Deal Details
You need to add a qualified accessory to get 25% off such as this mouse https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp...p4f5aa-aba

With EPP discount, this is probably a decent price to get a 5090 in current market.

Pretty expensive but in this market it's probably buy a 5090, get the rest of the PC for free. If you are in this market it's probably a good deal but are you really deal hunting at 5090 price points?

lol finally. A bit expensive for me though


Last month I got this config for $3650. This is $3900 now. Idk if I wanna get 4 again this time


The following only matters to some.
PSU is not modular and only came with 12v connector. If you swap GPU out for 8pin GPU card, you will be missing that connector. $14


If you swap the motherboard out to a standard case, you'll need a seven dollar and a five dollar connectors for the front panel USB-C, which is missing on the motherboard and you need the power
switch rewire harness.

To adjust for the missing usb-C header on the motherboard if you swap everything to a standard case.
https://www.amazon.com/Alrhso-Ver...B0GSRWG2K6

maintain compat and allow the front-usb-A port to work, usb 2.0 speed though. but I usually have usb-c that are higher bw so I don't care.
https://www.amazon.com/WLGQ-9-Pin...B0G1HGLM9X

splice the power sw connection which is non-standard on the HP motherboards, simple hardness.
https://www.amazon.com/Xelsluthe-...B0GMHRPQJX


Alternative but I don't like it as much cuz this makes front usb-c run at usb 2.0 speed.
https://www.amazon.com/SSSUWP-Mot...B0FDK6PYHJ
-- I don't like this, it makes the front usb-C run at USB-2.0 speed. I rather use the first connector to make the front-usb-c faster and the front usb-A slower with this other adapter.



In case you are worried about the "omg HP has proprietary parts" which is overblown

So FWIW, the memory options on this build are quite bad.

If you switch over to the AMD builds, you can bet better CPU and memory selection.

I was able to spec a 9800x3d, 64gb DDR5 (2x32), 5090, 1 TB ssd for $4599 + $45 xbox controller.

Also specced a 9800x3d, 32gb DDR5 (1x32), 5090, 1 TB ssd for $4123 + $45 xbox controller.

I'd rather pay the extra money for the ram and better CPU personally.

Yes, if I were to get a whole box, I would. In fact I did 9950x3d + 64GB (2 x 32) + 1TB back in June. I added 3 year HP care as well.

My option here is for someone like Elon to get cheaper 5090 card.

I'm good with the Legion tower 5090 deal previously but this looks decent.

Yes, lowest cost to acquire a 5090 is the game. ty ty.

My purchase last month for this same exact machine pre-tax was $3640 when I looked back at my costs.

This is $3900. - whooping $260 increase per machine. yikes.

Other weirdness since this is accessory bundle, only 1 max instead of 2 in a single order. The max was 2 machines per account in the same coupon period. I know. lol.

Another friend on the internet said there were some other CC so I am looking for it. lol.


I only value the PC parts with GPU at $750 so a cost increase of $260 is pretty high to me...

I might still buy some. I'm a degenerate and was waiting for 5090 deals for a while.
