It's not uncommon to find stuff in Aldi that you wouldn't expect to see in a supermarket, but capable gaming PCs are probably on the list of "least likely" things. So it's interesting that, as of November 2, you'll be able to walk into an outlet and pick up a reasonably beefy rig – with keyboard and mouse – for AU$2,000.

At that price the specs are impressive. The MEDION desktop PC packs a GTX 1070, an Intel Core i7-6700 and 16GB DDR4 RAM. A 256GB SSD boot drive is complemented by a 2TB HDD, and it comes with an array of other useful stuff like Bluetooth 4.0, a DVD burner, Wi-Fi and the aforementioned keyboard and mouse.
