Dell might have the best price we've ever seen for a prebuilt gaming PC equipped with a GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card. Right now you can get a Dell XPS gaming PC with this coveted GPU for only $2294.99 shipped after a 10% off coupon code "10OFFCLEAR". RTX 4090 GPUs are currently difficult to find at MSRP; right now, a 4090 GPU on Amazon sells at a $300-$500 markup. If this is the GPU you really want, you will definitely save money by getting this prebuilt PC like this one instead of going the DIY route.

If the GPU is worth the $1600 MSRP (it's not, unless you are making money with the GPU, but that's where the market is currently), that puts the rest of the computer at $700. That is assuming you can buy a 4090 for MSRP, which isn't possible very often. You're looking at maybe $1800 minimum.

With current prices, you can build a comparable machine for about $2600 (plus money for Windows 11, a keyboard, and mouse). Dell's offering saves you about $300 over this:

Intel Core i7-13700 2.1 GHz 16-Core Processor
ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 72.8 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
ASRock B760M-H/M.2 Micro ATX LGA1700 Motherboard
Crucial CT2K8G48C40U5 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR5-4800 CL40 Memory
TEAMGROUP MP33 512 GB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
MSI GAMING TRIO GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB Video Card
Thermaltake Versa H18 MicroATX Mini Tower Case
Deepcool PX1000G 1000 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

Total for that build with current prices is $2636.75.

some say this is ugly, but the RGB puke on every "gaming" PC looks ugly to me. This is a good deal for what it is. Can't build it cheaper.

The problem is the Dell uses shitty parts, and it's ugly. shake head

Motherboards are the first to go, and dell's are absolutely bottom barrel for Power delivery VRM designs. Once it blows, you have to get another one that fits, and that one is just as bad quality if not worse than the first (if buying used).

My experience is very different. I've a Dell Vostro 400 from *2008* with a Intel Core 2 quad Q6600, it is still working just fine. I periodically clean internally but it runs like a beast. Actually, I want it to die so that I have a stronger justification for buying a new desktop. šŸ˜†

R16 is priced higher right for 4090

Thanks OP, grabbed a 4090 with I9 13900k and 32gb ram. I have a couple OG(Old Guy) gamer buddies who already have this particular XPS with 4090s and no cooling issues experienced. Were done building our own rigs and leave that stuff to our kids. There can be some CPU bottlenecks with the 4090, hence the I9 to take care of any content creation issues or 4k gaming. My kids say they think this little XPS box with a 4090 inside is a cool "Sleeper" or maybe they know they get to shuffle a XPS GTX1070 that can still play about any game at 1440 and my old Asus i7 11700 rtx3070 because of its purchase.

Cool but we're talking about looks, not airflow.

This isn't ugly. Its just a basic looking PC.

The over top the RGB monsters are ugly anymore.
What does "are ugly anymore" even mean?

Did you mean they are ugly anyways?

Does anyone know the motherboard (although dell oem) model number or how many RAM slots and up to what MHz of RAM does it support?

Quote from Hat-Trick :
People on SlickDeals constantly/relentlessly bash Alienware because of cooling issues (with earlier models, which are twice the size of this). How does a 4090 + a liquid cooled CPU work on a tiny case with a single exhaust fan?

In any case, some might have a 10% off AMEX benefit on their card for another almost $250 statement credit (I did).
Another consideration is considering how cramped it is, you're going to need to remove that GPU and probably do some other light disassembly to go in and upgrade the storage capacity which is painfully small by default on this build

I've never had any problem with Dell and had 2 Inspirons in the last 15 years. This price is incredible, but waiting to see what AI technology comes with the 5090 later this year. Truly want a 4k machine that does 4k/120+ with RT overdrive. After seeing the 4090 doing 45 fps with Cyberpunk, we're still not there yet.

Amex $120 back on $600, split to 3 card payment.
$2295 - 3x120 = $1935.
Decent deal, but no need for such power and still ~2k
Did you get 3x120 already? The deal shows as one-time on my end.

Quote from Hat-Trick :
Did your last 3 Dell's have 1000W power supplies and a 4090 GPU in them? Both generate considerable heat. My XPS 8950 is dead silent also, but it doesn't have anything in it that runs at the temperatures of a 4090 and a 1000W PS, both of which would run very hot when gaming and pushing the system to extremes.
So you don't have a 4090 in yours but you have an opinion? Dell isn't doing to sell a PC that is going to crash due to lacking power or cooling... ASUS is much more notorious for that these days. The first thing wrong with this machine is only having two memory slots. The second is that it's not a K processor, which is just what you get with an XPS. The gains you get from overclocking isn't so much so as to make it a deal breaker. Also, yes, I did upgrade my PSU in my last system to a 1000w without cooling modifications when I put a hungrier GPU in it. Never had any issues. The cooling designs in the upper end dell systems are not just some fans thrown in a box.. Quit with your fud campaign.
