Why would you ever build your own computer. I am looking at buying this gaming rig on amazon, but when I plugged the parts into PC Parts Picker, The parts value is over $3k if I built it myself. I save $1k buying it from someone else.

>>59813160
they are lying to you
>>
>>59813160
This is why you're retarded. You spent 30 minutes at most researching this shit.

What specs do you actually need? Why are you even looking at 2-3 year old hardware? Do you even know what the current generation of hardware is?

Do some fucking research
>>
>>59813218
he didnt spend jack shit researching cus it's a fucking shitty bait
>>
>>59813187
>>59813218
>>59813231

Not sure how you think this is bait or i didn't do research. I get that the company obviously gets a wholesale discount on pc parts, but compared to what other people pay to build their god pc, it reasonably priced. Pc part prices fluxuate as well. I have an r9 390x in my current and i bought it at $340, ive seen thw price go up to $500 in the last few months
>>
>>59813606
That's because the R9-390x isn't produced anymore.

They're two generations newer. It doesn't cost $500 because of the demand, it costs that much because of lack of demand.
>>
>>59813606
>hey look at me im comparing old outdated hardware that's in low supply
that's why, dipshit
>>
>>59813606
This is the lack of research I mentioned.

You're acting like a 390x is somehow relevant in 2017
>>

Funny, I bought a mint used one for $160 on craigslist >>59807769
>>59813775
>You're acting like a 390x is somehow relevant in 2017

It may be a hungry oven but it's still a lil faster than a 480.
>>
>>59813874
Stop jerking yourself off you dumb faggot.

OP is talking about buying new when Vega is weeks from release and the 10xx series from Nvidia has been out for months.

You'd be shitfuck stupid to consider a 390x for a new build, especially in the price range mentioned in the OP
>>
>>59813775
Its completely relevant. It pumps fallout 4 out at 60fps solid at 1080p
>>
>>59814019
That's not the point retard. it has no place in a brand new build in
>current year
>>
>>59814052
If you look at the actual desktop I want to buy, it has a gtx titan x. Are you going to tell me that isnt reevant in 2017 either?
>>
>>59814019
>fallout4
>good for benchmarking

>>59814081
im not that guy but yes it's fucking retarded. either get a 1080ti or wait for the new titan.
>>
>>59814081
Considering the 1080ti just came out and the BRAND new titan was JUST announced...? Yea it's fucking retarded.
>>
>>59813901
Straight to the penis every time Chad, kiss me a little once in a while.
>>59814019
I get solid 60fps 2560x1600 with shadows and lighting on high
RE7 2560x1600 max: 113fps with vsync off

Haven't played much else, can't really get into games anymore
>>
>>59813160
Because 99% of the time it's cheaper and is quite trivial to do. Besides, the case I wanted doesn't come as a prebuilt.
>>
>people cant admit op found a good deal
>>
>>59814278
Im on my second case now. A half xb evo. Had a lian li before that

More importantly, look at the seller's note to "contact me before buy" at some fucking Russian burner email address. It's a scam.

being a business doesn't automatically make one "legit".
Titan X is only 20% faster than a fucking GTX 980. And a 1080ti is 80% faster than the Titan X.

>>59814399
kek. nice catch.

Costs less is better, that was hard

Nope. But still, the OP deal is a scam or some kind of bait and switch.

yeah only one seller and its a scammer

this is a common scam on amazon now
>>
>>59814511
Increase the cost by $100 for the i7 and it's better in pretty much every way.
>>
>>59814511
>$700 graphics card
Found the real scam
>>
>>59814639
not as big as OP's
>>
>>59814639
The real scam is the new Titan which is 10-20% faster than the GTX 1080ti, but costs $1200.
>>
>>59814667
Have to agree. More than $400 for a single card is a joke
>>
>>59814667
>>59814686
getting "the fastest" always is and leads to reduced price/perf

Really cuz at least half of the replies are titan this, titan that.
The rest either call OP a retard or complain about the "old gen" hardware.

So yes, this is a bait thread, because it proves to anyone who skims thru it that the only people on /g/ are nvidiafags who talk about buying the very next gen as soon as it comes out so they can be price raped when the item drops exponentially after a year being out.

Remind me how im the one who is a tard
>>
>>59815264
ok let me put it in simple terms since you seem to be mentally retarded.

read:
>>59814169
>>59814110

and the reason everyone only talks about nvidia is because AMD doesnt have anything that even comes close (yet), retard.
