Just keep it as 1tb basic hard drive and buy a 1tb ssd to add on for $80. It'll be cheaper than upgrading to their 256 ssd
Re. 2080TI. Unless you get an EVGA, the brand doesn't matter too much. EVGA stands out just because of their customer service, whereas people have varying experiences with pretty much all other brands. (Of course, some people have had bad CS experiences with EVGA too, but in general they are by far the best.) All brands have very good, and relatively poor cooling solutions, depending on which model you are getting. So really: if you are considering brand, it's pretty much "EVGA or anything else". Then decide whether you want an A-chip (binned, and factory overclocked) or a non A-chip. Performance will typically be 3ish% apart, but no more than 5%. From there on, decide on how much you care about acoustics - in terms of performance, silicon lottery will have a bigger effect that thermals, so don't get too hung up on a few Hz difference because of downclocking. Edit: blower style cards might be the exception to this as they really don't perform well, and will lower your clock rate and performance considerably on the order of 10-15% and are really only sensible under very specific conditions.

All that said, you do not get manufacturer warranty if you buy a pre-built. So if you definitely are going the pre-built route, your main considerations should be A-chip or not, and acoustics. I haven't seen any convincing evidence that one brand has a higher fail rate than others (but if someone has that, please do share), so if I were you, I would not consider brand a factor.

Better than what I paid individually by almost double. Not sure about what the mother board, ram (b-die or what).

I def don't need this at all, but for people seriously considering, make sure to research the specific gpu for cooling etc.

Doesn't this chassis have massive cooling issues?

The 2080ti is a blower design and yes the chassis is way to small to effectively cool all the components. The motherboard is also another weak link in this. I ended up changing to a new case so I could put an aftermarket cooler on the 2080 ti.

Drop the ram/ssd to cheapest and you got a i9/2080ti for $1700. A good ram is $80 and ssd~$100 for 1tb

I want to get i9 9900K and RTX 2080 Ti but I have no clue about what motherboard model and GPU brand. So I talked with HP customer service and this is the specs of this PC

as you see this PC has a crappy HP "Shire" motherboard and I still don't know what brand of the GPU either. so it's No for me

Anyone seen a better current BF value for a casual gamer build as below?

OMEN Obelisk Desktop PC - 875-1045ma;

https://store.hp.com/us/en/Config...quantity=1

Specs
AMD Ryzen™ 5 3600 Processor (a $40 upcharge from the 3500)
HyperX® 8 GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB)
1 TB 7200 rpm SATA
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1660 Ti (6 GB GDDR6 dedicated)

This system would be $789+tax.
If you have a Chase Ink card with the HP 20% credit, seems that you'd get a pretty decent rig for around $630+tax. Upgrade on your own with an SSD and another 8GB stick of RAM, and this seems like a winner. Would appreciate any feedback!

Kinda looking at this one too for $1530 after coupon. (Was 1699)

https://store.hp.com/us/en/pdp/om...c-880-175x

UPDATE: I ended up getting Obelisk with 9700k and 2080S for $1200. Was coming up $1296 but I called HP and they took it down to $1200.
