Nvidia's insane price hikes finally forced my hand this time, after 20 years of exclusively Intel/Nvidia builds. I swapped from a 3090RTX to this. The performance of this rig is more than enough for high/ultra quality gaming at 2/3rds to 1/2 of the price of a comparable setup. After using this I don't really see a reason to swap back, you're just paying for the name these days. Clean case in a reasonable size, very good airflow. This is the first rig I've had in years with air cooling and it's quieter than my liquid cooled rig was last time. No bloatware, just a basic Windows install the way I like it. Needed to upgrade drivers, but that was simple. Build quality and cable management was professional, cable sleeves are black as are the zip ties so it all looks very clean. It's all tied up pretty good, so you'll need to clip some zip ties if you have extra components to install that need power. Comes with a pair of SATA cables if you wanna mount some SSDs on the back.


it was in stock and it works


Excellent.


To start, my original budget was $2700 but I decided to spend a bit more just to go ahead and get a 4090 build and call it good for a couple of years. I don't normally do pre-builts, I have decent experience in building myself since high school but, It's been a while since I put my hands on a PC build, and with life getting busy and a new child on the way, I decided a pre-built is a better-fitted option for my time. This pre-built is great. Spec-wise it'll get you going for a long time. I use an LG Ultragear 4k Curved monitor and it runs everything on Ultra like a champ. The MSI Gaming Trio 4090 is a beast of a card, the I9 is all you need for 4k gaming, and the case it comes with is a decent full-sized tower. It runs quiet, and beautifully.
