They almost always cost way to much, generally its only the Customer service and warranty they help with from friends. Other then that it just seems never worth it if components are available.
I have to agree. No Origin PC is worth the markup they charge at any tier level.
Customization, having something that truly wows is often the selling point for customers. (R)etailers generally don't put nearly as much emphasis on aesthetics.
But the cable management!
The honesty from your reviews are appreciated. I build PCs so I usually build the prebuild online to see what type of markup the company is doing based off of msrp. Knowing they buy in bulk changes everything. Great vid man!
Tbh I still don't think this beats building your own. I did my first pc build over the weekend, and it was so much fun, and it's something that you can be proud to say that you built yourself.
Oh yeah, there's definitely a fun factor that pre-builts avoid. That said, there's clearly a market for them and that's who I was targeting with this video :-)
@@GregSalazar that is true.
Not everyone can or even wants to build their own system. There needs to be an option for the people who want a PC but don't want the hassle.
@@GregSalazar also, a question, how well would a 5600x, 3070 and 16gb of 3600 CL16 work for entry level streaming?
@@volatilegaming5852 more than enough for streaming
The build is incredible and I love Corsair. However you getting products that were not as advertised is a massive issue
I'm just curious, what part do you find incredible about this build? The wire management? With the right case, wire management is very easy. I spent about an hour wire managing my Lian Li 011 XL with hardline water cooling and I think it looks even better than this. The $1000 your paying is way too much for something you could do with an hour or two and just some patience.
@@GSP-76 the components are solid and quality for a pre build company. My first PC was an iBuyPower and it looked and ran like shit. I know all about cable management as well as my newest build was about 2500 and I used a Corsair 5000D airflow case which was an absolute dream to build in.
You should love products not brands, every band makes garbage.
@@GSP-76 To be able to do custom loops, you need knowledge on the topic, not only patience. Not everyone can just do a custom loop like you. Some special tools are needed too...
But that aside, I have to agree - the prebuild is too expensive.
@@inabearsuit2425 The 5000D is a great case for wide management. With the right case, you could make any system look like it's a dream machine. I just don't see the value in paying $1000 extra for a neat build like this Origin PC.
It certainly looks great and clean, and will perform top notch, but as other comments mention, for the price I would rather build my own. On a side note, the cable management is pristine. Kudos to Origin on that.
I have seen a lot of bad Origin experiences, the look and feel of The site and also the rigs that are sponsored(free pc's that are sent out lke this one) always look so good, In reality, they are put together poorly for most customers, they cut corners and as you said it is WAY overpriced, I spent $6400 on one and it had TONS of problems, BAD cable management and even made a video that doesn't even show everything I found later on as I made it in the heat of the moment. The replacement I built was cheaper and MUCH better components.
The point comments like this are missing is that not everyone is comfortable building their own, and those people need options, too. In that case, this is great for them.
I love the content! Thanks to you Greg, I have now tried to upgrade my pc into a nice proud feeling gaming pc. I have been using a 7 year old HP desktop with the bare bones and constantly get those sad GPU unrecoverable crashes. When I looked on UA-cam to try and fix the issue, I stumbled upon your S1E1 Fix or Flop series and wanted to build my own unit. Thanks for all you do!
Thanks for such an honest review, love your sense of ethics & integrity. Even though they gave you a loaded out computer, you reviewed it honestly and could not in the end recommend it for its price and makeup, especially the warranty which was pretty much a joke. One year for over $4,000? Ridiculous it should be at least 3 years for that price. Also I find it absolutely infuriating from luxury PC assemblers to have cases with poor front airflow that you need 9 to 10 fans to keep everything cool. That kind of bad decision making is beyond me. Thanks for another great and informative video and an honest review. Could not recommend it either, but would sure use it if I won it, after drilling holes in the front for better airflow.
I think because this is a high-end build, that also feeds into the price--Origin's reputation is part of what the customer is paying for...and I also really liked that you took a moment to explain that the video card costs having once been much higher likely fed into the end price to the customer.
wow that cable management makes me more excited than It should. My cable management is "The side panel goes on without a bulge or shoving the panel on" but not on any level close to that lol
I couldn't believe it when I saw it. I'm also hoping this is the norm for builds this expensive from them and not just something they did because they knew it'd be featured on the channel.
I'd pay someone to cable manage my build (with very similar parts to this) because I'm too lazy. It looks like a rat's nest back there!
@@GregSalazar generally watching other reviewers over the years having systems from Origin either for review or whatever they always seem to be very good and clean with cable management. I mean they gotta have something above other people to justify them being significantly more expensive for the specs compared to other prebuilts/boutique system builders
@@GregSalazar whats hour rate to build like this with that kind cable management only?
I think that's the first time I've ever seen purely cable management and said "woah" to myself out loud, they went god mode when they were doing that holy moly. Now I just feel lazy
That 25% mark goes towards company logistical costs, payroll, shareholders, profits, hence building yourself is much cheaper, but buying this gives you peace of mind & hassle free computing
Bought a PC from Build Redux and could not be happier with it, only had two (minor) issues. One is the RGB was hooked up to like a third party controller so you can use it via a remote, but not hooked up for direct use with your Mobo as an example. Same thing with the CPU cooler, Outside of those two very very small issues. I got the PC for MSRP cost when GPU's were stupid expensive months back. Build quality is great, customer support with my purchase was great, cable management is fantastic as well. Everything was all around great! Another plus was shipping time, it took like 1 week or so from purchase for it to arrive.
so a 1000 bucks extra for labor, custom sleeving, assembly and cable management. honestly i would rather have this PC than a vacation.
I have some sweet GR:AW 2 maps to play on that. Thanks for the opportunity to grab such a great PC.
That cable management is beautiful.
I love the cable management in this thing. It really impressive. Great video and good job origin. Hope to see you guys build some more impressive computers really big fan of the Coursair Cases.
SO MUCH POWER!!! I LOVE THE BUILD!!!
Greg the more of your videos I watch the more the decor on your walls tells me your taste in music pretty epic. Ever thought of doing musoc reactions or anything like that? I would love to know more about the music you're into!
Totally started geeking when I saw that BMTH vinyl on the wall
I'd definitely rather build my own for that price. Although, I do see the appeal, especially when origin is now owned by corsair. For the price, however, you could probably build one with hard-line watercooling.
That's what I was thinking...GPUs are available now and this is just using an AIO cooler. Paying that price is highway robbery...and it doesn't even have braided cables.
I know I could.
for the price i would build two systems in an phanteks eclipse p6000x with an custom loop for two rtx 3060ti and two ryzen 5600X. so yep that build is a bust on your wallet
This is for the "first time unknowledgeable PC builder prebuild buyers" and not for the experience builder. Why would the average individual purchase a water loop PC and doesn't know how to maintain it?
@@spankbuda7466 I mean you can disregard wealthy people all you want, but we exist, and even though I build, my friends don't and they would totally bite down on this deal.
Sometimes I'd go to one of these pre-build sites and make a computer with everything I want, and I'd take a deep breath and close the browser. It's not a reasonable price to pay for less airflow, less storage or only one year of parts warranty. I hope all their builds look at clean and managed as this, but I would never buy this for this price, especially for the reasons previously stated.
Kudos to you, Greg for not just shilling for a product, and giving your thoughts to us straight. This is one of the many reasons I watch your vids.
More recently than this video, Origin was sending out computers that were not even tuned, like the fan curve was ramping up to 100% when the CPU was only at 40°C. A lot of people that buy pre-built gaming computers do it so it's ready out of the box with no additional need for tweaking (except maybe RGB or other random personalization). I'm not sure if Corsair/Origin ever changed in that aspect...but spending 4, 5 or even 6k on a PC to be ready to go and then it's not, is quite sickening.
definitely would build my own and have since 2007.
That’s a solid vacation….I just paid for a round ticket to the phillipines at $2900. Mabe a vacation 3 years ago lol. I bought a maxed out neuron 2 years ago when the 3090 dropped. $6g before taxes. I’m a contractor working in kuwait. They shipped it all the way over here. 6000 miles multiple stops, im sure dropped…..but, it arrived without a scratch. Wonderful shipping. THEN I shipped it back to the US. Still perfect on the inside. (Large gashes on the outside crate.) This thing is a beast. In my opinion for my experience, it was awesome. Great customer service, runs freaking beautifully. Would highly recommend…..If you have the money.
I thought pre build companies lock in whatever prices for whatever components they're buying even before they go into the market. Meaning that they probably got those GPU for a lot cheaper than msrp and especially for the premium they're selling it for.
Hey Greg I've been watching the channel for a while and being from the carribbean PC parts aren't the cheapest...winning this will mean the world to me as I will be able to start my dream of starting a UA-cam channel. My old PC which consisted of a i57400 and no GPU died on me unexpectedly and it has affected my ability to do my school work..I'm a huge fan and I'll be happy for anyone who wins this PC. Keep up the good work brother Im In full support of what your doing here. God bless
You would think that they could throw in some sleeved cable extensions with that kind of price.
Since its already blinged out with 10 of the most expensive rgb fans.
love that side panel custom design
Oh my god! that cable management JUST WOW! 😍😍😍
So refreshing to see a pre-built of such high quality.
Very honest review of a gorgeous build
biggest thing about this site that no one brings up,they do a credit system thats really good, i could NEVER afford a high end pc but with origin right now you can walk away with a 3080 and an i7 for under 2k and make payments under 100 a month. its the same price as ALL pc stores
if not better
The bottom line on the warranty is after the free shipping window closes, it would literally only make sense if it were the CPU or GPU that failed. Anything else and you might as well diagnose and fix it yourself or take it to a local shop and get a much faster turnaround without giving UPS or FedEx a second chance to yeet your system.
2:13 the only aspect in which they know what they are doing is by going through big channels like yours and making sure they send a solid build, so they can fool others into buying them. I made a video of my bad pc build, I Ignored all the other bad Origin experiences on youtube as well, for much cheaper I built a kick-ass pc, and if you watch my video you won't even see all the things I found, It was a spur of the moment video and I just kept finding issues after I made the video, it was so bad... I paid $6400 and got ripped, returned it, and built my own. Also, many of the Origin Pc's that are built are purchased by people who just don't know, for the price it should be pristine, shame on Corsair.
I just picked up a 3080ti FTW3 for $1199. I can't imagine spending another $3,300 for the other parts in this build.... LOL!
6950Xt is about $1099
Looks like a very clean build with quality parts. Not everybody is going to be able to make such a PC and sometimes you get what you pay for. For example, give me and a michelin star'd chef each the same cut of beef and I can guarentee his steak is going to be worth more than mine.
For the price, you could upgrade to a 3090 and 12900KS, or a 3090 ti (and maybe still 12900ks on top of that if you get a decent deal) by building it yourself.
I remember when a top-tier custom built PC would cost as much as that 3080ti....inflation be damned. Great video as always Greg thanks :)
I specced out my same Corsair vengeance build on Origin and it's $700 more expensive. I did some snooping and estimated Corsair was charging about $300 over retail, and since they make most of the parts in the PC (the case, PSU, cooler, RAM, SSD), they get their normal retail markup. That actually seems fair with free shipping, support, and assembly which seems like a decent quality. Origin's pricing seems like a bit of an issue.
There is the assumption that either you buy a pre-built or you have to build it yourself. Another option is just to buy all the parts and pay a computer store to assemble it for you for a mere $70-$150.
I think you misunderstood the 45 day free shipping thing. I'm pretty it means that you can get replacement parts shipped to you for free within that window. Outside of 45 days and within a year you'd have to pay for shipping for replacement parts.
Yeah, I read the label but not the fine print. You're exactly right. Thanks for pointing this out.
While a comment i made on another video may have been misunderstood, but was critical, i totally agree with you on this one! I am a big advocate on building your own PC, not just for the money savings or customization and choice of parts, but the feeling of ownership is much higher. I have bought or built a few for my son over the years but as an adult he wanted to build his own from scratch with my oversight. Not only did he do a stellar job, but the way he cares for it is impressive. He wont even eat at his desk now! I saw some cable management issues but that is a nice computer. The reality is like you said, Origin is stuck with components they paid a lot more for and probably will end up eating the loss. Corsair just reported a substantial loss for the 2nd quarter of 2022 and I suspect it is related to these types of issues. I am also a Corsair/MSI fanboy so I can see why they acquired Origin, and I expect changes are coming. Good video Greg!
Shipping fees are generally higher to Alaska or Hawaii, as compared to the "lower 48". NVidia "Frontier Edition" video cards, such as the 3080 Ti card shown in the video, were supposedly only available thru Best Buy.
Just finished my build. I was slowly buying the parts for it over the span of a year. Started with a i7 7700k with a 1080ti, 16gb of ddr4 ram, and 2tb of ssd storage and a two fan corsair liquid cooler with a 550 watt power supply in a ibuypower case.
Now I got a i9 12900k with a 3080ti with 64gb of corsair vengeance ddr4 ram a 5tb m.2 a 2tb SSD and a 1 TB SSD and a triple fan corsair liquid cooler with a 850 watt platinum power supply and a corsair 5000D case
Evolution of power
You should do one of these for AVA direct as well. Making these for more stores would be very useful for those planning on getting a PC from resellers and custom PC shops.
Origin has consistently been the most expensive pre built pc company by a wide margin. As shown by LTT and their respective videos on prebuilt companies (like iBuyPower and Cyberpower),however their customer service is on another level, now would I pay an extra $1000-$1500 for great customer service. Probably not, but thats just me- I know quite a few people who have done business with origin and their attention to detail is unmatched in the industry. Not sponsored, I myself am in the boat of build it yourself, just so much more rewarding.
Few years back I bought an Origin Neuron myself thinking it would save me the hassle of building and troubleshooting...how wrong I was. It came with a doa power supply, fan issues, and RAM instability. I had to mail the system back to them after going through their remote troubleshooting process and be without a system for over a week.
Even then they didn't diagnose the memory issue I did that myself, apps and games randomly crashing out of the box - spent two weeks fixing it myself. With all that effort I might as well have saved $2000+ and built it myself.
Someone with less patience and less forgiving would have just said f**k it and returned it for a refund I guess.
Was a Threadripper 2950X and 2080 Ti setup totaling over $6000 at the time. I even paid for the 3 year full extra warranty
If you think that’s bad you should hear my experience with iBUYPOWER. Total cluster fxck! I’ve sent it in for repairs and had to wait 3-4 weeks to get it back.
As a first time PC owner I’m glad I was able to buy a PC from the internet and have it shipped to my doorstep within a week. That being said, when it arrived I wasn’t too happy with what I got. Kinda wish I would have bought the parts myself and learned to build. But then again that’s a big risk for some people. So I guess I’m just gonna use this prebuilt as a way to learn and customize. Overall I’m happy with my prebuilt!
Unless I am Dell and can crank out tons of computers, I would probably be charging 15-20%+ for prebuilts. As a smaller company you aren’t going to be doing enough volume to be able to operate at lower margins.
And if all of them come cable managed like that one, that’s like $200 to pay an employee to cable manage that over 4-5 hours lol
That's a gorgeous PC. Obviously as enthusiasts we we would recommend that you build your own, but I think this is a great option for someone who is genuinely just not good with technology/electronics at all. Someone who would find their customer service as a feature in and of itself. Another great video though Greg. Keep em coming, and I'll keep watching em! Edit: Oof! That $1000 difference IS a tough pill to swallow. You'd have to be quite well off to not baulk at that amount just for customer service.
But this isn't for the PC builder enthusiasts. This is for those who can't build their own PC and want purchase a custom prebuild. This is no different than a person going to Micro Center and picking out all of their parts in their B.Y.O.P.C dept. to have the Micro Center employee build it for a fee. And also, the Origin PC that was sent to him cost $5,076+ on their website. Which they're still charging over a $1000 for it because if you price everything it comes out to $4,055+. The damn (10) QL fans cost $475 and not including the $310 360mm radiator.
I read a comment (ex pre dell Alienware employee) that the ceo of pre dell Alienware started origin. Others joined as well.
Living in dream land for a bit while I watched this and ate my lunch. I'm very much still in the mindsight of younger you, but it's always great to see what's possible when there are no restrictions. Thanks for the honest review and for showing that cable management 👍
I love origin, best prebuilt company. Bought a PC from them this January and still running perfect!
So it’s been 6 months?
You could save a decent chunk just by going with a 3080 12GB rather than a 3080 Ti alone.
Awesome. I hope they consider New Mexico a state. Everytime I visit other states they think I’m from Mexico. Lol. Thanks for the video. Have a great day Greg
New Mexico is definitely a state. My parents even retired there.
Thanks for all you do!
the margin for that 25 percent could be due to tax I know that in other countries (UK) there is VAT tax that can increase the price by 20%
It makes sense that they paid too much for the GPUs.. but on the other hand, I thought (bigger) OEMs were still able to get them at (or close to) MSRP even during the GPUcolypse? Back then you could buy some prebuilt systems and resell the GPU alone to make most of the money back. Buying in bulk usually means they get a discount on the part cost side too.
It's difficult to get rid of that frugal mindset if you grew up that way. I've had to tell myself a few times when I really splurged.. "You want this.. it costs more than it should but you want this and you deserve it." (That's what I did when I ordered my RTX 3060 TI last week.. lol). This PC is for somebody that wants a really well built impressive looking gaming PC but won't or can't build it themselves, AND they have deep pockets. I mean... who was buying up these cards when they were 2 grand?
That's not it. Do you really think that these SI's are paying consumer pricing for their components? Corsair is taking advantage of the shortage situation and also trying to generate profits from after spending money and buying these companies, hiring a larger staff, paying back their investors, and having a much bigger overhead.
Mr Greg plz make more PCDC videos plz 😁 im very satisfied while im watching your PCDC videos 💜
Instead of that you might as well hire a guy to build the parts in front of you and get gold plated noctua fans from the leftovers
I like the Domiunator Plat RAM... I know this is something odd to say about an RGB memry stick, but they are nice and reasonably subtle.
I purchased a Chronos last year (multi component shortage period). The cable management is indeed impressive. Also, JTC made a compliment regarding Origin's cable management recently (about a month ago "This PC is a work of art").
As for the price premium... Yeah... It's difficult to swallow for anyone who has a passion/ability to build their own PC, and I also feel it's steep. Nonetheless, to be fair, most boutique assemblers -- I don't want to name drop -- have similarly high markups.
As a non-tech guy I don’t mind paying the extra 1k because I’m paying for the service. That money goes towards shop overhead, employees, shipping, etc.
The classic BMTH Sempiternal album Record in the back, subtle
Signed by all the band members! :-D
When I do a PC build, my charges include 10% of the total cost of the parts of the build (minimum $50), plus $20 an hour. If RGB is included, it's 15% total cost of the build. For example, if someone wanted a $1500 machine made of unicorn vomit, I'd get $225 plus another... probably $60ish after everything is said and done (setup, windows install, etc included).
If OriginPC did the same thing, and then tacked on a top tier 3-year warranty for the extra $500 (assuming they used my own build charge criteria of 15%), it'd make a LOT more sense. But only a 1-year warranty? Heck, the warranties of all individual parts listed there are longer than that!
So I really don't know where they're getting the extra $1000 build charge from. I know OriginPC are the original Alienware crew from back in the day. There's that I suppose. :P
I happen to get lucky on a sale and a potential bug with Cyber power. I got a 12700K, 3080, 32gb DDR5 build for like 2012 dollars. I have to this day not been able to replicate that price remotely close.
I just built a Ryzen 7 5700x 3070ti32 gb ram 3fb storage for just over 2000$ and it is an amazing build
I am looking into building a pc but, I can't afford to buy a replacement part if I screw up. Pre-built would probably be a safer bet for me. Might cost a little bit more but, it will work properly. I also don't have friends or family who are good enough to build a pc. So far buying all the parts is about $3,700. Building a pc can be rewarding if you are able to afford a mess up. If I had/knew someone who was able to build my pc without worrying about damaging parts I would easily say I agree with building your own.
nice explanation on the pc and this is my 2nd time on this giveaway GL TO ALL AND I LOVE U GUYS!!1
Love the video’s and the great content. Will say though the giveaway link was super wonky after entering my information more than a few times. Nevertheless keep it up brother!
I think that hard line watercooled is the point that I would ask for a boutique outfit to make such a gaming machine. It's just difficult for an enthusiast who's into this kind of performance PC to not seriously consider DIY. Although I do admit that a pre-assembled PC does mean that you don't have to deal with the annoying cable management from installing all those Corsair fans in the rig.
We can't get Founder's Edition 3080ti in Australia, but 3080ti are still $2k+ here mostly..
you're right, navigating Origin's website isn't intuitive and the prices are premium but I'll happily take a free one.
Great Video!!! Your honesty is on point and greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I don't feel comparing custom prebuilts and DIY builds are a valid comparison for the target audience of these prebuilts. What you don't take into account is the value some people associate with warranty and customer support on a completely integrated system. They aren't targeting people like us that love to build. They are targeting people who have no interest in building, have more money then spare time on their hands. I feel the more valid comparison is other system integrators and the same price point. We all know the markup is going to be astronomical from DIY so I don't feel particularly informed at the end of this review if I were in the market for a high end prebuilt.
i bought a prebuilt because it was cheaper at the time
also prebuilts will always end up like this. you're paying a premium for that company to pay their hr staff, sales staff, c-levels, etc. just build your own, it's lego at this point.
When doing a prebuilt PC review, might I suggest building a similar test system to compare performance. This may realveal software configuration problems (like too much bloat or old drivers) or bad hardware choice (like hot components due to poorly ventilated case).
Honestly, I love your videos.. Learn so much.. Just wish we had people like you in South Africa.. Generally here you pay just to have someone to look at your PC to diagnose any issues.. you kind of make me want to move to Florida haha
That cable management is a site to behold. I'd kill to be that skilled in cable managing 😅😅
my old supervisor is most certainly going to import an Origin PC when he learns about this lol. He's a huge Corsair fanboy and always wanted a 100% Corsair setup. I imagine Corsair have gaming chairs as well, but I think that still leaves a few things... 1. Motherboards. 2. videocards. 3. (gaming) desks.
also you forgot to put the amount of fans thats on the build on the part picker list.... its 3 sets of 3 and one alone.
Shoutout to all of us that have been subscribed to this channel since it was a Science channel.
at this moment here in Denmark a 3080 TI cost around 1300-1400 $...now you know
Awesome you get a sponsor for a video to make content, AND a giveaway to your community. Awesome, would be sick if I won as I plan to stream soon!
I have read about prebuilts being bad value so many thousands of times now, yet the Omens i've purchased in Australia are consistently a full like... 30% cheaper than anything i could put together myself. (Plus the assembly would be a chore, not fun.)
Are HP more expensive elsewhere?
That cable management is impeccable. My gosh.
It still costs too much, but one thing to note is those are QL 120 fans which are $120/3 and there are TEN(10!) fans in the system which is $400 in fans. Just something to note
The price is like wow for the neutron, I mean when pcs go absolete in a few years
I wish I could make $150 per hour putting components together.Side panel is the only custom part.Very nice but out of line pricewise.
I'd leave that right panel off just to show off that cable management 😂
Are you sure about the 1TB storage? The list said 1tb corsair gen4, but there was a samsung sata ssd in between the fan and rgb hubs.
Amazon (US) still has 3080 RTX Ti at around $2000 so that could explain the price of the PC.
MSI version is $1700,
EVGA version 1800,
Nvidia version $1900...
Gigabyte version $1900.....so where's the price drop you're talking about?
Amazon Australia still has these 3080 RXT Ti's heading upwards of mid $2,500's. (even accounting for inflation, currency exchange, sales tax, import tax etc).
Woah that cable management is fire!
I feel the pain! Be happy, be safe
The Corsair 7000D case in my opinion is an awesome case, it is close to the same design as the one in the video, but with way better air flow hence the name 7000D air flow. Origin according to their website a 3080Ti is a $1500 increase over what is recommended on any of their customizations on their prebuilds, OUCH!
Yea IDK.
I built an ALMOST as beastly PC for ~$2800
I got 64GB 3600mhz Corsair RGB ram, RTX 3080ti FE, ROG Strix Crosshair VIII Wifi/Bluetooth mobo, 2x 1tb NVME Samsung 970evos, Ryzen 9 3900x. I don't think prebuilts are worth it (if you know how to system build) Honestly buy a friend that knows computers a 6pack and hang out with them while they build it.... You'll learn something and save money.
I build my friends computers because A.) I love building and dont have the money to high end computers B.) I wan't my friends to save money and have high end shit at a lower price tag...
i bought a prebuilt because at the time graphics cards cost too much to buy induvidually
@@SleepingFumos Yea true... took me 16months of stalking bestbuys around the country, (Colorado, New York, Vermont, Mass, new Hampshire) to finally find my 3080ti for MSRP and a 3060ti for my wife at msrp lol... I was online for every drop... never beat the bots. I was part of many discords and alerts, still never beat the bots..
@@willsohrnberger2441 grats on getting the 3080ti in the end!
@@SleepingFumos Thanks it took a while! The wife loves the upgrade from gtx 970 lol
The parts listed from minute 13:20 without Windows 11 would cost Euro 3620,- here in Europe, which corresponds to about USD 3780,-. However, you still have to assemble the PC yourself.
What a huge rig! Great vid!
Thanks for watching!
Always a great sign when they send you different components than they say they did.
When you know how to build a pc, building one yourself is ALWAYS better than buying a prebuilt
