Looks similar to the Skytech Walmart has for $849, but the latter has 32GB RAM.
I bought the former. It still sits unopened waiting to see if anything better comes up. This might be it. $50 less for half the ram. Other than the ram and case, it's mostly identical. Can't say for the MOBO.

Memory comes in 2X8GB sticks so if you want 32GB (to match the Skytech) better add another $50 or more right?

You're looking at anywhere between $80 and $130 for a 32GB DDR5 kit depending on clock speed and timings.

The safe bet is to assume there's only two slots, so it would be a 16GB pair.

Also, you never want to run mismatched memory for performance reasons and OEM hardware is very hard to match.

I bought this the last time it was $799 and it is great. Runs everything extremely well.
On mine I'm only getting about 300 fps on Star Wars Squadrons with everything set to "ultra" on an ultra wide screen 😂

Quote from Gloyard :
Will this run most games smooth at 1440p? Really looking to buy something for my gigabyte m32uc monitor.
That's what resolution I run. See above. I think you'll be very pleased and it runs super quiet to boot.

Note: my original Windows install was a little fubared. Ended up doing an in place install of 11. Only took about 15 minutes and seemed to fix the issue where some Microsoft app store programs like Paint failed to install and they would not install manually either. Must have been a fluke.

That would depend on the game.

Some are more demanding than others, especially with all the unoptimized ports that come out.

1080P across the board is probably a more reasonable expectation without knowing what exactly you play.

Yes, I'm running cyberpunk at 1440 and high settings (not all ray tracing) and get about 100 fps

Is this Walmart deal better than the Costco one?

Costco one has 13700f, 2TB ssd, 32gb DDR4 ram but $200 more. Costco motherboard only has AC WiFi vs 6e, so it seems this MSI has a better motherboard and connectivity. Could I upgrade this RAM and SSD for under $200? Is DDR5 likely worth it in the long run?

MSI's website shows DDR5 @ 5200 MHz, so u/wherestheanykey is right on track with cost. For example, a set of 32 GB (2x 16 GB) is $90 and a 64 GB set (2x 32 GB) is $149, Corsair Vengeance from Newegg.

Unfortunately, I can't find any information on how many RAM slots there are.

Alternatively, you could buy the MSI Codex R 13NUC5-075US for $949 on Newegg. It comes with the all of the same components, but ups the RAM to 32 GB and the SSD to 2 TB. It's currently back ordered, but they are expecting more stock on Tuesday, FWIW.

Not with max setting and ray tracing for AAA unless the game support frame generation.

It's a 3 years old game. I don't get why ppl quote FPS for old games as a benchmark to make a point. Might as well say it run mine craft at a gazillion FPS.

With the GPU market in a lull, this is a really good machine that appears to be future proof. If you need something now this is a no brainer at this price.

1000% yes, if that's still an option. I see it sold out, but certainly seems worth the extra to basically last you one more generation of gaming.
