What if my/yours custom built Gaming PC was prebuilt.. How much would it cost?

[CyanOG]

I have been looking at some Pre-Built gaming pcs out in the market and the value is terrible on every one of them so this got me thinking how much would my own PC cost if it was a pre built system and you guys could try and come up a price for your own. Link to mine https://pcpartpicker.com/user/CyanOG/saved/j4stt6

[Tro]

5 million dollars 

[KPZ211997]

I'd say around 1300$ if comes with custom case

[Jogostar]

several millions.

because I touched it...with my penis.

[Sauron]

yours would be 1200$ or more, mine would be in the 2000$ range.

[Gr8White_Bear]

$2000 because of branding.

$1600 for the computer, $400 more just for the brand name.

[CyanOG]

several millions.

because I touched it...with my penis.

[Real_PhillBert]

I would guess around $2k as it sits now. Probably $3k when I add an 880 and another Evo.

[AlwaysFSX]

Easily, easily.

 

 

$50.

$1600 pc but it has a R9 270.. 24gb of ram is overkill its a better pc overall but mine is better for gaming all for just $750+taxes and peripherals .. so glad i built

[babbaj]

probably $700

[Trik'Stari]

Mine would probably be in the 1500 range, since the parts all together cost about 1100.

[CowsGoRoar]

My Rig + Monitor, Keyboard, Accessories: $2000 (Note that USD is slightly more than CAD when converted)

 

ASUS ROG Pre-built Desktop: Same price with twice the RAM. ()

 

CyberPowerPC: $2000 USD

 

DigitalStorm: $2300 USD

 

HP: $1850 USD (some things are not the same, smaller and crappier monitor, crappier keyboard and crap mouse, so I guess that compensates.)

 

Alienware: $2400 USD

[Cokeman]

Prebuilt like $900

Even though I haven't built it yet, my future build: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/wcreek/saved/mQM48d

I think after three years of nice care if built February 2015 and sold March 2018 I think I could ask for about $800 to $989. 

If it was an addition to Asus's Essentio line the MicroATX board would be upgraded to a standard ATX same PSU, CPU, GPU, RAM, HDD... and it would most likely have a basic Asus keyboard and mouse. So I'd say Asus might charge $1250 to $1300 as a similar Intel Asus Essentio was like $999 at best buy.

My suggestion is get a better motherboard like the one im using in my build or a 990

[handymanshandle]

Meh the case I chose doesn't support ATX boards. 

[KemoKa]

As a normal prebuilt computer: $1700
As an Alienware: $3000

 

:3

[pizzadave2]

The PCParkPicker for my PC is $2766.35. So if it were a prebuilt I'd probably say like $3500? Maybe more? I dunno.

[xox]

[Sonefiler]

$2500

[Owade73]

I built mine for about $1500 so probably $2000. $5000 if Apple sold it.

[alby800]

TOO DAMN MUCH

[TheKDub]

Well considering it will cost around $800 for me to get all the parts, I'd guess pre-built it would cost $1200+

[Clyne]

around 1150 to 1200 for the desktop, since my parts are worth around 850
