Titan 5 and Nova 5 prices checked October 9, 2026; other listed prices checked September 27, 2026. All prices are before tax and shipping. Upgrades change the final price; a product with a qualifying starting configuration may also have options over $2,000.
Which upgrades fit below $2,000?
- Titan 5 tower: all currently listed RAM/storage combinations are $1,499.99–$1,709.99. The 32GB / 2TB option is $1,709.99.
- Titan 5 Bundle: current combinations are $1,599.99–$1,809.99; 32GB / 2TB is $1,809.99 with the monitor and controls.
- Titan 7 tower: 16GB / 1TB is $1,899.99 and 16GB / 2TB is $1,999.99. The 32GB options start at $2,009.99, above this ceiling.
- Nova 5 tower and bundle: all four tower configurations are below $2,000 at $1,499.99–$1,824.99. All four bundle configurations are $1,599.99–$1,924.99, including the 24-inch 1080p 100Hz monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
If $2,000 is your total checkout limit, leave room for tax, shipping, and any display or audio equipment. Titan 7 Bundle starts at $1,999.99 before those costs, leaving effectively no room within a $2,000 all-in budget.
Titan 5 versus Nova 5: the 8GB detail matters
Both use an RTX 5060 Ti with 8GB of dedicated video memory. Their 16GB or 32GB system-RAM options do not turn that graphics card into the 16GB version. Both use Ryzen 7 5700, DDR4 memory, and a 120mm tower cooler; Nova 5 uses the ATHENA M4M case. Choose according to the whole workload rather than assuming a higher price means proportionally higher game FPS.
Our RTX 5060 Ti 8GB benchmark guide links original testing from TechSpot and PC Gamer and identifies the tested CPU, settings, and FPS. Those external systems differ from these PCs; the results are not Gigatech performance guarantees.
How to make the final choice
- Name the most demanding games and whether you want 1080p or 1440p.
- Decide whether your budget includes the monitor. Every Gigatech bundle includes a 24-inch 1080p 100Hz display.
- Choose the graphics tier, then size system RAM and storage for your workload.
- Check the exact selected configuration, availability, and checkout total.
