That’s not a terrible spec for the price, but the seller looks quite sus and you might end up with poor cooling and low-grade components aside from the CPU and GPU.
>512GB NVMe + 2TB
That likely means they’re giving you a 2TB mechanical HDD, which is completely unacceptable for a computer of this price.

If you look at the options you can see that there are multiple options at the same buying page. So yes, they will be different. To be honest with you I would not get it. It is a DDR4 pc , a beast, but no longer updatable since it s ddr4 and new standard is ddr5. I would build a pc with a 7800x3d and a b650 mobo

Don’t buy pre built pcs on Amazon. It’s honestly cheaper to build always

The point of a prebuilt is the warranty, wouldn’t trust Computer Upgrade King too much with my 2k

Computer Upgrade King seems to be a legitimate business with multiple points of sale and a “trustworthy” seller on Amazon …. I use that with quotations and I’ll get back to why.
Absolutely hilarious given he gives his own company the acronym CUK 😂👌
You can even make you’re own CUK account on his support/service website 🥹🥹🥹
Back to being trustworthy? … trust pilot and yelp have a pretty big slew of negative reviews. Of course always take these with a grain of salt because you rarely see positive reviews from people who got exactly what they payed for, you only see reviews from people who received exceptional service and got more than what they expected, or from people who did not receive what they were expecting …. But on that note – it seems like they may have some quality issues here and there. Bent pins, or broken connectors from installation here and there.
My guess is that you’re more than safe to make a purchase from them and expect to get exactly what you paid for. If you need to deal with his customer service – you might be in for a roller coaster ride 😅

Not worth it. MOBO is obsolete. 2TB mechanical HDD for primary storage is no longer acceptable in 2024. If it came with a 2TB NVME and had DDR5 capability, I would consider it.
I also assume that the cooler, ram and NVME/mechanical HDD will be very low quality.

pfft this sucks ass for 2.1, here’s something much better performance for 100 cheaper
– 7800x3d fastest gaming cpu on the market currently, allows us to go am5 for future upgrades instead of am4 like that pc
– great cooler especially for the price, considered the chad of the market, will cool the 7800x3d fine, it looks very good i can send a picture of what it looks like in my pc but if you want something more “aesthetic” get the ak620
– great mobo it’s normally 200 but on sale for 179 so it’s the best thing u can get for am5 as of today or until deals change
– WAYYYY faster ram compared to their ddr4 3200mhz, this is ddr5 6000mhz at cl30, best thing u really need as a consumer.
– good 2tb gen 4 nvme drive, any sort of hard disk on a pc this good is a CRIME, if u want slightly faster speeds (7000 read instead of 5000) go with the a440 2tb
– they didn’t specify their psu… probably with good reason too. besides 750w is ok but pushing it. i included an A tier 850w psu. you’ll never have to worry with this thing.
– very nice case, roomy, easy to build in, 3 intake fans and one outtake fan preinsralled for only 75$ kinda noice ngl
OVERVIEW: this pc i made is more than a hundred cheaper, and will perform quite a bit better as well while being cheaper due to improvement in processor, ram, storage, and probably even cooler lol they didn’t specify that either so i’m not expecting anything too great
i will answer any questions or criticisms from OP or other commenters so just reply and i’ll answer

Dont buy it always buy parts and built it, if you do not know how to build it get someone that does pay tge person and you will still pay less and still have aomething better
BaconJets
Not terrible for a prebuild, but you can find this price with reputable companies. This company will be increasing their profit margins by using the cheapest parts possible, and you don’t want the issues that will come with that.
RentonZero
Are they saying it’s a 7900 or a 4080 cause that’s a shit deal for the 7900 if they are selling a 4080 for the same price
DannyTannersFlow
Build yourself in a few hours. Don’t risk your cash to these sketchy sellers.

Paying 2k for a pre-built with an AM4 socket doesn’t really seem like a smart move in terms of future proofing.
$1,564 assuming they used the cheapest parts available (which they probably did).
VIRT22
Dogshit.
PurpleFox32
Generally, it’ll be cheaper to DIY than buy prebuilt. One reason is because you don’t have to pay for labor and other stuff that I can’t think of. You can also probably find better deals on those parts than the builder did.

Price isnt terrible but f amazon for something this expensive/important to you.
edwadokun
specs look ok but these prebuilts skimp out on everything else and use generic parts as to brand name parts.
it may be 32gb of ram but who makes it and what’s the speed? that ram could cost $30-$50
what kind of mobo?
It’s a 7900 but that’s just the chip, who’s the card maker?
While it may cost just as much or a bit more to build it, you know exactly what’s in it at the end of the day and you can choose quality parts.
I just did a quick pick of the potential same parts looking w/ the lowest possible prices and it comes out to about $1700, but that’s only because the GPU is pricey @ almost $1k. I would bet it cost these people no more than $1500 to make this rig if that much.

It’s horrible.. especially with am4 you can’t spend this much!
itsdeonlol
You can do better if you build it yourself or find another pre-built company like Origin PC or Falcon Northwest.

Lol at the “>” :))))
Please don’t buy a pre-built from Amazon
You can buy [a 7800x3d](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FH9dJy) for the same money. Or can save $200 if you want [a 5800x3d](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sGXzHG).

Idk, you tell me: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tcHFYN
Build it yourself, you’d get a better CPU and memory, likely a more reliable motherboard and power supply, and more SSD storage.
Very bad given how fun and rewarding building your own PC
Also look at the motherboard and power supply. Prebuilt companies love to toss crap
