I'm sorry, but you're mistaken. They aren't "fixing and revitalizing" these are just Alienware HTPCs running Windows 8.

CPU: AMD 5800X

GPU: Gigabyte Aorus 3070 Ti

SSD: WD SN850X 4TB x2

I mean like so are Xbone and PS4

No, they aren't. PC's are something that can be upgraded, and can do millions of different things, instead of just having sucky performance for a ridiculous price.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

At this stage, I'd actually buy the ZOTAC 760 over this solely because I know what I'm getting into in the case of the ZOTAC. Reviews/spec needed.
