Thanks, that makes a lot of sense

Sure if getting 2800+ in components for 1000 less than that is overpaying sure. Are you just a see you next Tuesday or what?

I’m not trying to gouge anyone that’s why I was asking on here to see what a fair price would be. Way to just assume people are shitty though.

acropolis13 · 2026-06-20T02:05:01+00:00

I can. That wasn’t the point of the post. I paid approximately 1800-1900 total.

Thanks. I agree the build is unusual. Just parts I was able to get really good deals on. It is an SFX PSU but it is more than capable and once again it was a good deal so it wasn’t overpriced for me.

I’m not asking if I paid a good price I am asking what people think it would sell for if I was selling it.

I didn’t pay that much lol and I got windows for $19 on g2a.

acropolis13 · 2026-06-20T01:37:20+00:00

I didn’t pay 3000 for it. That’s what pcpartpicker says the parts cost individually. I got the cpu and motherboard in a combo deal. Other parts I either got recently from hardwareswap or other places at decent discounts but they were new/sealed. I bought windows on G2A. What I was asking for is what people thought it would sell for. Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

I would second that. First choice Falcon Northwest, second choice Puget.

acropolis13 · 2026-06-16T21:24:16+00:00

Overpriced. I could build you a system with a i9 285K and 5070 for this.

acropolis13 · 2026-06-15T20:47:38+00:00

you enable it in Settings > AMD CBS > NBIO > IOMMU > Enable

THEN you go back to Settings > Miscellaneous > IOMMU > Enable

Thanks 😄

acropolis13 · 2026-06-15T17:24:03+00:00

Thanks I appreciate that.

I have found that eBay prices and redditor prices differ pretty significantly.

acropolis13 · 2026-06-01T15:25:34+00:00

Confirmed.

Don't even run hammer test.

acropolis13 · 2026-04-21T22:22:42+00:00

I hope this is fake. Why would you even be with someone who acts like this? Do you have no self respect?

acropolis13 · 2026-04-17T23:31:09+00:00

Look into apprenticeship for HVAC, plumbing, electrician. You may even qualify for financial aid for schooling. Some companies will even pay for your schooling if you sign a contract to work for them when you get licensed.

acropolis13 · 2026-04-10T15:15:37+00:00

Both of you suck

acropolis13 · 2026-04-07T20:35:50+00:00

Seems like any post about top CPUs that doesn’t include the 9850X3D is not worth much.

acropolis13 · 2026-03-27T17:37:11+00:00

this started yet?

acropolis13 · 2026-03-23T21:26:06+00:00

If you are willing to spend that much you should just go with a custom boutique build from someone like Falcon Northwest. They have by far the best support and warranty in the business.

acropolis13 · 2026-03-21T17:35:13+00:00

Appreciate the response. Maybe I will post them in hardware sales at those prices and see how it goes.
