending on the configuration. It’s ideal for gamers, content creators, and power users who need a PC that can keep up with multiple tasks - whether that’s gaming, streaming, editing, or working with large files - all without slowing down.
Cooling is a top priority. This rig is equipped with a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE tower cooler upgraded with Arctic P12 Max high-speed fans, keeping the CPU from ever getting too hot to handle. The Lian Li Lancool 216 case brings plenty of airflow to the table, with seven total case fans moving air efficiently through the system. It’s not a quiet machine - because it’s not trying to be. The fans do their job, pushing serious air to keep both the CPU and GPU running cool, even under extended load.
The Alexandrite Shift is built for performance, not flash. It’s a sleek, powerful, and highly capable rig for users who want serious 1440p power, workstation versatility, and excellent thermals - all without leaving the “budget” price class behind.
