I was gonna write a paragraph, but to simplify, I'd prefer an American vendor and manufacturer versus Chinese as I'd like a more reliable warranty AND to keep profits pushed to my country versus them. I'm not even sure if there's an American builder that's a similar price..
Why buy a pc just to then Immediately replace mobo and ram?
Not like this deal saves you so much (if at all) that you can go do that. Even after factoring in selling old mobo and ram.
The easy answer is desire. But we can do a simple cost benefit analysis.
The cheapest I've seen a 4070 pre built is 1600$ months ago. Usually closer to 1700.
So between 300-400$ difference on the cheapest available. If you can get a motherboard and ram for 300-400 then it would break even. If you then sold the old mobo and ram that would make this a better deal.
You might be able to get an am5 board, ram and processor for near that amount. Which imo would definitely be worth it after the sale of the old board and ram and cpu.

I wouldn't recommend swapping mobo/ram. The 14th gen is rumored to use a new socket. Which means your entire upgrade would be for ddr5. You could upgrade to a faster processor of the same generation but you can do that with the existing mobo too. So when you are ready to upgrade again you'll need a new mobo anyway. Your carry over is just 16gb of ddr5 ram for a swap.

Yea it's too much hassle for me. Some people are into it though.
Waiting for the partspicker to dissect this.
It's the proprietary crap in it that ruins it.
It does say Asus mb, so might be ok.
Read the reviews, QA problems.

Right, support for China is suicidal since they openly state their goal to destroy the West (just like RUz).
Is this worth it for 1400$ NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 16GB, AMD 8-Core Ryzen 7 7700X Processor (Beats i7-12700K), 32GB DDR5 RAM, 512GB NVMe SSD + 2TB HDD, Windows 11 Home) w/Gaming Bundle
Not sure about ryzen never tried it but lmk and I will post ram is like 5300mhz or something
Is it worth 1400$ for this if so I'll post NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 16GB, AMD 8-Core Ryzen 7 7700X Processor (Beats i7-12700K), 32GB DDR5 RAM, 512GB NVMe SSD + 2TB HDD, Windows 11 Home) w/Gaming Bundle

By proprietary do you mean things that can be changed due to proprietary form factor? It has Asus mobo, video card and Intel CPU in a standard ATX case. What could be proprietary? Maybe the PSU but should be a straight swap if so.

Can you not just upgrade the motherboard and RAM to DDR5? and call it a day.
