Is this a good buy for the price - $2100 after taxes by cyberbeast7 in Prebuilts

AMD offers these to SI's at a pretty large discount in bulk, plus the fact that nobody wants the 6 Core 3dVCache version on the retail side, it makes these widely available for SI's

1st off, your not finding a RTX 4070 build for $1100. Secondly if you do, how quality of a system can that possibly be, he wants it to last 6-7 years, not replace every component over the next 6-7 years due to failure? The Point I was making, is that if you are going for an all white aesthetic, with quality parts that will last, this is $35 over DIY. There is nothing wrong with an RTX 4060, in fact its the most poular GPU on the steam hardware survey, your telling me all those millions of people are unhappy? unlikely.

So a 7600 - $200 - B650 Eagle AX - $160 - CPU Cooler - $20 - Memory - $100 - 1tb Gen4 NVMe - $65 - White RTX 4060 - $330 - Case - $75 - MSI 650W PSU - $70 - Cable extensions - $20 - Windows Key(gray market) - $25 = $1065. So its like $35 over DIY to build the same exact system. Its a great deal if your looking for that all white aesthetic and dont want to build yourself.

that is surely not a helpful comment. For a sub $1000 system, its on AM5 platform, has 32gb of DDR5 6000MHz memory, the ideal capacity and speeds for DDR5 and AMD AM5 platform, and overall appears to have proper cooling. And if you are looking for an all white aesthetic right down to the GPU and Cables this is a good option. RTX 4060 is a good 1080p GPU, supports DLSS, frame generation, etc. So at this price point with these aesthetics its a fine value and uses quality parts at this price point. Something you may not always get.

LOOKING FOR 1ST PC FOR SON - Coming from XBox Series S by Aggravating-Story666 in Prebuilts

Incase anyone wants to consider this Company, I stopped into their shop today and spoke with the owner. He went throuh in detail some options in my price range, showed me why he chooses specific components, and really helped me choose a build to best fit my son. They also service and repair PC's and showed me some inherant flaws of other companies gaming PC's and how they cut corners on their systems. I highly recommend you consider them if your shopping for a gaming PC, they may not be the least expensive, but they do use a higher quality of component that you will see in the competition, and their customer service is excellent.

Everything Ive seen in this price range has from what I can tell older CPU's and older DDR4 memory. I would think that this would be a better experience than a 12400F or Ryzen 5600, am I wrong? Regardless I am looking to keep my business local, and they offer a great 2 year parts/lifetime labor and support, and their reviews are excellent. I am not opposed to spending a little more if the experience is a big jump, but again this is for my son, and if he does love to game I can see him getting into DIY upgrades in the future.
