The Origin 5000T Millennium gaming computer makes my current desktop look extremely weak. The Origin prefabricated computer starts at $ 2,644 and the unit it sent me was the high quality $ 5,158 configuration. It is the extreme gaming computer that few can afford, but even with the power it has, it is the precision and care that you do not always see in the prefabricated facilities is what is most impressive
In terms of raw performance, the Origin 5000T makes good use of the i9 12900K and the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti. The gaming PC is the neck and neckline of most gaming and synthetic benchmarks with the other two devices we have tested with similar specifications, such as the Corsair One i300 and the Velocity Micro Raptor Z55. This is exactly what one would expect from one of our favorite gaming CPUs and a close competitor to our favorite GPUs.
At 1080p, the Origin 5000T Millennium is completely exaggerated. The system exceeded 100 frames with each game I dropped. In F1 2020, it averaged 287 fps at extremely high settings. It’s hard to recommend such a powerful and expensive gaming PC for someone who would do much better with something much more mediocre and significantly cheaper, unless you’re trying to play Fortnite at 360 Hz, so be sure to live your life. But for 4K games, and to a lesser extent, 1440p games, this prefabricated one brings steady frame rates everywhere in our tests. At all our 4K benchmarks, it averaged 60 fps with high 90 fps values. If you want to play games up to 4K and have a smooth experience, this computer should do it comfortably with a few frames.
I played quite a few Elden Rings on this computer at maximum settings. The game had problems with stuttering that, paradoxically, I never encountered on this computer – perhaps because its hardware overshadows even the proposed system requirements for the game. It works smoothly (albeit at 60 fps) and looks fantastic in its full settings. Other games like Metro Exodus ran just as well without any hiccups. This is the power of a computer with some of the most expensive components on the market right now.
Our version of the Origin 5000T Millennium had some problems other than its star hardware. It has 32 GB of Corsair DDR5 memory clocked at 4800 MHz, which could not keep up with other computers in our tests. Even so, 32 GB of memory is a nice addition if you want to do a lot of work or have a lot of chrome tabs open while playing games. It can also help if you plan to stream. DDR5 is still hard to come by right now, so it’s nice to see it included here. The difference between this computer and the others was quite small, but it is something to keep in mind when both the Corsair One i300 and the Velocity Micro Raptor Z55 are sold at a slightly cheaper price.
The Origin 5000T Millennium also has the operating system installed on a Corsair 1TB MP600 NVMe SS along with a Samsung 870 QVO Series 2TB SSD for storage. The lack of a second NVMe unit on our podium put its performance below the competition. You can customize the computer to include a second NVMe drive on the Origin website, but it will cost you a lot more. For the price of our unit, it was a bit disappointing to see a regular SATA SSD.
These little blows to the Origin 5000T Millennium do not hurt much. The computer is also equipped with a Corsair iCUE H150i Elite CPU liquid cooler with LCD pump cover. Our unit had a problem with the iCUE software that seems to be to blame for Corsair software, not Origin, but the ease with which everything is controlled (when it worked for me) and its layout in the mid-tower 5000T case is IMPRESSIVE .
If you plan to spend so much on a computer, expect to see a sleek case with lots of dust filters and RGB fans. The Origin 5000T Millennium ran cool and quiet during our tests, with a maximum CPU temperature of 90 ° C and seemed to swell. I’m not usually a big fan of RGB fans, but the 5000T case, including the glass side panels and the clean cable management inside, seems like the most tasteful way to apply it.
For connectivity, the Origin 5000T Millennium comes with a range of USB 3.0 ports. There are four USB 3.0 ports and one USB 3.1 Type-C port on the front panel, as well as a headphone jack and microphone. The back has five USB 3.2 ports, four USB 3.0 ports, one USB 3.2 Type-C port and your usual variety of audio jacks and an Ethernet port. This computer is like having a huge USB hub that plays video games. Anyone who has a lot of accessories should be happy that they do not have to worry about running out of space for years of use in this thing.
It was also nice to see that the Origin 5000T Millennium sent me in solid packaging materials. The wooden box filled with foam inside prevented the computer from hitting during shipment and the computer itself had an inflated air bag to keep all internal components safe. My unit lost both of its RAM rods (probably from being removed during transport) in the computer gut, but it was fairly easy to find and reinstall. However, if I was much less experienced with computers, it would be nice to see some documentation or a sticker that would prompt me to check to make sure the hardware was securely installed before booting.
Prefabricated ones should be as silly as possible when most of their potential owners are people who do not want to deal with the practical parts of the gaming computer, so it’s nice to see how much priority it’s for Origin, even if it could go further to prevent components such as RAM from falling.

It’s hard to avoid the price when it comes to the Origin 5000T Millennium. It’s expensive and for most people who do not need great 4K gaming, Origin offers many different ways to build this computer in a different way from our review unit. It would be ridiculous to use this computer on a 1080p display on a 4K display with a high refresh rate that can really display all the power inside the podium. Make no mistake about buying this computer in this configuration, if that’s what you’re going to run.
If it were me, I would put the CPU in an i5 12600K, a GeForce RTX 3070, 32 GB of RAM, Corsair H60i Pro XT and stay with standard fans without RGB to lower the price to around $ 3,000. You could get an RTX 3080 for about $ 500 more, but if you’re like many gamers and still use a 1080p display, you really do not need it. The 5000T case and the overall build quality are worth the time to combine and combine the material that fits your budget for this system.
Even with the expected price increases due to supply problems, the Millennium still operates at a higher price than some of the other competitors with similar equipment we have considered.
But given the availability right now, it is not far behind in performance and shows the power of a clean build in a stellar case. It’s a gaming PC that is definitely not for everyone, but if you have the time and money to customize it to your liking, it’s a fantastic choice for your new platform.
