You get 35% of your points back on your selected airline, or if you fly first class. So in a perfect world the cashback is worth more if you use it this way.

It's a Dell though… you can easily buy a 4090 at $1599 nowadays or up to $1649. Save for the 13900KF all the other parts aren't that desirable. Probably a proprietary motherboard that has the cheapest spec DDR5 and slow SSD that does not match its CPU and GPU tiers. Based on Gamer's Nexus reviews of prior Dell PCs I wouldn't be surprised if the 13900KF/13900K that already throttles on good high end 360mm AIOs get throttled worse by Dell. The GPU and CPU are the only worthwhile items, the rest are somewhat e-waste.

C'mon that's a ridiculous reach. Even if you are anti-Dell, if you were able to get a system like this for under $2k that would beat whatever you can come up with. So you probably need to upgrade the cooling, but everything else would be fine. You make it sound as if everything Dell makes disintegrates upon first use. Even if everything else was e-waste, as you say, the GPU and CPU alone would be worth it.
