Snapshot

The 30-Second Version

The CLX SET packs a 20-core i7 14700KF and RTX 5070 into a flashy mid-tower, and it scores 80.1 overall in our database. Gaming performance is excellent, but reliability is a serious weak spot. At USD 2,257 from Best Buy it's a good deal, but don't overpay.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • 20-core i7 14700KF is a beast for gaming and productivity 92nd
  • RTX 5070 with 12GB GDDR7 handles 1440p and 4K gaming well 90th
  • 32GB of fast DDR5 RAM and a roomy 2TB NVMe SSD 89th
  • Liquid cooling and RGB fans keep it cool and looking sharp 84th

Cons

  • Reliability score is a real concern at the 11th percentile
  • Wi-Fi 5 feels dated for a 2025 gaming desktop
  • Heavy and bulky at 13.61kg
  • Price swings wildly between USD 2,257 and USD 2,950

The proof

Performance

The i7 14700KF is a 20-core monster that boosts to 5.6GHz, and it lands in the 91st percentile for CPUs in our database. That's top-tier stuff. The RTX 5070 with 12GB of GDDR7 sits at the 85th percentile, which is strong but not the absolute best. You'll crush 1440p gaming and handle 4K in most titles, especially with DLSS 4 doing the heavy lifting. The 32GB of 5600MHz DDR5 and 2TB NVMe SSD both rank in the mid-to-high 80s percentile-wise, so load times and multitasking are snappy. The weak spot is compactness, scoring a 25.4 out of 100. This is not a small PC, and at 13.61kg, you won't be moving it around much.

vs Competition

Against the HP OMEN GT22-3080 and Lenovo Legion Tower 5a Gen 10, the CLX SET holds its own on raw specs. The i7 14700KF outmuscles most CPUs in this price bracket, and the RTX 5070 is a step up from last-gen cards. The ASUS ROG GM700 is a closer fight, with similar gaming chops but typically better build quality and reliability. The Apple Mac Studio M3 Ultra is a different animal entirely, aimed at creators who don't care about gaming. The Dell Area-51 is flashy but often overpriced for what you get. If reliability matters to you, the Lenovo and ASUS options are safer bets.

Price

Value & Pricing

The price spread here is wild. You'll find this exact config listed anywhere from USD 2,257 to USD 2,950 across four US listings. At the low end, it's a solid deal for the specs. At the high end, you're paying a premium for the CLX name and the Obelisk chassis. Best Buy has the lowest everyday price in our data, so start there if you're shopping. Just don't pay anywhere near USD 2,950 for this thing.

Overview

The CLX SET TGMSETRTU5201BM is a mid-tower gaming rig that pairs a 20-core Intel Core i7 14700KF with an RTX 5070 and 32GB of DDR5. On paper, that's a serious 1440p and 4K gaming combo. The 2TB NVMe SSD means you won't be uninstalling games every other week either.

CLX built this thing in the USA and stuffed it into the Obelisk chassis with a 240mm liquid cooler and RGB fans. It looks the part. But the reliability score in our database is rough, and that's worth talking about before you drop over two grand.

Common Questions

Q: Does this desktop come with a monitor?

No, you'll need to bring your own display. The RTX 5070 can drive up to four monitors at 4K 165Hz, so you've got options.

Q: How fast is the processor?

The Intel Core i7 14700KF boosts up to 5.6GHz, which puts it in the 91st percentile for CPUs in our database. It's unlocked too, so you can push it further if you know what you're doing.

Q: Can this run games at 4K?

Yes, the RTX 5070 with 12GB of GDDR7 handles 4K gaming in most titles, especially with DLSS 4 enabled. For high refresh rate 4K, you may need to dial back some settings.

Who Should Skip This

Skip this if you need a compact PC or care about long-term reliability. The 25.4 compact score means it's a chunky tower, and the 11th percentile reliability rating is a red flag. If you want something that just works for years without tinkering, look at the Lenovo Legion Tower 5a or ASUS ROG GM700 instead.

Verdict

Buy this if you want a high-end gaming PC with a top-tier CPU and a current-gen GPU, and you're okay with a little risk on the reliability front. It's a great 1440p and 4K gaming machine for the money, especially if you snag it near the USD 2,257 mark. Just know that CLX isn't a household name like Lenovo or ASUS, and our data suggests that shows up in long-term dependability.
