Nice PC but damn the premium pricing holy smoke
Closest spec. HP computer I got I think was a was 9800X3D or was it 9850X3D , 64GB,4TB disk for ~$4700

Lenovo May deal was Ultra 9 285K same CPU, 64GB, and 2TB for $4175 or so. This is a lot more $ for Dell for 2TB more and 1500 W PSU instead of 1200 W.

Maybe it's worth the Dell Premium

you can get $5067 if you choose 265K, 32GB ram, and 1TB if you're after 5090. still. that's too expensive.

Would the 10% Student/Military discount stack with a 10% "New User/Customer" discount?
