Ryzen 5 5500 RTX 3070 8GB, black or white edition 2 x 8GB DDR4 3200MHz, colour matched (Refurbished, 12 month warranty) 1TB Gen3 NVMe SSD Jungle Leopard 360mm AIO with 4 inch custom screen Black or White Build
About This Build
The Rascal was built for anyone who wants a standout gaming PC without spending Tom money. Full ARGB ecosystem, custom sleeved cables running through the case, and a statement piece 360mm AIO cooler in a Jungle Leopard finish, with a built in 4 inch custom screen that can show your own images and video. The matching Jungle Leopard fans complete the look. It is available in black or white.
The main difference under the hood compared with The Tom is memory. The Tom runs 32GB of memory across 4 sticks, while The Rascal uses 16GB across 2 sticks, with both colour matched to your build, alongside a slightly lower CPU and an older generation graphics card. For day to day gaming The Rascal holds its own, though The Tom has more headroom for heavy multitasking or streaming.
Every component is genuine and tested before it goes in. Where we have used a refurbished part (the memory and the graphics card) that is disclosed openly below, and each one is fully checked and covered the same as new.

Questions People Ask
🤔 How does this compare to The Tom?
The Tom steps up to a Ryzen 5 5600 and an RTX 5060, and runs 32GB of memory rather than The Rascal's 16GB. If budget allows, The Tom gives you a bit more headroom, but The Rascal gets you a very similar gaming experience for less, with its own Jungle Leopard look.

The Rascal comes with a Jungle Leopard 360mm AIO cooler and matching Jungle Leopard ARGB fans. The 4 inch custom screen on the cooler can show your own images and video.
🎨 Does The Rascal come in other colours?
The Rascal is available in black or white. Choose your colour with the Color option. The case, graphics card, memory and power supply match your chosen colour, and the motherboard is always black. The cooler and fans are Jungle Leopard on both colours.
♻️ Is the refurbished memory and graphics card safe to use?
Yes. Both parts are fully tested before going into your build and are covered the same as any new component. Using select refurbished parts is how we keep The Rascal at this price without cutting corners on the parts that matter for performance.
