how hard am i getting scammed

I'm too lazy to look up prices but that seems like a bit much. I'm assuming you are using this for gaming? At least tell us what you plan on doing with the thing.

If you are gaming, then the i7 is a bit much. Go for an i5 to save some more cash. The 1060 GPU will run games on 1080 pretty easily if that's the monitor you have. Probably not good for 1440p at 60hz. Definitely not good for any display above that.

>>57559439
yeah sorry i forgot

>$2,050
>1060

>>57559353
Don't get it.

A decent i5 and a 1070 would be a much better combo for gaming, and that isn't a good ssd to have either. For 2k you could build a better and more balanced gaming system, even if you paid for Windows.

>>57559353
Hard. I Don't bother to check the prices, but just by changing the 1060 to 1080 should be more near to the real 2k price tag.

>>57559520
yeah thats why i was a bit sceptical
>>57559529
windows is a must (for vidya)
>>57559532
yeah i figured

i like that this pc is really small which is why im willing to pay for it, also i dont have autism so cable management and actually building the pc is not fun for me (have done it before, rather pay $200 for some company to do it for me)

>>57559574
Then don't ask if your wasting money if you just said you don't care about wasting money

Get a 1070

>>57559353
I have an almost identical setup, except i didn't go overkill on the CPU, which cost me £1,000 in total.
Even though I paid in GDP, the price of electronics is cheaper in the US, meaning that despite the 1:1.3 exchange rate, you would pay ~$1,000 USD

>$250 1060
>$50 SSD
>$50 HDD
>$100 motherboard
>$300 CPU
>$100 case
You tell me

>>57559353
If you want to pay for the bespoke case then it's not awful. Otherwise it's a really bad deal, even with an AiO cooler for the CPU you could have the same system for $500 less or so. And if you're not intent on OCing the non-K 6700 is substantially cheaper without a huge performance hit. You could also get more memory and a similar SSD with approximately equal performance and throw some more cash at a better HDD.

>>57560452
Let's not forget the $30 of ram and Windows 10
After that's added in it's still about 105% scam

>>57559353
Massive scam. Here let me fix this for you. If you don't want to build it yourself, find a local PC shop to build it for you, it'll run you $75~$100.

http://pcpartpicker.com/list/QLRfhq

Changes to save some dollarydoos? Downgrade to a GTX 1070 if you're only running 1080p. Same for CPU, drop down to an i5 if you don't plan to multi-task.

>>57560577
>Downgrade to a GTX 1070

it would be an upgrade.

>>57560661
He's talking in context to the link he posted. Unless you're salty about the 1080 for some reason.

>>57559353

I'm pretty sure for $2000 USD you could get all that but with a fucking Titan XP instead

>>57559353
At least it looks cool

>>57560780
But if you built it yourself you could spend $1100 on a case that looks cooler

>>57559353
you should be getting at least a 1070 and 16 gigs of ram for that price. hell you could probably fit a 1tb ssd on there for 2 grand if you'd build it yourself like a reasonable human being

>>57560452
Not saying op isn't getting ripped off, but please let me know when you can get a 480gb SSD for $50 and a 2TB HDD for the same. $50 is more like a 250gb ssd or 1tb hdd

>2000
>gaming PC
>1060

I actually feel bad for people new to pc gaming who get tricked by shit like this

Never, ever, ever, ever buy a prebuilt

Never.

Never.

Of course unless money is not an issue to you, and you like lining the pockets of these Jews.

>>57560910
OCZ has SSDs for that cheap, and a 2TB HDD isn't too far off in price
The point is it's 105% scam

>>57560953
At least that has a 1060, you go to any place like best buy and their expensive "gaming pcs" are all just marketed due to having an i7 which the stupid public sees as the best, since 7>5 right? Then they advertise having 16 or 32gb RAM, a huge HDD, then stick a shit GPU in there since most people don't notice

>>57559353
>SSD Digital Storm

I love how prebuilds never specify PSU or hard drive or ram brands, you know the put the shittiest thing available in there,

I'm not saying its even close to a good deal just adding to the parts list and if you top end all the prices its bout 1.8k in full on retail priced parts

CPU: 6700k $328.99
GPU GTX 1060 6gb $240
Motherboard: fuck knows other than z170 mitx so pick a number between £120 - $230 depending on your muh gayming level
Ram: looked like 2x4gb sticks of corsair dominator platinum ddr-2666 $85
PSU: unknown SFX probably a lian-li PE-550 or PE-750 $139.99
Case: is a custom Lian Li PC-O5S and is anywhere between $200 - $285

EK waterblock for the 1060 $113
fittings and a bit of tubing $20
some kind of modular aio watercooling, since there using an EK gpu block its probably an EK Predator with a cutom cpu top so $230 ish

SSD: unknown make 480gb capacity..er anywhere from $100 to $250
2tb 7200rpm hdd $50-$90

windows 10 home/pro retail $119.99/$199.99 (oem $85ish)

Honestly I'm not big on reddit, but going to their r/buildapc subreddit will get you a long way, you'll get the system you want for cheaper and there's plenty of links about building a pc. Trust me, I've never built a pc in my life and just built one with slightly worse specs than the ones you listed for $850, it took maybe 2 hours and was pretty fun

>>57559353

you want to be getting 16gb ram nowadays (2 x 8gb sticks) I had to upgrade mine because battlefield 1 was exceeding the 8 gb

>>57561223

>500-600 dollars for case and meme cooling instead of money spent on a better gpu
>Wasting money on a 6700k instead of allocating it for a better gpu SSD or RAM

Yeah if you copied there shit build you might only save a few hundred buying it seperatly. The problem is the build wastes a ton of money

>>57561256
bullshit, 8gb RAM is fine nowadays, your bad battlefield 1 performance is due to its huge cpu use

>>57561223
GPU isn't watercooled, and your prices are really on the high high end
Realistically this thing could be built for under $1500, and a similar performance build could be made easily for $1000

>>57559353
>$2050
>1060
hurr

durr

>>57561346
So not only is 8Gb not fine, but weak CPUs are also not fine

>>57561370
No? 8Gb is fine but weak cpu's will limit battlefield 1

>$100-250 for a noname 500GB SSD
It sure feels good not living in third world country

>>57559353
I'm running a damn i3 6100 with a 1060 and they're almost perfectly matched in pretty much every game.
DOOM runs 1080p60 on near highest settings.
An i7 with a 1060 is beyond retarded, though if I could do it over I'd probably get one of the faster i3's because the 6100 is on the edge of being overtaxed.

>>57561333
>>57561359
I completely agree, i was just basing it on cost of parts to their sale price.
yeah the prices were a rough medium from a bluebook list if you really wanted each part yeah you could get them loads cheaper
as for the gpu waterblock i was just going from images on their website and yes your right cheeky fuckers want another $281 for the gpu block

>>57561423

this is from pcpartpicker, with comparable parts and an average case.

I try to tell people all the time not to buy prebuilt, but "it just werkz" so what do myself an everyone else in this thread know?

>>57561485

You could build your own with 16gb of ram for less than $1500. i7 is nice but most current games don't even need i5-6600k and games coming out in the next few years will barely push the limits. That said, it's up to you since 6700k is real fucking nice.

shit these goys are paying this much?

>>57559353

A loan to get started and a consumer base. Consumer base would be trouble

I was staring at this thing for a while wondering why the parts are laid out the way they are.

Then I finally realized it has a foot long riser cable for the GPU and the entire back of the machine is a reservoir/air intake.

this is the most ricer/special snowflake build I've seen in a while. this machine probably weighs 30 pounds fully loaded with glass, steel, and cooling fluid. and it probably has very "meh" thermals to go along with that $2000 price tag.

>>57559353

250 euro shoebox with "passive" intake v. $100 sleek HTPC build with smart intake outake design (plus actual fan mounts)

Kickstarter is not a great place to shop for computer components, they're always either overbuilt or underbuilt and definitely overpriced.

Stick to actual manufactures who (usually) test the shit they crap out instead of selling things on Cool factor alone.

>>57574165
>Small scale production
>Overpriced

The price of custom producing something is never cheap.
And, usually custom made products serves a niche, but it is a trend on /g/ to overlook this.
In small scale industrial machine building many items are made like this, and the cost is thereafter.

1. That's a big BIG rip-off.

2. Wait for the new Kraby Patties to release in Jan/Feb.

3. If you don't know how to build PCs, you're better off buying the parts separately then asking a PC store to put it together for you, for a reasonable price.

It's worth it to buy really really cheap PC parts to practice putting together too.

Decoding aniweeb in 8K is hard work for a 6800K.

But as long as your hardware doesn't get into the 90*C area, you are good to go.
And if you are a meemster buying 250€ case, one don't care if they have to replace the hardware after only 1 (one) decade of use; because of some heat deterioration of the hardware.
