You know what its allmost like that was my point... you get an ssd and hdd that arent bottom of the barrel (close tho) fans, a case, a psu, a graphics card, ram, a cpu cooler, a motherboard, and none of this ( that im aware of) is prepritairy so your response had nothing to do with answering the question, the question was is this system (and i did say system not a pile of parts you cant do shit with) worth 700$

Edit : with 2 year warranty

Maybe you just didn't get my response out from that. I'm saying the cheaper build is worth the money for parts tho RMA will be a problem when you disassemble it completely, while the more expensive build is just straight up not worth it. The rest of the components are pretty bad tho. The small 92mm cooler is better than stock Intel cooler so do keep it, but the crappy H310 board, god-knows-what-it's-made-of quality PSU's better get dumped out, case with no airflow unless you take off the side panel... Basically you're better off buying those parts you didn't mention at first yourself rather than reuse what it comes with.
