Why don't you compare it to pcpartpicker with all the same components (give or take that the build you've linked is used/new)

Please become a member of the Linus Tech Tips forum, keep writing smug remarks & let us love you. Peace out.

It might be, although when I see words "liquid cooled" I think about proper liquid cooling, not AIOs.

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

Nothing wrong with AIOs, just that they can't be expanded upon.

It would seem so but only buy it after you compare the same parts on pcpartpicker that should give you a general idea of if it's worth it

And it's much harder to replace any particular component. But for their price it's okay.

Yeah, custom loops can be really really expensive, but are definitely worth it if you have the money.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

I'd say it's worth it, but if you are planning on buying it for your own personal use, I'd offer some suggestions.

 

First, parts of this build make NO SENSE AT ALL. Basically the storage: Why are there 2 different sized SSD's AND 2 different sized HDD's?

 

If you buy this, take out the Intel SSD (What exactly is an "Intel High Speed SSD"? If I knew what model of SSD it was, I might suggest keeping that one instead (For example if it turns out to be an Intel 730 SSD).

 

Next, take out the 1TB HDD. Keep the 3TB HDD.

 

With the extra SSD and HDD, do whatever you want with them. Put them in another build, sell them, keep them as backup storage, etc. It just makes no sense to have 4 different drives in the PC, all of which are different sizes and types.

For Sale: Meraki Bundle

 

iPhone Xr 128 GB Product Red - HP Spectre x360 13" (i5 - 8 GB RAM - 256 GB SSD) - HP ZBook 15v G5 15" (i7-8850H - 16 GB RAM - 512 GB SSD - NVIDIA Quadro P600)

I would get it, but I don't need a single 780, let alone 2. I would feel bad to have something way over my needs.

muh specs 

Gaming and HTPC (reparations)- ASUS 1080, MSI X99A SLI Plus, 5820k- 4.5GHz @ 1.25v, asetek based 360mm AIO, RM 1000x, 16GB memory, 750D with front USB 2.0 replaced with 3.0  ports, 2 250GB 850 EVOs in Raid 0 (why not, only has games on it), some hard drives

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

Screens- 3  ASUS VN248H-P IPS 1080p screens mounted on a stand, some old tv on the wall above it. 

Stuff- Epicgear defiant (solderless swappable switches), g600, moutned mic and other stuff. 

Laptop docking area- 2 1440p korean monitors mounted, one AHVA matte, one samsung PLS gloss (very annoying, yes). Trashy Razer blackwidow chroma...I mean like the J key doesn't click anymore. I got a model M i use on it to, but its time for a new keyboard. Some edgy Utechsmart mouse similar to g600. Hooked to laptop dock for both of my dell precision laptops. (not only docking area)

Shelf- i7-2600 non-k (has vt-d), 380t, some ASUS sandy itx board, intel quad nic. Currently hosts shared files, setting up as pfsense box in VM. Also acts as spare gaming PC with a 580 or whatever someone brings. Hooked into laptop dock area via usb switch

A lot of red flags come up when reading it:

 

 

 

1 Intel High Speed 600gb SSD

 

 

 

The graphic cards running stock produced a 3DMark benchmark score of 16219 on Firelight

 

It's definitely stolen or was taken to pay off a debt. 

 

Nobody unloads a system like that at that much profit loss.

I'd be cautious when buying anything such as pcs on craigslist, if you can take a friend or two with you, and be sure to see if you can test out the pc before purchasing it.
