The 14700F, RTX 4070 Supper, 1000W power supply but only 16GB RAM and everything else the same could be a better deal at 1600.

The CPU is about 4-5% slower and 4070 Super about 10-15% faster.

Also the one you're talking about has a one stick of ram. I'm wondering if it has two ram slots. Also the ram is faster in this one. The power supply is slightly lower in the one you were talking about as well has having only 512 nvme vs this 1 TB nvme.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank gamma-13

14th Gen i7 is actually slightly faster [userbenchmark.com]:

4070 Super is much better [userbenchmark.com]than non-super.

I would recommend the 1599 deal over this as it has 14th Gen i7, better GPU, less ram, but you can get it back up to 32 for the $100 difference in price. https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-2x...B0C2B7W1W4

I would say the $50 added to this to go from 500w power supply to 1000w would be a worth it here.

Yes, that ram will work on R16 at 5600Mhz (fastest this MB can do)
reference: I am running that ram right now on my R16

Neither, get the 4070 Super version for 1600. The XPS i9 is handicap with an air cooler, it will run like an i7. It needs a good 280 or 360 AIO liquid cooler but case has no space for it. You want the best GPU, and i7 CPU will do.

Uh, don't get a gaming computer with a dGPU if you don't play games, just get a mac mini or something.

Was looking at the 4070TI Super version but all of the 32G versions only have 2 RAM slots and come w/ two 16G sticks so upgrading to 64 requires tossing two sticks instead of adding two more... Need to do video and image processing so need the extra RAM.

But, love the 2x2 USB inclusion for faster large file transfer.


Or just get a cabin in the woods and throw away all my tech. Decisions...
