anyone have an idea of the RAM config supplied in this? 1 x 16GB or 2 x 8GB? Looks like it is CL40 RAM.

Lenovo's MB is pretty bad
Its B660, its neither bad or good, just standard, no crazy Dell type front usb ports bolted on or whatever.

Based on the sticker on the case, its a custom steelseries case.

speaker and voice ports are always broken, had technician came to fix but no luck. Also, there are many reddit posts about this issue.

I'm not seeing it on reddit, ports are prone to failure in general though.

Not sure what a technician can do for a built in port beyond change the motherboard, unless you mean the one on the front panel which could be swapped...maybe.

Let's see if they drop this lower for Xmaxxx/New Year's. Would bite for 999, given that Dell offered XPS 8950 for 849 (12700, 3060Ti, 16GB DDR5, 1TB SSD + 1TB HDD)
If want to play it safe, you can purchase this towards the end of the sale(12/13/22). If the price drop for Christmas/New Year's sale, then you can request a price adjustment. As long as your purchase date is within 30 days of the sale and the sale isn't over, they will honor it. Worst case scenario, if it does go over 30 days and they won't honor the price adjustment, you can return and rebuy for cheaper price. You can return/exchange within 90 days of date of purchase for computers.

Probably not. Manufacturers are incentivized to advertise the flashiest shiniest specs to get more sales, and customers usually don't/won't/can't realize/detect they aren't getting the last 10% of max performance that can usually only be detected on a synthetic benchmark at peak performance levels.

It's not right, and very anti-consumer, since (moreso with laptops) the specs can be misleading. Many cases of i5-1240P's doing better than i7-1260P's, i5-12400H better than i7-12700H, etc. 3070 vs 3060 vs 3060Ti? Depends on the wattage and thermal package of the chassis, etc. etc. So basically the specs only give you a rough ballpark of actual performance, and sometimes systems perform much worse than the specs would lead you to believe, due to thermal constraints or other reasons OEMs don't publicly expose.
You bring up a question for those of us that aren't as hardware-oriented when it comes to computers: is there a site that tries to benchmark all these components and shows different builds and how they compare to each other?

I know NotebookCheck does a decent job with it for, well, notebooks, but what about these pre-built systems?

What's a "voice port"? That's terminology I don't think I've heard before and makes me think you're talking about a telephone.

Geez. Does anyone know of any company that does pre-builts that DOESN'T throttle or undervolt? Don't really care about the reason, noise, power, cost cutting, etc. Serious question.
My ibuypower bf deal -i7/1tb/16gb/3080 doesn't throttle or uv
