Long time lurker, but as someone who ordered a very similar build PC during Black Friday, I thought I'd give people a heads up.

Expect MASSIVE wait/delay times. I know the website says they'll probably ship in February, but there's still a ton of people waiting in queues for their PCs from late November (including me). Yes, I understand that this is mostly due to Ryzen 5000x and RTX 3000 series GPUs shortages.

If you ever want to change/cancel an order, know that you'll have a ton of trouble reaching their customer service, as their lines are busy all day. The few times I've tried calling, I was put on hold for over 2 hours each time. If you check ibuypower's subreddit, you'll find a lot of angry people because they're unable to get in touch with IBP.

With that said, if you don't mind waiting a month (probably two), I hear their build quality is fine. The reason I ordered is so that I could get a new build with a new ryzen 5000 chip and RTX 3000 without having the headache of trying to find it in stock online anywhere.

Yes it is. But as you know there are some trolls and haters here. The moment I posted the deal, it started getting Thumbs Down by those. Thanks for showing your support and giving the proper voting.

The full MSRP of this PC is cheaper than scalper prices for a standalone RTX 3070

No pun intended 🤣
Looks like you can configure a different case. Any recommendations on a better choice for airflow? Also, $9 for a mechanical keyboard (not sure if it's any good, but great price). I've never bought from them and with these processors and GPUs not available anywhere, when would I even see the system?

So I've read a lot:

1. Don't forget the keyboard and usb WiFi for 9 and 5 bucks
2. Get the case with the mesh. It's like 40 more but worth it.
3. Upgrade the cooler thing to 240. Cools better. So that's good.
4. Free ram upgrade to 32gb.
5. Some have said to upgrade the power supply. Not sure to how much or to which brand. People have said 650 Thermaltake

Total with the people's input comes out to 1478
Thanks for the Ram upgrade info; I have updated my Original Post and the Saved Config Link to reflect that as well.
Another thing, for Ryzen 5 5600X, you don't need a 240mm Liquid Cooler. For basic overclocking, even the bundled Wraith Stealth Cooler is more than enough and 120 mm Liquid Cooler will provide pretty good headroom for overclocking as well. 240mm is suggested if you are planning to upgrade to something beefier like a Ryzen 9 5900X in future. Otherwise 120mm Air Cooler is fine.

That $9 Keyboard and Mouse upgrades are pretty good. Outside, they will cost around $30.

Thank you for the input. I only gathered as much as I could from reading the comments

I'm going thumb it, hands down. Great work, I regret buying an HP desktop just to get a ryzen 7 3700x six months ago, when i already a fairly recent legion rtx 2060 laptop... I wonder when they will add this to the shopmyexchange.com inventory or in their marketplace. I think that's all I am waiting for...since gpu are getting more taxed soon?

by the way, is there an option for no rgb lights and save a few more buckaroos...not a fan of them.

Number 4. Not correct. It's only free if the major brand is selected. The OP is 40 less
Which mesh case were you referring to? Thanks!

And you have done a great job on that and actually helping people here rather than trolling and fan-boy postings. Free 32GB Ram Upgrade from 16GB is really a great suggestion as that config was hidden under the 32GB Ram options, showing $40 extra and only after expanding the options, you see that free upgrade option. I, even missed that while creating the post for the first time.

Suryiasis, people down vote you because you pwn them.

Your deals are always legit and you give sound advice.

I don't always agree but I find it sound and understandable and just a different style and approach.

Some people can't step away and understand that sometimes it's not about being right but respecting your opinion.

Anyhow, as always great deal man.
