Decent deal for anyone who doesn't want to bother building their own you just can't guarantee the brands of the parts if you buy it from BestBuy - some have gotten blower GPUs while others have gotten MSI.
I have this. The Cyber power liquid cooler is trash. So dam loud. If I wasn't so lazy and cheap I'd replace with a noctua. I hear it through my headphones while gaming. Even at idle
Good price but unknown parts list makes it suspect to me. I bought the exact same configuration from Microcenter because I didn't have the time to build it. The difference is I can identify all the parts in the powerspec and the case is a Lian Li, so everything can be easily upgraded. I had a cooler whine coming from my original GPU, I took it back to microcenter and they upgraded me at no charge to the next level up 2070 Super (because the exact replacement wasn't in stock)
I paid $100 more on Christmas eve so this deal is pretty good but I would buy it and triple check everything internally before the return period is over.
For anyone curious about this PC, the default configuration has all fans oriented for exhaust. My friend got it, we didn't notice it at first, but in games the gpu gets quite toasty. We flipped the 2 fans on the side panel which helped a little bit.
Right now the 2070 super is probably the best gpu without spending 1k. If not the 1080ti is the best bang for the buck and it is older yet.
Not sure how "old" you are referring to.

If it had the 570. I'd be in like Flynn.

What's up with the 570 Mobo?

Overall a better option for this CPU
