Question Did I get a decent deal on this prebuilt?

[nonewsgoodnews]

I just bought this system for $750:

It hasn't been delivered yet but I haven't seen any cheaper systems anywhere else (even if I bought the parts at a nearby micro center). Am I right and thinking this was a good deal?

My last system that I built for myself was a i7 4790k and a gtx 1080. I had to retire that system but the GPU lives on in my wife's computer that she plays the sims on. I will probably take the 3060ti in the new system and put it in her computer later. the 1080 is getting a bit to slow for some of the games she wants (planet coaster 2)

Link works for me.

It is..."OK"...couple of generation old stuff, nothing spectacular.

Link works for me.

Strange, I am getting a redirect to a site called share a sale telling me the item isn't available. I was able to 'inspect' and find the actual link.



I don't feel like it is an out of this world price, but when you consider other factors such as warranty, support, even the OTC price of OS it isn't bad either.

Thanks for the info. I thought it was a decent deal.
The last system I built was an intel 11th gen system for my wife, I switched over the Mac mini once m1 came out but after getting a steam deck I missed having a gaming pc. I will probably wait a few months and upgrade the graphics card. What would be a good pick for that system? I have two MSI 1440p monitors.

I found the system on NZXT's site, it looks fine for the money.

PC came today. Works great and cable management looks good. PC had all name brand parts. Gigabyte mobo psu, and gpu, wd ssd.

One pleasant surprise is that it had 2 sticks of 16 gb ram instead of 16 total. Only downside is that it’s rgb and I see no way to turn it off. (Team group delta)

Well, I'm a little bit bummed. I didn't notice right away but the pc has an issue shutting down.
When I press shut down in windows the screen goes black like normal but the CPU fan, case fans, PSU Fans and RGB on the ram stay on. I tried updating the bios, putting the default settings in the bios, and even reinstalled a clean copy of windows. Nothing helped. I reached out to NZXT to see what they say. I'll keep you guys updated if you're interested in how their support fixes the issue.
