Description
GAMING STARTS HERE - With the brand new CODEX R2 AI B2NVL5-466US Gaming Desktop, a sleek & compact gaming desktop featuring the latest hardware and technology, it delivers extraordinary gaming performance to wield your gaming power. Everyone has to start somewhere, whether you are climbing ELO or getting your first win. MSI wants you to have the perfect desktop to start your gaming journey. The CODEX R2 AI 14 Gen Intel® Ultra 5 225 desktop is optimized to provide generous and effective airflow for system cooling.
