Every Storm gaming PC is built by hand and tested in our Ayr workshop before it ships anywhere in the UK. We have kept the range simple, with five ready-to-go builds and a custom option, so it is easy to match a PC to the games you play and the screen you play them on. This guide walks through each tier and what you can expect from it.
Storm gaming PCs at a glance
Start with your screen, not the graphics card
The resolution and refresh rate of your monitor decide how much graphics power you need. A 1080p screen is far less demanding than 1440p or 4K, and a high-refresh 1080p monitor (144Hz to 240Hz) needs more frames per second to make the most of it. Match the PC to the screen and you will not pay for performance you cannot see.

What DLSS 4 means for you
The RTX 5060 and RTX 5070 cards in our Striker, Raider and Commander builds support NVIDIA DLSS 4. In supported games, DLSS uses AI to upscale and generate frames, which can give a big boost to frame rates without a visible loss in image quality. It is one of the main reasons we recommend the RTX 50-series for anyone playing the latest releases.
Planning to stream, record gameplay or play at 1440p? Jump straight to the Commander. Its 32GB of DDR5 and 12GB graphics card give you room to grow instead of upgrading in a year.
