[US-Newegg] Actually a Good prebuilt $799

[Mohenjo]

This is one of the best prebuilts I have ever seen. Only 799, I put the same PC together and it ran me 1020 dollars. I think this is great for those people wanting to get into pc gaming and are a hassle to convince to build.

[Speedyv]

I'm hoping it's not the build in your sig.

 

I see the link now...

It's not bad, the reviews might be due to plain inexperience. 

[MegaDave91]

Gaudy looking case. 

 

You can also do better for $800.

Not that amazing, though still cheaper than custom.

 

Including OS?

[JeffreyEagan]

What kind of rear IO is that?

[TheSLSAMG]

Including OS?

Oh shit, forgot it.

 

Yeah, this thing is actually pretty good for the money. I'd ditch the PSU though, doesn't look reliable.

[The Crazed Child]

It's marked down from $1199, not that special

Lol just noticed that.

im gonna assume its from thermal take since its on the same line as the case and its actually not to bad

It's marked down from $1199, not that special

Thats why its a "hot deal"

[Speedyv]

I fucked up again.

 

I really need to stop coming on here late at night.

 

Plus the OS it isn't terrible.

It's not, but apparently the High Power unit is made by an OEM named Sirtec. They seem to be okay at PSUs.

Still, that explains why you can't build one for the same price

I mean i guess even for 1200 its not the WORST prebuilt ive seen i mean theres a prebuilt i saw recently for 800 with a low end i5 and a 250 so yea it could be worse,

Case is shit, CPU & GPU are unbalanced. (i5 and 290x or 970 would be much better)

 

Sure looks custom watercooled to me in the first pic. (Obviously just a single CPU AIO cooler used, and the GPU is air cooled)

 

Though with that deal it looks pretty decent. ($799.99)

Thats what i thought as well

In my opinion i like the look of the case and yes its true that it is unbalanced but its easier to upgrade GPU more than cpu and honestly the frames (at 1080p) aint gon be too bad

Yes, but there isn't much point in going for an i7 in a gaming build as it will only offer a slight benefit in 1-2 games, other than that its just as good as an i5.

[Yoinkerman]

Yeah it doesn't look too bad.  Funky case, but that's ok

[Mohenjo]

yea but an i7 in a 800 dollar PC is nothing to scoff at. 

[Briggsy]

ibuypower use cheap parts, and if I were a betting man I would wager they throw some refurbished crap in as well. My brother bought one of their prebuilt PC's on a newegg flash sale, and in a year and a half the only parts left from the original PC that are still working are the cpu, motherboard, and Ram. luckily I'm an upgrade junky and have spare parts coming out the wazoo, or that PC would be a large brick.

 

you get what you pay for.

It'll cost about $1000 to build yourself.

[Wilson_H]

You do all realise that ibp probably use a complete reference amd card, not from any good brands, also might be a bad motherboard with a z97 chipset chucked in there. Don't quote me on this, i havent fully researched this, but ibp dont generally have very good low end builds.
