You are on every PC thread telling everyone that it's a terrible deal and how you sent 5 different CyberPower's back for a fricking EVGA 3070 card. Matter of fact I thought you said you got the ASUS 3080 prebuilt deal from BestBuy instead, or what about when you got the 3070 from the store. You're acting like a 16 year old child that just got his first prebuilt gaming computer. Nobody cares about your story or your 10% coupons. Rate the deal and move on! Jeebus

Dude, you are confusing a Custom made SOC with a x86 Desktop Processor. Console OS are based on Close to Metal architecture and can utilize hardware far better than a generic x86-64 OS like Linux or Windows. Take an example of M1 SOC from Apple. Take an example of PS4 or XBOX One which were launched in 2013 and still can play a lot of games whereas any GPU released on that time and more powerful than those SOC, will struggle hard to play those same games in Windows Platform.

Close to Metal architecture approach is designed normally a custom SOC which offers very low level of hardware access and a tailor made OS which has exact knowledge of the underlying hardware architecture. All the applications and games for that platform also follow a standard design and development procedure using the provided API and software developer kit. Because of that, those applications and games are far more optimized than a the same application developed for a generic OS platform. that's the reason, these consoles can last longer and offer better or equivalent performance than more powerful hardware being used in generic OS based platforms.

Ummm yea but since there is only one m.2 slot i would keep the hdd and upgrade the ssd yourself. Would be cheaper and can have the hdd as a backup

Yes. It's much faster, though much more expensive per GB than HDD. The usual idea is to pair fast SSD with a large capacity HDD for file storage/archival.

How is this for Quest 2? (Half Life Alyx)

And for Warzone on an LG 4K OLED? (In terms of settings/fps)

The one that is no longer available is better. It was $100 cheaper and came with the option to choose an SSD.

The processors are pretty similar. They trade off wins in which is faster in top tier video games. All things equal I'd go AMD, but for difference in specs and price the Intel model would be the definite win for me.

Looks pretty standard, probably won't fit an extended high output power supply but it's definitely upgradeable.

Had an R12 for a couple months.
It was insanely loud and the GPU ran super hot. Unless you're willing to severely modify, I'd steer clear. (And at that point, you might as well take a shot at building your own.)
I'd only suggest this PC to my enemies or my mother-in-law.

Edit: The true temperature concerns I had were with the Dell OEM 3080, not the liquid-cooled 11700k in mine.

Thanks to the Intel 11th Gen Rocket Lake which can consume near 300W during load. The Ryzen systems are not that loud because the power consumption and heat generation are far far lower than the Intel 11th Gen Rocket Lake counterparts.

Worth upgrading from 1070?
