Google search shows that this CPU comes with integrated Intel UHD 750 graphics, so if you sell the GPU, the PC could come out pretty cheap. Good specs IMHO if you either need a gamer, a miner, or just need a nice high-end productivity machine and can sell the video card.

Any idea if that's a SATA SSD, or an M.2 PCIe NVMe?

Edit: Specs page of the website says "NVMe M.2"
Specs also say 1xHDMI, 1xDisplayPort. I need 3xDisplayPort, and I wonder if those are just the built in video ports, or if that's what's on the RTX3060.

This doesn't make sense, aren't the 3060s going for $750 on eBay?

Legitimately asking as I've been out of the loop on desktop PCs - is this really a terrible deal? The comparable deals posted the past few months were for varying CPUs (i5-i7 vs i711700), 1660 or 2060 nvidia, 16GB ram (vs 32), smaller 256 SSD (vs 1TB) and those were between 750-900+?

What should the price point be for this to make it a good deal as spec'd?

I wish people would quit posting about his stupid review. Dell computers are fine. There are NO hidden charges or monthly fees.

The "hidden" monthly charge is only one of his issues, no? Aren't the rest around the build?

I remain very unimpressed with my XPS, which had a non-functional optical drive, an unreliable power LED, and multiple USB ports that have failed over time.

He reviews 1 of the computers(g5, i believe) and figures they all are bad. I have 2 dell xps 8940se running 24/7 without sny issues.
