Decent price. Costco is selling the same system without the graphics card for $700 (they claim it's a $300 discount [costco.com]).
Literally on the page is the ability to upgrade the PSU for $50 - to a very good PSU. And add liquid cooling (that they use on the K series) for another $50.

Dells have issues, but the PSU and cooling problems you guys are mentioning are literal options you can change direct from Dell before you order - I don't even think you clicked the link.
Going forward in your life, you should understand and learn to know that you aren't as smart as you think you are and this is making you overconfident.

Which makes this a good value if you do want the RTX 4060 Ti and this config works for you overall. And a great value if you have the AmEx offer on your card.

I do have the AmEx offer and would jump on it immediately if it had 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD. 512GB SSD is just too skimpy on a PC aimed at a power user.

Looks like burning hot garbage. I don't hate pre builds but this one looks terrible just from the look of it.

Considering how many times you said "look", are we to assume you mean the actual case?

It looks like a workstation, sure.

But what does that have to do with the components?

460 watt PSU is a joke

It's an 80Plus Platinum rated power supply. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

If you don't understand the difference, you're probably used to overbuying wattage on an 80Plus Bronze.

That's fine, but your electric bill would appreciate the Platinum.

4060 ti is 160w tgp. 460w is plenty. Unless you're tryna compensate for something. know what I'm sayin sayin

Really if you want to nitpick you should be asking for two sticks of ram and a bigger HD.

While it's true that 32GB of RAM doesn't cost enough to justify it not being the standard these days (it's about a $20 difference for OEMs), the cost of the 512GB NVME does reflect the current price of mid to upper range drives right now.

I priced out a system with similar components and was already over $1000 even before adding a drive.

You can always add a 1TB drive and keep the 512 as a secondary.

It doesn't take much effort to clone drives these days, especially with how fast they are.

Quote from rcvscoupons :
i agree, i run into this issue with my current xps 8940 and the worst part is that you cant upgrade Dell PSUs and also the graphics cards for dell are custom and down clocked to meet the lower PSU requirement

So you can't take out this GPU and put it in another board???
