Beneath the beige of Maingear’s Retro95 lurks a beast. This “pizza box” PC, a nostalgic wink to the days of pixelated Wolfenstein and Sierra’s point-and-click adventures, hides a secret: the power to run Cyberpunk 2077 in glorious, ray-traced 4K. It’s old-school aesthetics with new-school muscle.
Beneath its unassuming exterior lies a beast waiting to be unleashed. Cramming an RTX 5080 into this machine is like strapping a rocket to a skateboard. Whether you bleed blue or red, Intel and AMD processors, up to the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, find a welcoming home. A colossal 96GB of DDR5 memory and 8TB of lightning-fast Gen4 NVMe storage ensure you’re never left waiting. Cooled by whisper-quiet Noctua fans and powered by a robust 850W PSU, this unassuming box is a ray-tracing monster disguised as a desktop PC. Prepare to be amazed.

The Retro95’s chassis? A delightful echo of yesteryear, and a clever nod to the Silverstone FLP01 – hardly surprising, given Maingear’s pedigree in custom PC builds. This case is pure beige nostalgia, a horizontal homage designed to cradle a glorious CRT monitor. Remember those days? From the early ’80s to the mid-’90s, this wasthedesktop standard. (Tower PC enthusiast? Silverstone’s FLP01 successor might be more your speed, offering a vertical vibe for a modern twist.)
The Retro95: Where hidden I/O meets modern airflow. Remember crushing Carmen Sandiego on a rig that looked just like this? Pop in a DVD drive and relive the glory days. Underneath the hood? Pure innovation.
