Wanted to buy my first gaming pc since I am free for a few months now, is these specs worth the price?
I have no idea about the hardware prices, so a suggestion will be great.

7500$ for that. This pc is worth at most 3300$.
This shop is scamming you. Run away!!!!!
Case and point, ahem https://www.newegg.com/abs-ta14900kf4090-2-tempest-aqua/p/N82E16883360488
What country are you buying this from? Markets are different. Doesn’t explain 3300$ to 7500$ jump though.
People will tell you here you’re getting ripped off but if you’re in Dubai and that’s what everybody’s quoting then that’s probably just how much parts costs over there. You can individually buy each part and get it assembled but then you have to worry about if each part works correctly, if money isn’t a worry go to the shop and have them take on all the worry, if not I’m sure people here can point you in the right direction on where’s best to get parts from that deliver to Dubai.
Run away from that shop, you said you are in UAE, did you perhaps get this from a shop in Al Ain Centre ?
If you are looking to build a PC I know the UAE market pretty decently and can help you with parts or prices.
You can get a good high end PC (RTX 4090) for 15k ish AED or 4K USD here
Adding on to what others have said, if you want a OLED display. Look into the new 32in 4K models. 49in ultrawide is still great but 4K is a different beast and cheaper too
Absolutely haram!
I added all these items to a cart on newegg and it came out to $6900 before tax and without assembly. so it’s not entirely unreasonable. however, as others have stated, you can save like 3k by using lower end parts. the MB alone is like $550 and you could save like $300 on that. GPU would be like $400 cheaper if you got black instead of white.
I’m so confused about these replies. I went through amazon and added up the parts and it adds up to just over 7000$ USD, before tax.
I see multiple people saying this is worth 3000$ and that’s just not true. The shop may have upsold him to higher end parts, but he is more or less getting what he’s paying for. Are people not realizing the monitor itself is about $2,000? Just the monitor and GPU are almost 4,500 after taxes(from my area anyway).
brother for 7500 usd arthur morgan better come out from my screen and ride with me to tahiti
“Window Software”
Hey,
Since you’re in UAE, do check microless website. They do have reasonable pricing on Custom/Pre-Built systems and individual parts if you wanma build it yourself.
It’s not a rip off like people are saying but if you go intel i9 make sure they put intel power limits on the board and see if they can do a retail CPU rather than tray (tray usually only has 1 year warranty and retail has 3)
64gb, 32×2, yet has 4 SKU’s? thats 16×4
I would suggest you go to pcpartpicker put all that stuff in it and see what they are charging you to put the PC together if you think that is a fair amount it is a good deal if you think they are charging too much for their time go somewhere else.
Yeah that’s about what high end PCs cost.
Are you sure you want a 49” monitor bruh
What are people talking about? There is 3 pictures of full END GAME gear. From PC to peripherals. I think there is too much people that dont understand how expensive PC parts are in places like EU or UAE or wherever. Not everyone lives in America where you pay 30% less then what we pay. I think the price is correct and the build is great. Go ahead and buy that with oil money and enjoy, reddit is not a place where people are gonna be real.
49″ OLED prob half the cost
If you don’t know that this is over priced. You don’t need a 4090 gaming set up ..
That monitor is $2,200 on Samsung’s website.
https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/monitors/gaming/49–odyssey-g95na-gaming-dqhd-led-monitor-ls49ag952nnxza/
That is a $2000 monitor. Do you want a $2000 monitor?
I can do it for $7250.
Does the RGB perform Lasik?
$7500 US?
The price is reasonable for what you’re getting which is top of the line stuff. It’s overkill for most people. There’s a lot of room to save money there if you don’t want to pay that price. What’s your goal with this PC and what’s your budget?
Why not check GCC gamers?
Their prices are way more reasonable
u in dubai? i bought my pc from al ain center, not sure if u even went there but my parts were generally cheaper ngl i got one of the best pcs for 15k aed which would usually cost a couple thousand more elsewhere. if ur wondering ab the shop its called “dakat computer” or something in al ain center
Try ordering yourself and having a company build it, or use GearUpMe. A 7800X3D / 4090 Suprim Liquid X build was quoted by them at approx. AED15,195.60, or $4,137, and this was when prices had risen recently. Though this was just the PC, no peripherals.
Honestly, I’d just order them yourself off of Amazon – cheaper.
He is making about 600 to 1000 bucks profit
The components are all good and high end but he is charging a MASSIVEE premium
People are saying you’re getting scammed but the peripherals you chose are fucking expensive
You might have all the money in the world, but why waste it on a max-specced PC from the get-go. You’ll have plenty of fun with a midrange build and still have amazing graphics on literally every game to come out in the last five years. If it turns out that you enjoy PC gaming as much as the rest of us with a budget build, then it’s fine to upgrade and get the nice stuff because you’ll actually appreciate the difference in quality!
If you were buying a bow as a new archer, I wouldn’t sell you a $2500 compound; I’ll suggest a simple $200 recurve to help you get into things. If you end up shooting every day because you love it so much, then yeah, get a better bow! By all means! You’ll actually appreciate the difference and enjoy the purchase more now that you have experienced the base-level tools of the hobby
If you want the best of the best, no expense spared, yes, this is worth the price, literally. It is how much the parts (including the monitor, which is a large percentage of the price) actually costs, probably with a little margin for labor costs if they are putting it together for you. I found and put all of this into a cart on Amazon and it came to $7,092.49 USD. The monitor was actually less than MSRP by almost $500 so I’m inclined to think that given Amazon prices are not usually at MSRP for parts (though not heavily discounted either), this is actually less than all the parts at MSRP. I imagine if they get the parts from Amazon or with a better discount, they have a margin for labor and a bit of profit (it is a business after all).
So, despite what people are saying, you get what you pay for. You’re only really getting ripped off if you did not intend to get the best of the best and wanted something with a more reasonable price and they ended up giving you the most expensive computer they could build.
Edit: Noticed they included “Windows Software” which is another ~$160 because they’re probably going to buy Windows 11 Pro.
Edit 2: I’m also not sure how much it costs to import all these parts, if they have to do that. That could also add more. The price seems correct, possibly with a discount, all things considered.
This is a bunch of expensive bullshit you don’t need but they’re not charging you too much for it tbh. Looks like at least mid 6k to me in parts
It’s always fun to go all out on your first PC, then after a couple of years you realize it was a waste and you can have virtually the same gaming experience on much less expensive hardware.
Ship from newegg bro.
As easy as that.
The hardware here is like 4-5k before tax
y not show they prices
Most definitely not you could get the same thing for several thousand dollars cheaper
This includes a 50” QLED monitor/tv and a headset. Do you need those two items?
I get the 4090 but do you again need an i9 if this gaming? An Amd system with an x3d chip will work out cheaper.
Also, why 5600mhz ram at 64GB? If you’re going all out, get 6500-7000 mhz ram.. not that you need it, but if you’re spending the money already then why not?
I am confused why everyone calls the Qled monitor an Oled monitor.
Let’s back that monitor and headset out. If you’re still ok with it, use the money and buy faster ram. Might as well. 128GB too. Fuck it.
You got scammed
For that money, I’d expect at a 14900k instead of last gen 13900k (Yes, I know they’re basically the same, but still), a samsung 990 Pro instead of the older 980 Pro, and also RAM better than that basic bitch 5600MHz stuff.
To clarify, there’s nothing *wrong* with that spec list as such. It’s a powerful machine.
The price tag sucks though.
Pretty sure that’s a gamers plaza invoice, try microless.
Fuck Al Ain center fixed prices shops, markups like it’s signed by the CEO
