Walmart’s Summer Sale has lowered the price of the iBuypower Y40 gaming desktop to $1,749, after a $750 instant discount. The price undercuts comparable prebuilt offers on Amazon’s Prime Day, positioning the system as the most affordable high‑performance PC on the market right now.
The Y40 packs an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor and a Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics card, paired with 32 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD. IGN’s testing notes that the 9800X3D’s 3D‑V‑Cache technology delivers gaming performance on par with pricier X3D chips, while the RX 9070 XT earned a perfect 10/10 rating and outperforms the Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti in several benchmarks. Both components are capable of running demanding titles such as Pragmata, 007: First Light, and Forza Horizon 6 at 4K resolution and 60 fps or higher.
Given the strong CPU and GPU scores, IGN’s Jackie Thomas calls the 9800X3D the best gaming CPU for most users, and the RX 9070 XT is the most cost‑effective 4K‑ready GPU available. Shoppers looking for a ready‑to‑play rig should act quickly, as inventory may run out before the sale ends.
