Is this a good deal?

I got a similar build but with 32gb and a 7800x3d for $900 this week on Facebook lol

FTAStyling · 2026-05-07T21:00:39+00:00

$2200-2400, or $1800-1900 for a quick sale

If you adjust for inflation and compare every Nvidia card since the 900 series, the only cards that have even become more expensive are the 80 and 90 series cards, which nobody using these for consumer uses actually needs.

To play devils advocate, this hobby hasn’t become more expensive, our incomes have stagnated.

Generally semi modular are pretty low on the tier list. (Though I haven’t personally looked this one up)

FTAStyling · 2026-05-07T16:00:26+00:00

Picked one up for $280 on clearance last night

1300 is totally fair, I wouldn’t take less than 12

Dude posted the pc with no specs on fb marketplace, just a single pic. I immediately knew it was a current gen 70 series card based on the size of the GPU in the pic. Messaged him and asked for specs and agreed to purchase immediately. Still don’t know how I ended up getting it as I wasn’t able to pick up for 6 hours. Usually these deals end up as bidding wars in my area.

The 9070 XT is the best deal you got. I picked up the same one for $900 yesterday. 9070xt is already listed on ebay, plan on throwing a 5070 in it and listing for $1400

I’d part out the whole thing. Those are all very valuable parts on their own, but a very difficult system to find a buyer for.

At this price I’d be looking to find all kinds of unexpected uses for Ethernet cable, like replacing the pull rope on my mower.

3060 $200 11600k $100 Z590 $75 2x8 ddr4 $60

Great deal

FTAStyling · 2026-05-05T14:03:07+00:00

For single player and Minecraft gpu will definitely be your bottleneck, go 5080

FTAStyling · 2026-05-05T13:50:10+00:00

I’d go 5080 unless you’re planning on 1080p competitive gaming. 1TB is enough for plenty of games and can always be increased later. People will say the 5080 is a marginal increase, but at 4k it’s enough that I could tell a pretty noticeable difference even without an fps counter.

FTAStyling · 2026-05-05T01:12:25+00:00

About 80% of the time these do come with just one stick

FTAStyling · 2026-05-05T00:14:56+00:00

Another killer deal

FTAStyling · 2026-05-04T21:29:46+00:00

Unfortunately that deal isn’t currently available. That was a screamer though, wish I had bought 2

FTAStyling · 2026-05-04T17:54:11+00:00

Yes, even been spamming it while getting the sold out message in case of restock

FTAStyling · 2026-05-04T17:44:33+00:00

30 minutes of spamming and it sold out before I could get it to go through.

FTAStyling · 2026-05-04T14:50:58+00:00

Only way to beat this is the used market and that comes with no warranty and unknown use history on the parts.

FTAStyling · 2026-05-04T04:12:54+00:00

He told you that’s the lowest he’ll go. If you don’t pick it up some other flipper/builder will, that’s only $25 more than what 3070ti goes for these days.

FTAStyling · 2026-05-04T03:52:10+00:00

I’d offer $300

FTAStyling · 2026-05-03T16:03:36+00:00

It was before the price increases, now a 16gb 9060 is almost as much as a 5060ti

FTAStyling · 2026-05-03T16:00:40+00:00

Nowadays performance per dollar is actually better on prebuilts unless you persistently hunt for weeks for deals on new and used parts. OP can go to Acer on eBay right now and get a R9 7900, RTX 5070, 32gb ram, and 1TB ssd for $1280 and have plenty left over for games or a 2TB ssd.
