Opinion on this $1,225 PRE-BUILT

Considering they haven't named that power supply it's fishy. Plus why the i7 when you can drop to a i5 and get a r9 390?

it seems you actually pick the parts yourself, scroll down and you can choose the parts

I'd make use of this to change that processor to a i5 and get the r9 390 and a better power supply.

 

Still quite not the best price, but let's be honest very little pre builds get great value, I have seen worse.

im quite literally strapped for time everyday including weekends and can't build one myself, need a prebuilt with 6700k and a 1080p GPU I'll upgrade to 4k when pascal comes out

I'd still avoid spending on a i7 as it doesn't give out much in games (yes even in 4K). The i5 generally is more than enough so I'd get a better graphic card versus a i7 unless you plan to do creative projects on it.

Ugh. It takes like 3-4 hours tops to build a PC, install Windows & drivers/apps <__<

Unless you're doing a custom loop, which that pre-built doesn't have.

i self edjewmahkated myself on GPU cpu bottlenecks and I understand if you have a Titan x and a 4790 you won't get a whole lot if benefits from 6700k upgrade. However dx12 + 6700k does make a difference especially in witcher 3 , 27fps better over 4790 just off the top of my head.

I don't have unlimited money or time ^^ besides that's hardly canon... I'll play it eventually though

that is dx12 making the difference, not the cpu.

Don't doit Kimber. You want the person building your rig to give a poop, not be in a hurry to get it done and go home. Your cable management will be horrible and the parts could have come from a pawn shop for all you know.

Watch a few videos and build it yourself. Know your parts and where they came from.

If anyone asks you never saw me.

Is it an idiotic build that makes 0 sense for the money? YES.

Is it ridiculously overpriced considering the EXACT COMPONENT SET USED? No.
