Just picked up my first gaming setup. Got the PC brand new in the box off Marketplace — seller said it was a gift he didn’t need. Paid $1,400 for it (it sells for $1,899 at Costco). I was actually looking at the same one the day before and randomly saw it listed, so I had to jump on it.
I checked all the specs and ran stress tests — everything runs great and the build is solid with no issues.
