Meh. They just had this same set up with the 4090 for $2399 without the 10% off coupon.
Speaking from extensive research after getting really lucky on the 4090 setup at the exact same price, here are some suggestions:

Order a second SSD right away. That 1TB will fill up surprisingly fast, and you're going to want to reserve that first drive for your OS and go-to applications. After that, everything else can go on a second SSD.

For me, I'm going with a 4TB Western Digital (WD_BLACK SN850X NVMe™ SSD). From my research, it seems like this drive and the Samsung 990 Pro are the drives of choice. They are typically priced the same, with WD often slightly cheaper. Right now, the WD is $319, but if you get really creative with coupons and cashback, you can knock a full $100 off that price before taxes. I deliberated settling on a 2TB drive, but if you're paying $120-$150 for 2TB, why not just spend the extra $70-$100 and double your space? For me, it's a no brainer since I also edit video and have a huge Steam library for gaming.

Oh, also, don't forget to buy a heat sink to cool off these drives! I'm a sucker for RGB. If anyone has any suggestions on a cheap but reliable solution, I'm all ears.

For RAM, if you're looking to upgrade, I can only find one kit that seems to play nice with this particular motherboard (please please please correct me if I'm wrong on this). That is the Crucial Pro (Crucial Pro 64GB Kit (2x32GB) DDR5-5600 UDIMM
CP2K32G56C46U5). It's on sale right now for $140 through Amazon and Crucial. No real cashback opportunities that I can see. For that reason, I'm actually holding off and am going to watch the market closely. I don't see any major rush to upgrade from 32GB to 64GB. It may be fun to see a performance jump if/when I do finally upgrade.

Hope this helps. I've been very active in Reddit and here in the SD forums, trying best I can to get as much info as possible about these rigs.
The one with the 4090 was the same price (w/ 10% off) a few days ago https://slickdeals.net/share/iphone_app/fp/951903

The previous 4090 deal also killed the 15% cash back for dell

Are you sure about that? Every time I check, I'm seeing 15% CB.

Valid point. Both are very comparable. Splitting hairs, but the Lenovo has a 4080, not a 4080 Super, and a 850w PSU, not 1000w.

That said, I'm there are pluses to the Lenovo. Does anyone want to chime in regarding the case, airflow and cooling, warranty, etc?
4080 vs 4080 super are like 1 fps from each other basically the same card

I am not seeing any. Are you sure the 15% CB is not for refurbished?

FWIW I'm showing 5% on the site everyone is talking about. Only refurbished shows 15%. 830am EST. I did show 15% last week on New.

Gigabit ethernet? I know it doesn't matter to most people but there are many people who have spent money upgrading and running cable to be at 2.5 or even 10gb networks... I just can't imagine less than 2.5gb "fast" pc such as a gaming computer anymore.

Seems like an older motherboard inside of this or else it would be a solid deal.

Most cables can do 2.5Gb with ease. I have 2Gb internet with Comcast and just run a cat5e to my daughters computer which has a 2.5Gb LAN and get 2.2Gb downloads

I'd probably get the Lenovo one also on the front page vs this one, despite this having higher performance parts. Because at the end of the day, you'd be getting a Dell. I don't enjoy my thought process, but Dell taught me as much.

I think on the Lenovos you don't have to throw out the case, psu and motherboard to upgrade (you can swap each part) but I have not actually opened one to confirm. That alone boosts value for anyone who may want to upgrade parts in the future.

What Coupons and credits you referring too?
I was referencing the 15% CB from the site ending with "ten", which unbeknownst to me had expired the day before this deal was posted. Other than that I had the $120 off AmEx offer on one of my AmEx cards, finally there is the 10% off code for new users at Dell.
