this is the highest quality prebuilt with a 5090 for the price i have noticed
Jayztwocents did a review and showed it performed very well, the review was same tower but with a 5080, this listing is with a 5090

yeah, of course 1000 off would be better deal, but I haven't seem this complete type of build from a system integrator for this current price as well.

This is only good if you're desperate for 5090 and willing to wait 2-2.5 weeks (which can be pushed back further).
Breakdown:
CPU - Mobo - RAM - SSD - Case - PSU - Fans - Heatsink
600 + 300 + 100 + 200 + 100 + 250 + 100 + 150 = $1800 (without looking for deals)
You're paying $3200 for the 5090 (MSRP $2000) + Dell support. Not terrible when scalpers are asking over $4k, but not a deal.

I'm not spending my time verifying all of those figures but for something as quality as this case you would definitely be spending over $100.

When is the last time you saw a system integrator offering a platinum 1500w psu standard, this is pretty good build if you need a 5090 and don't want to build it out yourself

Dell using standard-compatible design now. Supposedly, all parts are user replaceable with after-market parts.
