I'm not really on the Intel train, but doesn't this seem like a pretty good deal?
The CPU + GPU alone are somewhere in the $1600-$1700 (conservatively) range

You pretty much answered your own question. Self built, the cpu and video card is going to push you in the 1600 dollar range. Add ram, case, mb, psu(this one is platinum certified too), windows, ssd aaand a singular place for all of your warranty needs and I think you've got a good deal here.

I build a similar rig and spend well into the 2k range

I wasn't really asking the question exactly... it was more rhetorical. I was asking because I thought this deal would get more traction than it seems to be.

For a top-tier prebuilt gaming rig this is about 10-15% cheaper than building yourself.

No worries though... every DIY jerk will be like "I can build this for cheaper if I buy used parts, use a gray market windows license, and then hope and pray for rebates"

EDIT: Per a helpful post from another user, I wasn't trying to say that you (eculley) were a DIY jerk.

Seems to be a good deal for an absolute monster of a rig. If I just had $2k in my piggy bank 💰

A very good prebuilt deal and HP Omen line is decent (obviously backed by a large company).

I just... why only 2666 MHz RAM? I know it's less important on an Intel system, but you can get 3000 and 3200 or even faster for "$150" (which seems to be the only overpriced option here). I mean you can get that fancy RAM that lights up and dances.

Was thinking the same... decent deal...wish the RAM was better and SSD was better...

$479 for cPU
$1100 for GPU
$150 for Platinum PSU
You're at $1729

You have $251 to spare... but is the RAM and SSD and the rest really $251? Of RAM were higher speeds as you said, you then really have SSD wasted... and would likely have to purchase an extra SSD fit for that gaming-grade.

But if you're satisfied with it... I guess it's a good deal since you can't build it for cheaper? But if you were aiming for that class, it feels gimp unless you upgrade the RAM and SSD and spend another $150 on RAM and another $180 on a 1TB Samsung EVO+ SSD. I know they're optional... but... yea feels gimped. Maybe flip the included RAM and SSD to get some cash back for the upgrade?

This + $330 in upgrades (total = $2310) and you got yourself a rocking PC which is going to be about the same as building one yourself (face it, you're going to get 1TB SSD and 32GB PC4-3200+) if you're already ready to spend this rang. ;-). Only difference is you might get the parts you want/preferred brand if you BYO.

You are comparing apples to oranges. If you want to upgrade the rams and storage on this then you can pick the cheapest alternative (8gb ram + 1tb hdd) and the total of this build will be $1,790.99

Add to it your upgrades +$330 and you total will be $2120.99

Uhhh wasn't the guy agreeing with you? Where was he being a DIY jerk? Reading comprehension.

RAM, SSD, motherboard, and case. Those last two are non-trivial and - for anything decent - cost more than the RAM and SSD. You'd be spec'ing some cheap-ass components to get all 4 of those for under $250. (edit) I do agree that the 256 GB SSD is almost useless, but it would function as a perfectly good boot drive with reasonable space for basic apps, and then get a 2TB SSD and install all of your game files there. Also makes it easier if you decide to get a smaller game drive and upgrade later since you don't have to migrate the OS.

That guy wasn't a DIY jerk....I wasn't trying to imply that. I was saying that there will be other DIY jerks that will say that.

Just check out every other thread about any prebuilt out there.
