this. off the top my head it doesn't look too bad considering it comes with an OS as well
>>60603435
Depends on how the rebate can be used. If it's one of those prepaid visas, then yes. Otherwise no.
>>60603565
prepaid visa with 4 month expiry
>>60603585
Go for it. Cheapest I could get it is this:

It's certainly not a bad one. If you were tech savvy you might want to build your own to get a overclockable 7700k, but they're not fantastic overclockers in the first place so the difference wouldn't be huge.
>>60603585
Fuck, I didn't notice it was a 7700 not a 7700k. You save like $20. Which is ok I guess.

yish, won't find a better prebuilt than that.
>>60603435
That is actually a good deal if the rebate is legit.
A GTX 1080 normally costs $600.
>>60603713
Legit OS is nice. Mine are and it's comfy to know you're not botted.
Is this a good deal /g/? The video card is a 750 Ti. Figure I can dump it on CL or Fleabay for $50 or so. Add an SSD and a hot 1070 and it'd be a pretty decent budget rig.
Legit pretty good price. I would still rather pick my own components, even if it meant paying more, but that's a good price and even better if you don't want to build.
>>60603435
I'd say it's a slickdeal. Ay lmao
prebuilt computers are terrible. you probably can get it cheaper if you build it yourself OP
>>60603980
>60603980
you'd have to get a new power supply as well, mobo and psu are the biggest short comings in a prebuilt after gpu. Would be cheaper to just build the same rig.
>>60603980
You'd need a new PSU. Dell Outlet is having a sale right now - 15% off XPS. You can get one with an i7 6700/8GB for $645. With the warranty, keyboard, mouse, wifi, bluetooth, and a PSU that can handle a 1070, I'd go that route.

>used no name 750 Ti
> can dump it on CL or Fleabay for $50
Good luck with that. You might find someone that stupid.
Apart from that, you're getting a "Nvidia GTX50Ti" according to that ad. (you) just added in a "7" for your own convenience.
Might want to take a look at something more like this:
- https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA68F5BJ3521
refurb Dell Precision T3500 Workstation Xeon W3690 Six Core 3.47Ghz 12GB 1TB Dual DVI Win 7 Pro $339 free shipping
You could budget a $200 or $250 GPU and still have a better machine for cheaper. Just keep the GPU that comes with it in a drawer as a backup since it's likely not worth any more than a "Nvidia GTX50Ti."
>>60603648
It can clock to 5.45ghz. A bad bin might get you 4.9.
>>60603435
Honestly, I usually shit all over people asking if so and so pre-built is a good option... then I recommend they go and build their own. But to tell you the truth, this is a pretty sweet damn deal. The case isn't that big of an eye-sore either. I say go for it if you really dislike the idea of building one yourself.

Also forgot to mention to make sure you wipe the drive/reformat, and start from scratch on the software side of things. There's going to be a shitload of bloatware.

You have to activate them by phone but it's my go to.

They're under 500 now on amazon and newegg
>>60603783
IT'S A 8GB

>(you) just added in a "7" for your own convenience.
No, the full listing on the website says it's a 750.

Hadn't seen that Dell before. I thought of skipping the pre-built route and doing a Ryzen build, but that sucker is pretty tempting.
>>60604088
>>60604116
Yeah. Dell tends to under-rate their PSUs a bit, but even the best are still only like 350W.
>>60604663
XPS comes with a 460W. It can be specced with a 1070 from the factory. I have an 8500 running a 7870 without a problem.
>>60604694
Sorry, I should have been more clear. I was referring to the run-of-the-mill OptiPlex but forgot specify.
>>60604528
There were a couple going for 350 this week.
>>60603435
Nah. You can build a better PC.
>>60603435
The RAM is going to be a bottleneck.
I think you can build this for about $1000-$1150. So it's not 2x the cost like they often are.
But you could build a PC with a better SSD and RAM than they use.
It's definitely not a z270 board with faster RAM and stuff. But I don't think the 7700 with 2400mhz RAM is going to bottleneck a 1080 in most cases.
