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...

One has to wonder why Thunderbolt 4 isn't on any of the USB-C ports? Same with the XPS deal posted here -- no TB4 on the USB-C even though top-of-the-line Intel chips.

About $1360 after 10% new user code and 10% AMEX statement credit.

isn't this a better deal with a better processor and power supply?

All this using an 500W PSU is laughable.

In order to achieve this is Alienware made the CPU to take on less power. Meaning you won't be using the full potential of the CPU. This probably applies to the GPU as well.

I built my own computer with similiar specs but I put in an EVGA SuperNOVA 850 plus 850W.

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.

I concur with L2L here and was about to pull the trigger on this recommendation; however, I opted for the Feb '24 Costco deal https://slickdeals.net/f/17318836-cyberpowerpc-gamer-supreme-liquid-cooled-gaming-tower-14th-gen-int... , which is back in stock; as it has 32Gb, slightly smaller ps at 850w but still has 2 open ram slots and 2 yr warranty (doubled with the Costco Citi card)... not a fan of the white case, but will probably only add to WAF (wife approval factor).
