He saved up some money and we're paying the rest for some personal milestones he's hit. Gaming has been a big part of my life for 40 years and I'm happy to share that interest with him.

Why? This system will actually run fine under 500w? I couldnt make this system use more than that under any situation... 600w gives you plenty of room

Think it's worth bumping up to the 4060ti for $130 more? Comes to $855 with EPP.
Not for $130, if that's the only thing they're swapping out. The MSRP difference between them is $80 tops.

For reference, an extra $250 can get you a 13th Gen i7 and a 4060Ti with some of the other deals that have been posted on here.

Yeah I guess I should have clarified that more. I was saying the 16gb Ti was worth the money, but that that 8gb wasn't really much of a performance upgrade.

Only other thing I see similar is the dell deal that was really popular a few weeks ago. It was $1000 for the i7 and 4060ti. So that would be $150 more just for the upgrade to the i7 with a downgrade in parts quality.

Not worth it for gaming, but for people running generative AI locally, the 4060 ti with 16GB of VRAM is great. AI tends to be very VRAM hungry.

Downgrade in parts quality?

You can't buy a prebuilt from Dell or HP and nitpick on small details like RAM speed or upgradability between the two.

At these prices, it's best to treat prebuilts as appliances. Buy most of what you need out of the gate, because you won't save any money trying to assemble piecemeal later on.

The Dell had an i7 and a 4060Ti, which is really what are going to be the most impactful for the system.

Not bad but ideally you want at least 750 psu with this setup and also 32gb ram if possible that would make this 9/10'worth it. 6/10
I need 128gb ram minimum

They're reference boards; they've never been proprietary outside of an extra power supply connector which they've stopped using (the exception being SFF boards).

Those connectors are available all over Amazon, so it's never really been anything beyond a minor annoyance.

However, the case RGB is probably not universal.

They use micro atx hp branded ones for years and they're garbage.

Their AIOs are garbage. The fans all use proprietary connectors and a proprietary controller. The ram is Kingston stuff but it's custom to HP and has no xmp.

The video cards are HP branded as well, very few/slow updates to vbios if ever.

The power supply wasn't modular and it had, I think, one extra sata power connector.

I parted out a 30L during the pandemic because I wanted the rtx 3090. The only things worth reusing were the cpu, the hard drive (wd black 850) and gpu.

I think I'd roll the dice with a legion pre-built before I ever bought another HP. And that's solely based on the quality of my legion pro laptop.

Generally you want your PSU to be double you max draw, that is where it is most efficient. Plus there are certain cirumstances where your computer can go over the stated max draw specs so having some overhead help eliminate issues. Plus if you want to upgrade down the road you've got plenty of PSU for a more power hungry GPU..

Id say no since its a 20ish% performance gain for 130 more, thats like paying for 50% more for 20% gain.

Mainly meant like the decent name brand ram here with heatsinks vs dell with generic Hynix ram with no heatsinks. The cooler here also seems half decent vs dell that will have a really cheap low profile cooler.
