Question Should I build my own pc or get this one?

[FoxInFlames]

Well, here's the thing, I'm gonna build a pc with an rx 6600 XT paired to an i5 11400F as soon as the RX 6600 XT comes back in stock here, yesterday while skimming through Amazon i found this pc with an R7 + RTX 3060 Ti

https://www.amazon.in/HP-Pavilion-Processor-Graphics-TG01-2005in/dp/B084XP4RHT/ref=asc_df_B09K774BFH/?tag=googleshopmob-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=544724931962&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=7260249095368053873&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1007805&hvtargid=pla-1541663686468&psc=1&th=1

This is both faster AND cheaper then the build I'm deciding on, therefore I'm a bit sus about this, will this one last or maybe it has mediocre cooling etc...?

Does not pull up a build. Have u tried dells website. Not sure what your trying to spend but u can get some crazy builds right now.

I don't really like how they look, imo they're weird from that sense, but rn I'm settling for a legion tower 5, a ryzen 7 + 3070, seems perfect

Had a look, their pre built streaming pc has almost similar components (a ryzen 5 5600x instead of the ryzen 7 5800 (inside the lenovo legion tower 5 i'm deciding for)), i could have gone for it but sadly they don't ship to India, it seems ;_;

Seems i'll have to go for the tower 5

For $1300 bucks u can get alot better of a pc from Dell xps line. 12700k with 3060 rtx for $1200

Also found this deal thats a killer deal also. https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/gaming-and-games/alienware-aurora-ryzen-edition-r10-gaming-desktop/spd/alienware-aurora-r10-desktop this setup is also faster for not much more money. $1399 for 5800x with a 3060 rtx

The XPS desktop lineup doesn't ship to India either, save those non-gaming ones which have Intel UHD :/

Guess I'll just take the legion.

As for why I'm taking this setup specifically, I'm aiming for ultra 165Hz gameplay at 1080p in as many AAA as possible, no (or minimal) compromise on quality, and the RTX 3070 seems certainly able for that (i mean, 110fps in Cyberpunk 2077 with DLSS enabled)

And i can't go any higher than this price.

Same, doesn't ship here, looks very promising though.

Well, maybe not exactly 165Hz in all of them, maybe 110-115 fps will be very good too.

I didn't see the listed specs here the first time. I clicked the link and it was a lower end pc. But your right those specs our nice with that 3070.

Ah, i see, it probably opened up a lower variant.
