“The system easily ran any game we threw at it at the maximum settings at 1440p and begged to go 4K and VR” – Alex Stevens

The AVADirect Avant Mini Cube is a very good, well configured system that leaves very little to be desired. Everything from the choice in case to the processor, graphics, and storage was well thought out and the results speak for themselves. In our testing, the system easily ran any game we threw at it at the maximum settings at 1440p and begged to go 4K and VR. AVADirect has done a helluva job with this build with color matching components and a top notch cable management job typically not available in most pre-built systems. In fact, the type of attention to detail put into this build is just about what I’d personally do in one of my own custom builds. If this sample is representative of typical AVADirect system builds, these guys definitely are on a different level.
