Deal Details
I'm not sure how good of a deal this is. I am looking to spend some bigger money and get a high-end rig for gaming. What do you all think of this unit? I don't want to spend this much, but really want the 5090 card, and I am not a fan of the current intel line either. I run 3 displays, and one is an ultrawide, so basically it is 4K alone. Thanks!

Where would you go about getting one for that much less? I am willing to build it as well. I used to buy from Newegg, but the reports of scams and return issues make me hesitate.

Thanks!

I just built my gaming comp and virtually all components were from Newegg with zero issues. I didn't use any of their third party vendors unless it was the manufacturer of the piece. I ordered two GPU's (better one came available) and the return was flawlessly easy.

All in all, you're effectively paying $3-4k for the 5090 when you subtract the cost of all the other parts of the system.
