So a 1080ti, i7 8700k, 16gb of ram, 1tb hdd, cheapo 120gb ssd?

I would say not.

But you are missing a part of the paper.

Can you just write out each part and the price they are quoting on that?

Here is pretty much the same build as far as i can tell, but i added the overclockable 8700k instead of 8700, and a better watercooler.

That is shockingly bad value for money.

 

For example this build has a far better board, cooler, case, power supply, bigger SSD/HDD and a cpu that you can actually overclock. Not saying go with the build below, just showing you what you can get by building yourself.
