There is no cooler in the list and the 9700K doesn't come with a cooler by default.

But the videocard is kind of lower price, causing this pricing.

 

I assume if you're not gonna buy this, you're also not looking for critique on the parts?

Is this a random retailer you found online or is it a trusted one, like a chain, or one that has a physical store?

Just now, Kanna said:

PCpartpicker takes price from many trusted retailers and puts them all in a single place allowing you choose the lowest price, it also shows you extras like shipping costs, wattage of the system so you can choose an appropriate PSU and helps you with compatibility so you don't end up with a motherboard that doesn't match the CPU, it also helps with headroom in a case.

PCPartPicker compares different prices from retailers in your area and on the internet, and takes shipping and taxes into account (tax rates have to be set up). It also makes sure everything is compatible and checks for any potential errors or problems it has.

As you can see a system specced, basically exactly the same, with the exception for the ram, since it isn't available in the US, without the cooler, comes at 1207.38$. Still about 200$ lower than the one you showed.

That's how Europe works. Usually the markup is even higher

Except the UK for some reason where the same spec, with a different, similar PSU comes down at only 60$ higher which isn't a huge let down. Of course that changes when you look at new apple products for example.

Could show different prices

There wasn’t any price diffrence in my country the site already had the cheapest parts (I’m aware that the GPU wouldn’t really fit in such a speced out system I’m not buying this stuff just having fun)

Which one of of the scandic countries?

 

Simce they dont play well with PCP, i can whip something tomorrow through PMs. 

 

You can save some money on board, CPU, PSU and SSD.

 

Usecase for this build? Because as far as im familiar with NOK currency price is kinda what id expect it to be at. 

 

Edit: i see you arent buying it. Pricing seems normal, no great deal as far as i can tell.

I’m in sweden but I maybe thought I saw a deal because that is 100 times better than this prebuilt I got as a present and it was cheaper than the prebuilt to (No need for a list or anything looks like you realized that :D)

Prebuilds usually have a decent markup, usually for warranty, service or build time. 

 

Not that odd that you can whip something together for a decent bit cheaper.

Yeah I’m currently waiting for zen to come out so the prices drop I’m upgrading my prebuilt new PSU mobo case cpu, buying a new one isn’t really financially smart

I only know Komplett from helping someone buy stuff, but that's almost exactly the same as their price. The motherboard is actually 400 K less on that site too than Komplett.

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.
