Costco massive ripoff PC

[lobster_zoidberg]

PCs near the door at Costco in Australia, took a look at it because Costco is usually good deals, maybe they had a 8700k and a 1080ti with a 4k monitor or something, but this had to be the biggest rip off I'd ever seen. They were trying to sell a PC with: 

 

2 1080p 60hz monitors (no doubt to pad out the price), 

Forget exactly which one but a 4 series i5 CPU

8gb RAM

And just to top it all off, a god damm GTX 745? What even is this? All I know it it sounds worse than my 750Ti,  

 

They were trying to pedal this crap with a low profile keyboard and a $5 mouse from KMart for an unbelievable $2000 AUD.

 

For a start I could get a two shit monitors larger than the ones they had for $250, And I could buy new parts giving equivalent performance to this junk-heap for under $800

 

Without a doubt the biggest rip off I've ever seen from an actual store.

so it had a generic cpu, some ram and a gpu which MIGHT have been a GTX 735(mobile gpu) or GTX 745(OEM gpu)  that you actually have no idea what it is?

how do we know whether its over priced when even you dont actually know what you were looking at?

sounds like standard fare for these prebuilt companies tbh
