Intel Core i5 12400F Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti Gaming PC - G6 Infinity X6
Description
G6 Infinity X6: The i5 Sweet Spot at 1080p Ultra / 1440p
The G6 Infinity X6 pairs Intel’s 6-core Core i5 12400F (6 Performance cores, 4.40 GHz Turbo, 18MB Smart Cache) with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB for 1080p Ultra / 1440p gaming. The 12400F is the i5 most 1080p Ultra / 1440p gaming buyers should be looking at: a mature 6-core part on the settled LGA1700 platform, with the cache and frequency modern gaming engines reward, at the i5 price point structurally below the Storm i7 tier. Hand-built in Wolverhampton against the same workshop process Ginger6 has run since 2001, the G6 Infinity X6 ships fully tested with a 3-year warranty and lifetime UK phone support.
The Infinity range is built around one CPU: the i5 12400F. What changes from G6 Infinity X6 up or down the ladder is the GPU, the case, and the PSU sized to match. That is the range design: the i5 thread count and cache stay constant, the GPU you actually need decides the build. Step across to the G6 Infinity X5 with the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT for the top of the Infinity range, 1440p step-up's natural sibling, or to the G6 Storm X3 with the i7 12700F and the same RTX 5060 Ti for the alternative path at this price band. Not certain which Infinity is the right one for your monitor and the games you play? Call Kevin on 01902 714533. He builds the machine, answers the phone, and gives a straight answer based on your setup, not a sales tier.
Inside the GameMax F15M mid-tower, the 12400F runs under the Intel stock cooler, sized for the 65W base power and the sustained gaming load this build is sold for (a 1-4 core gaming workload sits comfortably below the cooler's sustained-load ceiling). ARGB case fans on the GameMax F15M handle case airflow. The Gigabyte H610M K V2 carries the LGA1700 socket with the H610M chipset, two DDR5 DIMM slots populated with 16GB DDR5 5200MHz (2x8GB) Dual Channel memory in dual-channel mode, an M.2 NVMe slot for the included 1TB Gen 4 SSD, 1GbE Realtek LAN, and Wi-Fi connectivity supplied by an included 300Mbps USB Wi-Fi adapter. Power comes from the 650w G6 80+ Bronze PSU, sized with sustained-load headroom above the 12400F plus RTX 5060 Ti combination. The G6 Infinity X6 sits inside our £1200 gaming PC tier and the wider Intel gaming PC range, specifically the Intel Core i5 gaming PC range. Browse the full Ginger6 gaming PC catalogue, the RTX 5060 Ti gaming PC range, or the 1440p gaming PC range for context.
The G6 Infinity X6 is suited to competitive shooters like Valorant, to open world and RPG games like Baldur's Gate 3, and to GTA 5 like simulation titles at 1080p Ultra / 1440p, plus the wider Ginger6 catalogue for any title not named here.
What’s Inside the G6 Infinity X6
Every component selected for 1080p Ultra / 1440p gaming on the i5 12400F platform. Dual-channel DDR5 in the canonical 2x8GB kit, NVMe Gen 4 storage, ARGB case fans on the GameMax F15M, and the PSU sized with the headroom the RTX 5060 Ti actually needs under load.
The i5 + RTX 5060 Ti 1080p Ultra / 1440p Sweet Spot
Three reasons the G6 Infinity X6 is the build that lands on this spec.
Top of the Infinity Range, On the i5
The X6 is the strongest GPU pairing in the Infinity range. The same i5 12400F sweet spot as the rest of the range, with the Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti 8GB landing the build at 1080p Ultra ray-traced and 1440p high-refresh single-title gaming. If you want more thread count for streaming and creator work alongside gaming, the Storm range (i7 12700F) is the upgrade path; for the X6's target buyer, the i5 sweet spot is enough.
RTX 5060 Ti 8GB GDDR7: 1440p Step-Up Sized
The RTX 5060 Ti carries 8GB of GDDR7 on a 128-bit bus with fourth-generation ray-tracing cores. The Ti tier lifts the raster envelope above the RTX 5060, and DLSS 4 quality plus DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation handle the ray-traced AAA rotation comfortably. At 1440p high-refresh, modern AAA holds above 60 fps in most titles; competitive titles run well into the high hundreds.
GameMax F15M + 650w PSU: Sized For the Tier
The GameMax F15M chassis sits at the top of the Infinity range with ARGB case fans and the front-IO layout the 1440p step-up buyer expects. The 650w G6 80+ Bronze PSU is sized with sustained-load headroom above the i5 12400F plus RTX 5060 Ti combination. Cable management routes the GPU power cable behind the shroud, away from the front intake.
What the G6 Infinity X6 Plays
Four workloads the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB on the i5 12400F is sized for at 1080p Ultra / 1440p.
Cyberpunk 2077, Hogwarts Legacy, Black Myth Wukong, the modern AAA rotation sits at 1440p high to Ultra on the RTX 5060 Ti with DLSS 4 quality engaged. DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation handles the demanding scenes comfortably. 1% lows stay clean.
CS2, Valorant, Apex Legends, Fortnite, Rocket League run well above 240 fps at 1080p competitive settings, or above 144 fps at 1440p, on the RTX 5060 Ti. The i5 12400F's six cores carry the network thread and voice stack without breaking sweat.
Cyberpunk 2077 with path tracing on (frame-generation engaged), Alan Wake 2, the RT-heavy rotation hold 1440p with DLSS 4 quality plus Multi Frame Generation. Native path tracing without upscaling is the workload for the Storm i7 + RTX 5070 tier above; at 1440p with DLSS 4, the X6 sits comfortably in its target window.
Assetto Corsa Competizione, iRacing, MSFS, the simulation and sim-racing rotation runs at 1440p high settings on the RTX 5060 Ti. Triple-monitor sim-racing setups with the cockpit view at 1440p hold above 60 fps; the i5's six cores feed the physics tick cleanly.
Where the G6 Infinity X6 Sits in the i5 Stack
The Infinity X6 is the top of the Infinity range, the 1440p step-up build on the i5 12400F sweet spot. The RTX 5060 Ti 8GB on GDDR7 lifts the raster envelope above the X3's RTX 5060 and lands the build comfortably at 1080p Ultra ray-traced or 1440p high-refresh single-title gaming. DLSS 4 quality and DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation handle the ray-traced AAA rotation; competitive titles run well into the high hundreds at 1440p.
The X6 is the natural buy for a 1440p single-title gaming buyer who does not need the extra cores of the i7 Storm range for streaming or creator work alongside gaming. If your workload includes OBS encoding plus chat plus browser plus a heavier launcher running with the game, the Storm X3 with the i7 12700F and the same RTX 5060 Ti is the upgrade path. For the gaming-first buyer, the i5 sweet spot is enough, and the X6 lands the build at a price the i7 step up cannot match.
Every Infinity X6 is hand-built in Wolverhampton with the workshop's full 24-hour stress test, 3-year parts-and-labour warranty, free mainland UK delivery, and lifetime UK phone support. The GameMax F15M chassis is sized for the RTX 5060 Ti's length with ARGB case fans on intake and exhaust; cable management routes the GPU power cable behind the shroud away from the front intake.
Tell Kevin:
- The games you play most often
- Your monitor resolution and refresh rate
- Whether you stream, record, or edit alongside gaming
- Your approximate budget
No charge for the conversation. No pressure to buy.
Who the G6 Infinity X6 Is For
Four buyer profiles where the G6 Infinity X6 is the right answer. If your situation matches one of these, the build fits.
You play one game at a time at 1440p, you want comfortable frame rates with ray tracing on in the titles that have it, and you do not stream or record alongside. The i5 12400F + RTX 5060 Ti sits cleanly in this target window without paying for the i7 thread count you do not use.
You play modern AAA at 1080p Ultra and you want the RT-on margin the X3's RTX 5060 cannot quite hold across the demanding scenes. The 5060 Ti's raster lift moves the demanding RT scenes from playable to comfortable. DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation handles the worst cases.
The X6 (RTX 5060 Ti) and the X5 (RX 9060 XT) sit at the top of the Infinity range on opposite sides of the GPU aisle. The X6 is the Nvidia choice: DLSS 4 quality plus Multi Frame Generation, CUDA workload path, the GDDR7 memory generation. The X5 is the AMD choice: RDNA 4 raster envelope, FSR 4, Adrenalin driver suite. Pick the upscaling path and driver suite you want to use.
You are looking at the X6 but wondering whether to step across to the Storm X3 with the i7 12700F and the same RTX 5060 Ti. The honest answer: if you stream, record, or run heavy creator work alongside gaming, the i7's 12 cores earn the price gap. If you play one game at a time, the i5 sweet spot is enough and the X6 keeps the GPU money in the build.

Very helpful during the whole process from ordering to set up. Excellent after sales service. Product A1.
Excellent service. I chose a standard PC online, then used drop downs to customise it. As per website, it took three working days to build and I was kept apprised via email. Delivery was on time and the product well packaged. The price of my custom built PC was far less than the equivalent off the shelf PC from larger companies. Customer service is first rate.
Great help prior to ordering. PC arrived on time in full working order. Excellent service, great price.
Built by Hand in Wolverhampton
Every G6 Infinity X6 goes through the same three-stage workshop process. The 24-hour stress test is the gate that holds dispatch.
Before assembly begins, the configuration is reviewed against the games you play, the monitor you own, and any creative work or streaming you run alongside gaming. If you have spoken to Kevin, the build sheet reflects that conversation. Components are verified against current stock, the Intel stock cooler mounting hardware is confirmed for the LGA1700 socket on the GameMax F15M, and the build is queued in the workshop schedule. No shortcuts on stock substitution: the part on the order is the part in the build.
The G6 Infinity X6 is hand-assembled inside the GameMax F15M chassis. The i5 12400F is mounted with the Intel stock cooler verified for cold-plate contact; ARGB case fans on intake and exhaust handle the airflow path across the cooler stack. The RTX 5060 Ti is seated with the anti-sag bracket and the GPU power cable routed behind the cable shroud, away from the front intake. The 650w G6 80+ Bronze PSU is wired with sustained-load headroom above the i5 plus 5060 Ti combination. BIOS, DDR5 5200MHz dual-channel mode, NVMe boot order, the latest Blackwell driver, the on-board firmware update, and the included 300Mbps USB Wi-Fi adapter driver are all verified before the 24-hour test.
Every G6 Infinity X6 runs sustained 24-hour load before despatch. The test loop covers Blackwell driver behaviour on the RTX 5060 Ti GDDR7 memory stack, DLSS 4 quality and Multi Frame Generation engagement under sustained boost, memory stability under DDR5 5200MHz dual-channel timing, NVMe sustained throughput, and frame-pacing in modern AAA at 1440p high with DLSS 4 quality engaged. The 650w PSU is verified under the combined sustained-load draw; the GameMax F15M chassis airflow is verified under load. Ships free to mainland UK addresses, insured and tracked.

Questions About the G6 Infinity X6
The G6 Infinity X6 sits at £1,169.99 as configured: i5 12400F, RTX 5060 Ti 8GB GDDR7, 16GB DDR5 5200MHz (2x8GB) Dual Channel, 1TB Gen 4 NVMe SSD, Windows 11 Home, 3-year warranty, free UK mainland delivery. The X6 is the top of the Infinity range, the 1440p step-up on the i5 sweet spot. Hand-built in Wolverhampton, stress-tested for 24 hours, lifetime UK phone support.
Yes. The RTX 5060 Ti 8GB on the i5 12400F holds modern AAA at 1440p high settings comfortably above 60 fps in most titles, with DLSS 4 quality and DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation lifting the demanding scenes higher. For 1080p Ultra ray-traced, the GPU sits with margin. For competitive titles at 1440p, frame rates run well above 144 fps.
Both carry the RTX 5060 Ti 8GB. The Infinity X6 carries the Intel i5 12400F (6 cores) at £1,169.99; the Storm X3 carries the Intel i7 12700F (12 cores) at £1,329. The price gap is the i7 thread count. For gaming alone, the i5 is the sweet spot and the X6 keeps the price down. For gaming plus streaming, plus a heavier launcher, plus background recording, the i7's 12 cores earn the price gap. Pick by workload.
Yes. The RTX 5060 Ti's fourth-generation ray-tracing cores plus DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation make the modern ray-traced AAA rotation comfortable at 1080p Ultra and 1440p high-refresh. Native path tracing without upscaling is the workload for the RTX 5070 tier above (Storm range); at 1440p with DLSS 4 quality and Multi Frame Generation engaged, the X6 sits well within its target window.
The X6 (RTX 5060 Ti) and the X5 (RX 9060 XT) sit at the top of the Infinity range on opposite sides of the GPU aisle. Pick the X6 if you want the Nvidia path: DLSS 4 quality and Multi Frame Generation, GDDR7 memory, the CUDA workload path. Pick the X5 if you want the AMD path: RDNA 4 raster envelope, FSR 4 AI-accelerated upscaling, Adrenalin driver suite. At the same target window (1080p Ultra / 1440p high-refresh), both land the build cleanly; the choice is the upscaling and driver path.
Two upgrade paths. Add a USB Wi-Fi adapter that includes Bluetooth at checkout, or step the motherboard up in the configurator to a B760M-class board with onboard Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3. Either path keeps the rest of the build identical.
Yes. The LGA1700 socket supports current-generation Intel chips; the H610M K V2 has two DDR5 DIMM slots, the M.2 slot for the boot drive, a SATA upgrade path. The 650w G6 80+ Bronze PSU has the headroom for a one-tier GPU upgrade in future; a 2TB Gen 4 NVMe drive is the obvious first upgrade as your library grows.

Great gaming pc Review by G
Quality Price Value Customer Service This gaming pc was great from the outset. You get a lovely gaming pc with hreat rgb fans. Build quality is fantastic, very neat and easy to set up. The really good part is how quiet the pc is, as has those large fans, keeping the noise to a minimum. So I give the gaming pc a big thumbs up :) (Posted on 05/03/2023)

Perfection Review by Lucille Rigden
Value Quality Price Customer Service This company is excellent from looking at the products and ordering through production and delivery there is no stone unturned to help the customer find the exact machine for them I Was phoned to check that I had the right set up for me. Together we worked through the spec and Changed some things to make the components fit the new casing. After care was also great. No query or question too small and an immediate response by mail and phone. The gaming machine they made for me is high quality and absolutely fits the bill. I would highly recommend Ginger6 and if ever I need a new PC I will definitely go to them. (Posted on 02/08/2021)

very efficient Review by Roger
Quality Price Value Customer Service I found Ginger6 on Google. After comparing 3 of 4 different builders price and delivery times, I decided to choose Ginger6 to build my desktop. Their reviews looked very good and even though I hadn't heard of them by word of mouth, I gave them my order. I received an acknowledgement email on my day of order, Sat 13th Aug, then nothing until Thurs 18th Aug when I received an email saying my new desktop would be delivered that morning. I chose the option of delaying delivery until the next day.
At first I could not get on line wirelessly and had to ring Ginger6. After speaking to Kevin for about one minute he found that I had not connected the aerials to the back of the desktop to get the Edimax wireless LAN working. You can imagine how I felt. More haste less speed as they say.
I found Ginger6 to be very efficient and helpful and am now enjoying a cracking desktop to my spec.
