The PC is like $1100 on the spot with tax and no mail in rebate. But darn, this should make everybody who overspent on a custom built pc feel bad about themselves lol

Considering how I spent about $1100 on my build about 5 months ago, yeah, this makes me feel like a fool.

But still. Building your own pc is a treat and if you can afford it, it's well worth it. And I wouldn't expect the 980ti to stay an expensive gpu after pascal comes out. But it's still a killer deal now

I honestly have no idea, but based on the pre-code price (roughly $1600), it's probably a half-decent h97 mobo and some pretty average PSU. If you're worried about the PSU, you can always just replace it.

I just put together a Skylake system with a 980ti and it cost more than the HP. I'm still happy I did it even with this sale in my face. 

 

The HP case is probably pretty lousy. 

The 500w psu probably isn't all that great either.

Don't expect it to be the best quality thing you've ever owned. But the point is, the price to performance is killer. And HP built it so if it stops working its not your fault.

Why pay an extra $30 (after discount/rebate)for a 4790 when you can get a 4690k and overclock it (unless u really care about hyperthreading)

well you could probably oc the 4790 to 4 ghz or even 4.2 with BSCLCK

I just moved to the US, and I was about to build a new system, this deal is like a no brainer. I was about to build an equatable system (only a little better) and it worked out to about $1600. I could buy this, throw out that Power Supply and stick in a nice one and save like $400. I should really wait until black friday/cyber monday and hope that all my components somehow go on sale but this is so very tempting.

 

That extra $400 could go towards a really nice 1440 monitor, and i'm pretty sure this system could handle that!

It wouldn't make me feel like a fool at all.

A.) you're getting a 4790, at a more expensive price than the 4790k.

B.) Unknown PSU in the system

C.) Unknown Mobo in the system

D.) HP doesn't sell it at 1g, they sell it at 1.5g's. It's the slick deals promo that cuts the price down.

E.) ...

F.) Profit to customer builders still?

Actually you can slightly Oc it , if you use the baseclock in the bios.

It's has a locked multiplier , but not a locked baseclock .

Linus overclcoked a xeon using that setting.
