🎮 Why the Aurora Compact
Due to the popularity of our 2025 Snowman build, we created The Aurora Compact as its natural evolution.
The Aurora Compact improves on Snowman in every meaningful way. You now get a choice of colour, with all visible components matched to that look, and a choice of graphics card, allowing you to tailor performance to your games and budget.
Despite its compact footprint, this PC delivers excellent airflow thanks to additional bottom mounted fans, strong cooling from a 240mm liquid cooler with display, and a powerful upgrade path thanks to a 650W power supply that exceeds the system’s current requirements.
Whether you choose black or white, the Aurora Compact is a beautiful build. Graphics cards are supplied in manufacturer colours only, typically black, but the system looks fantastic in both colour options.
This is a superb 1080p gaming machine, with an optional ray tracing compatible GPU, and for NVIDIA options it also doubles as a great entry level streaming PC.
It comes ready with Wi Fi, Bluetooth, TPM, Secure Boot, and Windows 11 fully activated. Additional NVMe storage can be easily added in the future.
