October 3rd is the estimated ship date. Two months wait time is not worth it at this price point I say.

One issue with this model is the RAM is limited to 4400Mhz (not even the base 4800Mhz) regardless of the speed of the RAM you put in.

People hate the looks and the form factor of these PCs, but the deal is actually decent.

The performance of these junk cases is dreadful. The build quality questionable, at best. Go check out reviews by people like GN on these prebuilts.... they are scarily bad.

edit..
look at the top mounted radiator- it"vents" into a sealed plastic chamber. zero air flow. and the numbers prove it.

not everyone wants to build their own pc, and I get that, but these horribly designed pcs that will never give anywhere near the performance of the components because the case design is criminally bad

That would be the R15 series, and yes, the case has some redesign to help with cooling.

The R15 also fixes the slow RAM speed issue (limited to 4400Mhz in the R13).

But, of course, the R15 isn't being offered at giveaway pricing like the R13.

I don't recall these "solid specs" selling for $1150 back in 2021. Am I wrong?

What are the 2023 "solid specs" that one can get prebuilt for $1150 today?

What did you expect for $1150, a 13th gen i9 K-series CPU and a 4090?
