Not too bad! Although be careful. They make it that cheap for a reason

Yea and the mother boards are dog shit!

Looks like an aboslute steal, the hardware is like 2k, but watch out for power/heat/inatability (on the 14th gen processors) but I think you
could resell that well!

That cooler is absolutely nit sufficient for a 14900.
I’m not sure if a Thermalright Phantom Spirit for 40 bucks will do the job, otherwise you need anither 120-150$ for a 360 AIO cooler
edit: Arctic liquid coolee 360 is still 90 bucks. best AIO

It’s a prebuilt… it’s always too good to be true.

with an MSI GPU, you’re lucky if it lasts 5 years

14900 with this small air cooler??

Yesssss

Very very very BAD deal for a defective, exploding cpu
Champppppp
Replace cpu coolers with something way beefier, AIO or peerless assassin
Jealous of USA deals, here in EU, the gpu is 650€ and cpu 450€, only those two components cost as much as whole pc….

Here’s your model number. Aegis R2 B14NUE9-683US
It does not overheat nor does it crash. I’ve added another 2tb ssd and that’s it so far.
I’ve been using it for about 6 months and paid $1699 when it came out. No issues.
It does what it does and plays everything current just fine.

I see no heatsinks on the motherboard VRMs, and a single tower cooler is kinda no bueno on the i7 and i9 CPUs,

Thoughts? Well I just beat red dead 2 last night and I couldn’t sleep. I kept dreaming about the game. It hooked me more than any other game has, even more than bg3. Such a phenomenal game.
That is a deal, Costco takes almost anything back so I’d get it, take it home and game on and see what happens.

For about $1200 you could piece together a 12700K/32GB/2TB system with a 4070 with Newegg’s current deals, the 12700k is marginally slower than a 14900, but when the 12700k paired with a decent AIO or dual tower air cooler and on a motherboard with good VRMs vs that 14900k with an insufficient single tower cooler and a board with insufficient VRM cooling they probably perform closer than expected. Looks like if you get a Montech Sky GX Two and a Zotac 4070 in one order for $564.99, then you can order the 12700k, a 2TB Nextorage Gen.4 drive, The MSI Z790-S Pro Wifi, A Crucial 32GB DDR5 kit (CP2K16G60C36U5B), and a Corsair RM750X for $553.97 in another order. So around $1100 without a cooler, then you can go get the air cooler or upto 360 AIO of your choice with the remaining $100 and you’ll have a system with much better quality components. You have to order the stuff in two seperate carts because Newegg’s combo system acts weird and won’t let you use the $80 off promo code on the 12700K once you add too many combo’d items to the cart.

I don’t know shit about computers but I do know * means Costco is trying to get rid of this stock ASAP
knowledgebass
Good deal, IMHO, especially if you then swap out the stock cooler for an AIO. This will run most games really well.

double check the PSU (and consider to replace it in case)
Also, I suppose you know what’s happening with recent Intel processors, right?

ehhh. If you’re able to actually do upgrades on it (there’s some brands that make PC’s but they’re cheaply proprietary af… dell, hp etc) go for it. Other wise… nah. But also I’d do a substantial amount of research on it.

Off topic but i was unable to see anything other than a weid ass laptop.

That’s a really good deal but make sure the power supply is atleast bronze and watch for cooling issues, might want to upgrade fans.
