You can most likely get this down further with AmEx offer spend $500 for $100 credit and PayPal's "Pay in 4" $250 credit.

i have amex 100 off 500 so maybe i can bring it down even further by splitting the payments into 3. so basically 300 less with tax it is around 1400. personally i still dont think it is worth it, maybe because i'm too poor for this

PayPal has limited time offer for 20% cashback up to $250 if you use their BNPL (Buy Now, Pay Later). I believe I found it under the "Rewards" section within the PayPal app. You would think it was under "Offers" but it wasn't.

Just a heads up on this if you want more RAM (you will), you need to replace the single stick of 16gb with either a 32, 48 or 64gb.

It's over, but there was also I believe a $1400 max purchase limit, every desktop I looked at was over the limit

Can you use a 10% off coupon for this instead of the edu discount?
