Is this PC worth 6400$?

[SomeonesDad]

So i was trying to create a build then i tried to compare it with a prebuilt on a similar price point, but somehow, this 6400$ pc just appears on chrome, i decided to take a look on the specs and these are the parts used in the pc:

AMD RYZEN 9 3900X 4.6GHz 12 Core 64MB Cache 
Asrock X570 Taichi
G-Skill TridentZ Royal 32GB DDR4 3600MHz 
Seagate Barracuda 6TB
Samsung Evo 970 1TB M.2 
Thermaltake Core P5 TG 
Asus RTX 2080 Ti 11GB DDR6 STRIX OC 
Thermaltake Toughpower Grand 750W 80+ Gold 
Thermaltake Pacific M360 D5 Hard Tube Watercooling Kit 360MM
Thermaltake ARGB Synce 12cm x 3
EK RTX 2080 Ti Waterblock Vector
Sleeping Mod Cable
Liquid Water Blue/Orange/Red/White 

 

They do say the fact that they use a custom water cooling and the picture that they displayed is more like a 3D model of the pc because i think if you made one just for the photo and no one ended up buying, you are fucked up... but just for curiousity check i want to know is this thing worth it or is it just a big scam where the parts are actually half the price

Not even close. I mean I'm not familiar with custom loop pricing but still that sounds closer to double what it should be rather than the actual legitimate price of the parts.

No gaming PC is worth $6400.

Funny thing is, that price was in the description of the object INSTEAD of the fucking price tagged on the shop for 12800$...

Plus a lot of those parts aren’t great value. 32GB of RAM is overkill for gaming if it’s for that as is the 3900X and that PSU is just stupid 150 for a 750W gold. Because it has RGB you’ll never see?

As the configuration you have mentioned, I don’t think it is worth that much. The pricing is exorbitant and I cannot think of even owning a super computer for this price. That is the level of apprehension I am feeling right now seeing the price of a gaming performance laptop. As mentioned above, the price breakup for such a specification is almost half and even that is not worth the performance you are expecting from it. As far as I am concerned, it is a scam, knowing what the breakup of all those individual parts are worth now! Definitely a no no!

Yea, i definitly thought the same thing the moment i saw it. Our country is one of the worse tech wise. The title of the listing was GAMING PC FOR SULTAN (some sort of arabian king, known for being rich) CUSTOM WATER COOLED

It's kinda obvious from the getgo, they target rich peoples that isn't tech-savvy enough
