Your gaming PC is intensely personal, with you through the highs and lows of your adventures.
You've always been able to personalise how you use a PC - your desktop background, your Windows theme, your software - and how parts of it look - through your case and component lightning, and your choice of gaming accessories - but you've never been able to personalise the case itself. Until now.
ALLIED INKD allows you to buy a new Allied Gaming PC, upload any image you want, and have it printed directly onto any side of your PC. Yep, the white side panel, or the tempered glass panel, or even both panels.
Your favourite game? Your personal gaming brand? Your cat? All doable with INKD.
The INKD Studio allows you to upload your artwork and see what your INKD Allied gaming PC will look like.
You can even create an account and save your design, ready to submit after you've purchased your PC.
You should prepare your INKD artwork according to the following specs:
Panel sizes/dimensions (W x H):
- Stinger: 37.6cm x 38.6cm / 15.04in x 15.44in (1066 x 1094 pixels at 72 DPI / 2220 x 2279 pixels at 150 DPI / 4441 x 4558 pixels at 300 DPI)
- Resolution: Minimum: 72 DPI. Preferred: 150 DPI or 300 DPI. Higher resolutions print better, so upload artwork in the highest resolution you can.
- Max filesize: 20MB (contact us if yours is larger)
Supported filetypes: JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, BMP
Colour mode: RGB or CMYK
Transparency: Light does not pass through printed areas. If you upload an edge-to-edge design to be printed onto a glass side panel, you will not be able to see through it, nor will any system lighting effects pass through from inside to out. That is, printed glass will not be “backlit”.
Images with transparencies (for example, if you want to only partially cover the panel with a design) must be uploaded as PNG, TIF, or GIF files. JPGs are solid images, so white will be printed where you probably wanted nothing to be printed. This is especially important for tempered glass panel printing, as uploading a JPG will result in a white background behind the base image.
What imagery can I use? You can upload any image or artwork you want. Fan art you’ve created or obtained from your go-to game or franchise? Your own personal brand, logo or gamertag? Your all-time favourite photo? Go for it!
As long as it’s within some commonsense boundaries around taste and decency, and providing you have permission to use it, you can use it. If you want to use licensed artwork or imagery, you need to obtain permission before submitting it. We don’t generally print registered trademarks like brand logos, unless you can provide the proof that you have permission to use them.
This image has reached its maximum size and cannot be scaled up any further, to prevent loss of image quality. Please upload a larger version, or choose another, larger image.
Your design has been saved! You can view, submit and even share this design from the "MY ACCOUNT" menu at any time.
Are you sure you wish to approve this design for printing?
Once you have approved your design for printing, we'll proceed to panel printing and system dispatch.
Any changes to your artwork after this point may not be possible, if printing has begun.
Perfectly preconfigured, beautifully balanced gaming PCs, in stock and ready to go.

From custom-built masterpieces to budget-friendly prebuilt machines, the options are endless and the benefits are immense. So let’s dive into the exciting world of gaming PCs and discover how to find the best gaming PC for your needs with Allied Australia!
Gaming desktops come in all shapes and sizes, catering to different budgets and performance requirements. The ideal gaming PC for you depends on your gaming preferences, desired performance, and budget. From bang for buck gaming PCs with impressive graphics cards to high-end systems built for the ultimate gaming experience, there’s a huge range of options to choose from.
Worry not, brave gamer! This post will guide you through the intricate world of gaming desktops, offering a comparison between custom and prebuilt machines to help you find the perfect fit. No matter if your aim is a budget gaming PC or the top-ranked prebuilt gaming PC, we’ve got the information you need. So come with us and let’s find your ideal gaming desktop!
Custom-built gaming PCs are the dream machines of many gamers. They offer the freedom to handpick each component, ensuring the ultimate personalized gaming experience. The downside? Choosing configurations for a custom gaming PC, or a custom PC for other purposes, requires research, technical know-how, and time.
On the other hand, prebuilt desktops lilke our Ready To Ship range offer convenience and affordability right out of the box, and here at Allied we've taken care of the hard work for you. However, these PCs may have more limited customization options. That being said, picking the best prebuilt gaming PC can help you score a great deal, especially with the release of Intel 13th gen and AMD's 7000 series processors.
So, which one is right for you? It all depends on your priorities, budget, and how much you value customization.
A top-notch gaming experience requires more than just a powerful PC. To truly immerse yourself in your favorite games, you’ll need:
The upcoming sections will delve into the key components of a gaming PC, encompassing graphics cards, CPUs, RAM, and various storage options.
Graphics cards play a vital role in delivering stunning visuals and smooth gameplay. One of the most popular series in the market today is the GeForce RTX 40 series, which offers amazing performance and support for incredible features like ray tracing, DLSS and FSR.
But the choices don’t stop there! Other commendable options include the AMD Radeon RX 7000 series, particularly the outstanding RX 7900 XTX with 24GB VRAM.
When choosing a graphics card, consider your budget and the type of games you plan to play. Higher-end cards may be more expensive but offer better performance, making them ideal for demanding games and titles at higher resolutions.
The battle between AMD Ryzen and Intel CPUs has been raging for years. AMD Ryzen processors, based on the Zen architecture, offer awesome multi-threaded performance at a great price, while Intel CPUs boast impressive single-threaded performance.
So, which one to pick? AMD Ryzen processors typically provide superior multi-threaded performance and Intel CPUs excelling in single-threaded performance, so your choice hinges on your gaming needs, budget, and individual preferences. Each brand has its unique strengths, making either a viable choice!
RAM and storage options have a significant impact on your gaming PC’s performance. More RAM allows for smoother, faster gameplay and enhanced multitasking or streaming, while larger, faster storage capacities help with quick loading times and allow for larger, more expansive game files.
When it comes to RAM, opt for DDR4 or DDR5 RAM with a high frequency and low latency. As for storage, Gen 4.0 solid-state drives (SSDs) are recommended for faster loading times and better overall performance. Keep in mind that the type of RAM and storage you choose will also depend on your budget and gaming requirements.
Budget is a crucial factor when choosing a gaming PC. From high-end gaming rigs to more affordable options, there’s a gaming PC suitable for every budget.
The sections to follow will delve into affordable gaming desktops and intelligent upgrades for those mindful of their budget, assisting you in finding the ideal gaming machine that won’t put a strain on your wallet.
When looking for an affordable gaming desktop, consider the following compatible hardware options:
Also, keep an eye out for deals and discounts to make your gaming setup even more budget-friendly. Remember, a powerful gaming PC doesn’t have to cost a fortune!
Budget gamers can still enjoy a high-performance gaming experience by making smart upgrades to their gaming rigs. Some cost-effective upgrades include:
These upgrades can significantly improve your gaming experience without requiring a significant investment. So, even if you’re on a tight budget, you don't have to settle for stock – you can still get the most out of your gaming PC with these smart upgrades!
Setting up your dream pc, a new gaming PC, might seem daunting, but with the right guidance, it’s a breeze!
The following sections will tackle the selection of an apt operating system, power supply, and peripheral devices to guarantee your gaming PC is primed for action.
Microsoft’s newest operating system, Windows 11, brings a host of thrilling features and enhancements tailored for gaming like upgraded graphics, accelerated loading times, and superior DirectX support. Moreover, it promises enhanced security and stability, along with a more extensive gaming software library. It's installed on every Allied PC by default, no matter their prices.
Peripheral devices and accessories play a crucial role in enhancing your gaming experience. Some important gaming peripherals and accessories to consider include:
Choosing the perfect gaming peripherals and accessories can make all the difference in your gaming setup.
When selecting peripherals, consider factors such as ergonomics, performance, and aesthetics. Look for gaming mice with adjustable DPI settings, mechanical gaming keyboards with customizable RGB lighting, and gaming headsets with immersive surround sound. By investing in top-quality peripheral devices and accessories, you’ll elevate your gaming experience to a whole new level! Of course, Allied offers all of these and more, at accessible prices.
After setting up your gaming PC, the next step is to personalize it. The upcoming sections will shed light on ways to individualize your PC build and boost its performance, ensuring a unique and superior gaming experience.
Your gaming PC should reflect your personality and style. By customizing components, lighting, and aesthetics, you can create a gaming machine that’s truly one-of-a-kind. Consider adding:
We haven't forgotten about cable management, and every build is professionally assembled and managed! Using cable ties, cable combs, and our famous custom sleeved cables, can keep your gaming setup organized and looking sharp, and never have to settle for stock. By personalizing your PC build, you’ll not only enhance your gaming experience, but also create a setup you can be proud of.
