There's a 1080ti on MD for $649. That would mean the rest of the components here ~$1,800? Please define how that is any sort of a deal, other than someone else assembled it for you?

RochambeauxEh, 1080 ti 's differ on quality. The one here is probably more like $750. Also, subtract around $50-100 for the actual building of said build. Not much of a difference on the rest of the components, but if you throw together something around this on Pcpartpicker, its not too far off. Could just be the case, I dunno.

Building a computer is like Legos for adults. The manuals tell you where all the wires go.

What brand is the SSD? Why only 2400 MHz ram and not 3200? They're around the same price. What specific motherboard is it (some have better Vrm's than others) How high does that "button" overclock? Are you capable of doing manual overclocking if you wanted? What specific PSU is it? Just a wattage has no reference to quality. So many unknowns. If it was a 960 evo or pro SSD, seasoning top tier psu, 3200 corsair or gskill ram, manually overclockable, and had a good motherboard with good vrm's then this would actually be a good value, only $50 ish over price of building your own, and good luck finding a case like that if you like the looks of it. Could be great deal, or not so much,. Depending on more specific specifications

lshriverMobo is most likely a custom built one by MSI. SSD is https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16820249086 which can tell by pictures of the case open if you looked around online

lshriverYeah I'd be willing to bet you're gonna be disappointed with the answers to most of those questions. I'd just build my own if I was going to drop that kinda loot.

Well not all and there's no guarantee unless you actually watch someone open and try.
Also I'm not talking about adding a drive I'm talking about bigger upgrades like replacing motherboard and video card. It's just that sometimes these weird looking cases have some things hard to get to or irreplaceable parts.
I'm not speculating either, 1st hand experience. I have a friend who wanted to upgrade his prebuilt (he has one from Lenovo I think) and his PSU is the exact wattage he needs, no room for a more powerful video card or maybe CPU upgrade. Not to mention that his PSU was LITERALLY soldered into the case so it can't even be replaced.
If you build a computer its a guarantee guarantee that you'll be able to upgrade it however you want in the future. Basically no proprietary crap.

BlastguyNailed it. Upgrading means more than just the ram, drives, and GPU... It means moving to a new processor/platform and reusing everything short of the CPU/mobo. Also, the idea of someone who can't/won't build a computer upgrading in this particular case is laughable after you watch the LTT review of it Lol

I'm just saying, this is a great deal for a pre-built. You say that there's a warranty for all the other parts you sourced, and you are right, but they are SEPARATE warranties. With this, no need to deal with going from manufacturer to manufacturer, when you need to use said warranty. Also, MSI is a company. They are probably much better at building, wiring, and/or assembling the computer and its pieces than the average buyer(of this drop). Not everyone has the expertise, patience, skill, or time to set up a rig like this, and even if you have all of those, you won't necessarily be able to build the computer as well. And to that other guy who was talking about being able to upgrade, you can do that here. I don't really see why you would say other wise, but like every other desktop case on the popular market nowadays, this one can be opened. It's not too hard, either, just takes a little bit of work.

Arker_1It's not really that close in price: the build I first posted (foolishly) was super premium with literally the best parts available. For a comparable build (with still premium components) you're looking at savings of about $370.00 (or three 8hr days of work at $15/hr less taxes). Building a computer and selecting the components is NOT hard with little time and patience. Also, if a rookie wants to upgrade this later they will have a rude awakening:
