The Novatech Elite Sentinel retails for a price of £1549.99 including VAT.
As this is a pre-built system it is, of course, important to know how this price stacks up against real-world components prices. In that regard, the Novatech Elite Sentinel is exceptionally good value. While we did have to modify our comparative build slightly to accommodate for the components the website was unable to obtain a price for, we received a ‘bare bones’ component price of £1557.41. Those individual shipping costs can really start to mount up when you look to build your own system!
The bottom line is that this system does appear to be available to buy, premade, for less than the individual components would cost you. When you consider that Novatech throws in a 3-year warranty, lifetime support, and their expert know-how into this system (as well as presumably a little profit margin), the Novatech Elite Sentinel represents some amazing value!
It will, however, cost you a little extra if you want to obtain an operating system with it ready to run out of the box.
When you take the system specifications of the Novatech Elite Sentinel into account, it falls into a category of what you would call the lower-mid top tier of systems. They’re not the best specifications available, but they’re close enough, and still bloody good!
As such, as clearly demonstrated in our benchmarks tests, while this isn’t the strongest system we have reviewed, it’s without a doubt still an excellent build in terms of gaming and overall day to day tasks. One that should see you easily settled in with no problems on the highest gaming settings (within reason) for at least the next 4-5 years.
The system as a whole looks fantastic. It’s both sleek and professional with more than a little RGB flash that adds rather than detracts. It’s genuinely hard to think of a situation where this PC would not look good. Be it in an office or gaming palace.
The build quality from Novatech is undeniably great and this is highlighted not only in the benchmarking results but also in the aesthetics and basic good PC building practice of cable management and system design.
For a pre-built system, this would usually be the part of the review where we try and off-set the overall price of the system against the case of just buying the parts and building it yourself. The Novatech Elite Sentinel, however, throws a (very pleasant) spanner in that usual comparison.
Seemingly retailing for a price below the sum of its parts and packing a 3-year warranty, if you were looking for a strong gaming PC on a relatively solid but still reasonable high-end gaming PC budget, then the Novatech Elite Sentinel will provide you with some excellent gaming performance with build quality with style beyond question.
