Is this a good deal?

I've been searching all over craigslist for a nice desktop for Rendering and Gaming.

Here's one but do you think it's a "great" deal?

CPU: i7-4820K (4-cores, unlocked, 3.7 GHz, 4.2 Ghz Turbo)
RAM: 16 GB
Graphics: GTX 680 2GB DDR5
HDD: 1TB (7200 rpm)
PSU: 875W
Optical Drive: 24X CD/DVD ROM
Alienware multimedia keyboard (new)
Alienware mouse (new)
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (with installation DVD)

Still has warranty and says that it's 4 m/o old.

He's asking $900 or $700 w/o the Video Card. Should I take the $700 and buy a better one or $900 would be a deal?


OR
Keep looking for a better deal?

I forgot the desktop is a Alienware R4.

Thanks in advance for your honest opinions

Its a decent deal but it has some WAY overkill parts for a gaming computer. HE is losing about $1000 selling it at $900 and it is actually a good deal.

For serious rendering and encoding and gaming, this is a really good deal for $900.

Also MAKE SURE you can view and receive ALL the original purchase paperwork so you know it is not stolen or he is selling it out from under someone.

Yes, it's a pretty good deal

I would take it with the graphics card. The gtx 680 performs roughly the same as an R9 280X and similar to a gtx 770 and both those cards are over $300

It has the same specs for $1499 on Alienware.com but this has 16GB of Ram and instead of 2 TB this only has 1TB. Which questions me since the minimum option for the HDD is 2TB, I'm guessing it might be refurbished?

You will probably get the warranty as it is usually non-transferable

It is against forum rules to bump threads. DO not do this.
