Hold the line until all the old models are sold out or removed from shelves. Then you can wait another few years for the new models to come down in price.

16gb ram and "gaming" don't go together.
Other than simulators like DCS or large scale strategy games on epic resolution, 16GB is more than adequate to play games.

What every person needs to know about these types of prebuilts is that they advertise the best components (CPU/GPU) but the other components, such as the case and motherboard, are utter trash.

A good comparison would be a sports car which is advertised to have a Corvette engine, 8 speed transmission, expensive leather racing seats and a slick paint job, but the specs fail to mention the car has a frame made of scrap 2x4's.

Can you point us to some quality prebuilts that are currently a good deal?

Thanks, I'm aware of that one. That is extremely YMMV though and not available at any of my local Costcos. Anything else out there that is available right now under the $1200 price range?

This is a one in a full moon chance for you to get it. Only 1 person reported the price in one location in the entire U.S. and to top it off no receipt attach..

So you're mad about the 500 watt power supply basically?

You can do better for this price unless you want 64GB RAM. All the cheapest deals have a memory limit of 32GB.

Otherwise, you'll be stuck building something yourself (what I ended up choosing last weekend) or waiting. This really should be $700 on sale to match the recent 12400+3060 deals lately.

And then those are the old models and the cycle starts again.....

It was this price at the store a few months ago as well as well as their laptop . It is last years model but still worth it and no you can't build this for this price.

Not sure why everyone's so down on this deal. Seems like a good price for entry level gaming or a solid office PC (4 monitor support + gaming/video editing). I chose the absolute cheapest equivalent parts (b450 chipset mobo) and it came to ~$800. That still doesn't include windows license, wifi/bt, kb/mouse or assembly. Adding the license, wifi/bt and kb/mouse would get you over this cost.

You can get a modded dell xps, install a A2000 or better graphic cards for $400—500. Used like new, better quality parts, gold series power supply.

Intel 8th to 10th gen quad core, 32gb dual channel ram, 512gb ssd, A2000/3060.

Modding is the way to go, less wasting time building it from diy scratch.

Links for a 10th gen XPS setup with a 12gb gpu for $800?

I'd say this is not a good deal at all. The 3060 is not going to hold up very long on newer titles, and the ram is quite low for the price too.

The 3060 with 12 GBs of ram holds up better than the 3070 or 3080 do on newer titles because of the VRAM requirements.
