Should have at least 64-128 GB RAM and a 4 TB or 8 TB SSD.
What exactly was the purpose of this illogical and unhelpful comment?
Are you remotely aware about the prices of the PC parts nowadays? The video card and CPU in this setup alone costs around $4400.
Last Omen was 64GB and 4TB for $4650 with a 5090 GPU. That's a fact.
I just got the machine just a few days ago as a matter of fact.
When it's your deal - no one say anything about it? If they bring up past deals you'd say "it's dead already"
When it's someone else's deal - you will bring your own old posts back to crap on their deal post --- Using the exact argument you crapped in them before. lol.
Come on man.
Chillax. You take this way too serious.
Yes. 128GB and 8Tb is too much but saying 64GB and 4TB is a fair comment Raccoon made. Thats worth $600-900 depending on where you buy your parts.
5090 is not $4400. Just because someone lists that it doesn't mean its selling for that
https://slickdeals.net/f/19603032 got this literally last week with 64GB and 4TB. Same cpu and same price. This deal is what's available after the ridiculous jacked up $6000+ price discounted. Ok sure, I guess I will get the "that deal is dead". This wasn't even a good deal compared to to the last 2 5090 desktops I got. But I got it cuz it was the "good deal" at the time. No way I would buy this sky tech when I literally got the Omen with $600-900 worth of memory and storage literally 4 days ago.
No one said 5090 is $4400. I said the video card and CPU alone costs around $4400.
As far as the HP deal goes, it's a well-known fact how horrible HP customer care service is, how HP uses proprietary parts in their gaming desktops, etc., and you can find some comments from previous users/buyers on that deal how they would never opt for an HP again. Just because you bought that deal (good for you, nothing wrong with that) does not make it the best deal in the world.
Asking for 128GB RAM and 4TB SSD in a $4700 5090 desktop is thread-crapping and nothing else. No need to defend or justify that. Thanks.

I am aware of the illogically high prices AI companies have caused. I refuse to get ripped off like these folks here who are purchasing anyway. This thing should be 50% cheaper. Patience is a good thing. I'm sure it will come down again.

So many, many reasons to hate the direction A.I. data centers are taking us. Unfortunately the ridiculous Video Card, SSD, and Ram prices are the least of our problems. It's going to be really hard for anyone to put the A.I. genie back in the bottle now, but at the very least immediate guardrails and legal boundaries need to be set before it's too late. It might already be too late. I doubt 99.99% of the worlds population want 5 elites controlling every aspect of our lives because of their Tech.
And as far as this deal goes. It may seem like a crazy price to most, but right now it's not a bad price considering what the individual components are going for. Personally I can't imagine spending this kind of money on a gaming rig, but gamers are gonna game.

But that got downvoted despite having 64GB of RAM (vs 32GB), 4TB SSD (vs 2TB, technically it has 2x2TB) 9900X3D (vs 9800X3D) and a 1200W Platinum PSU (vs 1000W Gold). What am I missing?

OMENs are notorious for terrible heat dissipation. I had one years ago, idle the machine ran at 55C during gaming would reach 85C. I changed the cooler and everything I could and it still ran hot.

I don't do games but my GPU is running 100% for about 2 hours straight and it's a 79C on the CPU readout on the watercooling contact LCD. CPU is 62C(not doing much work though)
750 Watt sustained power which make sense since GPU is around 600 Watt for that 16-pin thing
I got that Omen deal, I think for the extra 32GB and extra 2TB and 1200w PSU. worth the risk and most people may do thes same. HP made me paid $199 I think for the PSU (then minutes the disocats) and 32GB RAM and 2 extra TB of storage I guesstimated $400 (average price for 32GB stick - most are $900+ for a pair) and 2TB --- idk which one but maybe just call it $300.
$700 bucks plus a 1200 PSU is worth it to me
(back to research a riser card so I can stick a 2070 in it. too close to the 5090 Card, was fine with a 5080. )
Depending on the overall combo with the rest of the machine especially CPU I guess.
HP and Lenovo both requires a 1200 Watt PSU - they won't let you check out unless that is in the order.
9800x3d TDP seems to be 120 and GPU is supposed to be capped at 600 w sustained but I did read that it can peak 700+? put another 120 in whatever in the system (no idea the fans, mb, etc it needs).
That seem pretty close a 1000W if you are running it hard. Skytech isn't noob company, I'm sure they ran their numbers.
I have another machine with just 1000 W, it will run 5090 hard just fine cuz I don't stress the CPU at all so power use is low on the CPU side with plenty to spare.
But I won't dare keeping a smaller 2070 it in at the same time (I do it with 5080+2070 though for concurrent access.
I am gonna change end up having it as 5070 TI + 5060 TI (shorter, lower power)--- cuz I don't think dual 5070 ti will fit physically but in theory they are 300 w each combined like a 600w 5090.
Unless someone knows HP and Lenovo just wanted to force us to upgrade to 1200 W.
