Over the last decade, Mwave has firmly established itself as one of the leading names in the Australian PC marketplace, with multiple award wins and other accolades to back it up. Whether you’re after something as simple as a cable or peripheral all the way up to a powerful gaming laptop or desktop, Mwave probably has it.
When it comes to desktop PCs, Mwave offers a large range to suit all budgets. Those with the latest Intel 13th Generation CPUs deliver impressive generational improvements, with more cores and higher boost clocks for better performance across a complete range of tasks.
The latest Respawn Ninja Prospec Ultimate Gaming PC is a genuine powerhouse. It comes with Intel’s 13th-Generation Core i9-13900K combined with MSI’s MPG Z790 Edge WIFI motherboard and MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Suprim X graphics card, just for a start.
Introducing the Respawn Ninja Prospec Ultimate Gaming PC – GeForce RTX 4090 Edition
Thanks to the huge performance increases on offer from this generation of hardware, now’s a great time to buy a new PC. Sitting at the top of the gaming CPU stack is the Intel Core i9-13900K. It’s an overclockable powerhouse and it’s a natural choice to power a top spec rig like the Respawn Ninja Prospec Ultimate Gaming PC.
The Core i9-13900K is a demanding CPU, so it needs a reliable motherboard with a stable power supply and cooling for long term reliability. MSI’s Z790 motherboards are built with these requirements in mind, while offering competitive feature sets and attractive, well thought-out designs at all price points.
Mwave’s Prospec Ultimate includes the MSI MPG Z790 Edge WIFI motherboard. It comes with an attractive silver colour scheme and a robust 16+1+1 phase VRM with 90A digital smart power stages. It can run up to five M.2 SSDs in addition to seven SATA drives, allowing creators (and file hoarders!) to run large storage arrays. It’s also PCIe 5.0 compatible with 20Gbps USB Type-C and Wi-Fi 6E.
For graphics, Mwave’s included the flagship MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Suprim X graphics card. This monster essentially guarantees that all of the latest games can be run at maximum settings at high resolution. Add to that 32GB of Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR5 memory, MSI’s Spatium M480 2TB SSD for holding a large game library and lots of apps, MSI MEG CoreLiquid S360 all-in-one liquid cooler and a powerful MSI MEG AI1300P PCIe 5.0 power supply, and you’ve got a high-end system by any measure.
Then there’s the MSI MEG Prospect 700R case. It’s got a transparent side window to show off the innards, but also features high airflow potential and an attractive front-mounted, touch-enabled IPS control panel. Among other things, this can display hardware monitoring information, control your RGB and fan speeds, or show an image or video of your choice. Form and function!
And speaking of form, Mwave’s professional build quality and attention to detail is apparent everywhere you look. The cable management is excellent. There’s no clutter anywhere. Even behind the motherboard panel, everything is neat and tidy and secured with cable ties.
A powerful system like the Prospec Ultimate requires capable cooling while retaining a good balance of airflow and silent running. If you include the radiator fans, the system has three intake and four exhaust fans. This allows the Core i9-13900K CPU to perform at its best.
Hands on with the Respawn Ninja Prospec Ultimate Gaming PC
If you’re a fan of RGB lighting, you’ll love the Prospec Ultimate system. The seven fans, the memory, the MSI MPG Z790 Edge WIFI motherboard and the MSI GeForce RTX 4080 Suprim X graphics card can all be controlled via the MSI Center’s Mystic Light app, allowing you to personalise your system the way you want it.
To give you an idea of the kind of performance you can expect from the Prospec Ultimate, we ran some benchmarks in order to compare it to an Alienware Aurora R13 system equipped with a previous generation Core i9-12900K and RTX 3090. Note that the Alienware system originally cost more than the Prospec Ultimate. It gives you an idea of the kind of performance uplift you can expect from this 2023-ready Mwave gaming PC.
Beginning with some system benchmarks, we see the Intel Core i9-13900K delivering significantly faster single and multi-threaded performance. It's the best CPU there is when it comes to gaming, and the MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Suprim X delivers a stunning performance uplift, giving users the power to run all the latest games at 4K resolution at 60fps, if not a lot more.
Whether you’re gaming, creating content or multitasking to your heart’s content, the Intel Core i9-13900K’s hybrid architecture is tailor made for the job. The performance cores take care of the heavy or most demanding tasks including gaming, while the efficient cores are designed to take care of simpler background tasks. This means you get uninterrupted high performance, even with other tasks running in the background.
All of those threads allow you to multitask to your heart’s content. You’ll be able to simultaneously game and stream with popular tools like OBS, run Discord or have a download running and a browser with dozens of tabs open all at the same time.
MSI’s MPG Z790 Edge WIFI motherboard acts as the glue for the system. It has no problem powering the other components, all the while staying cool thanks to the excellent airflow provided by the MSI MEG Prospect 700R case.
What you get when you purchase the Respawn Ninja Prospect Ultimate Gaming PC
The Prospec Ultimate isn’t just a fast system. It’s very well built, with excellent attention to detail. But there’s more to it. The system is fully tested before shipping, and if you’re worried about shipping an expensive PC, it comes packed with foam to help protect your investment from sometimes-careless couriers.
You could buy an off the shelf system from a big-name department store chain, or via a multinational PC maker, but those systems tend to lack upgradeability or come with bespoke components. It makes troubleshooting difficult, and you might get directed to an offshore call center if you need assistance. Mwave is a local company with fully Australian support, giving you that extra peace of mind that the people who built the system are the ones who’ll look after you should you need help down the line. A 2-year return-to-base warranty is a nice cherry on top.
At AU$7,699, the Respawn Ninja Prospec Ultimate Gaming PC is definitely powerful, but it’s undeniably designed for PC gamers who want it all. If you’re after something more affordable, however, there’s a whole family of Prospec systems to choose from – the Respawn Ninja Prospec Ti Gaming PC, for example, costs AU$2,799 and comes with a more worldly RTX 3060 Ti graphics card.
If you buy an Mwave Respawn Ninja Prospec Ultimate Gaming PC, you’re getting a flagship tier DIY PC without the hassle of building it yourself. You can simply unbox it, plug it in and get to gaming – or anything else you can do with a high-powered PC. Equipped with the fastest available Intel Core i9 gaming processor, feature-packed MSI MPG Z790 Edge WIFI motherboard, and truly top-shelf MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Suprim X graphics card, you’ll have a system with the grunt and features to power your games and workloads for years to come.
