Thoughts on this one boys? My brother has been holding out for a good prebuilt deal

Priced at $1199.99 down from $1649.99


Edit: Sale price stock is sold out now

Is this prebuilt worth its price? iBUYPOWER Pro Gaming PC Computer Desktop Intel i7-9700k 8-Core 3.6 GHz, Geforce RTX 2070 8GB, 16GB DDR4, 1TB HDD, 240GB SSD, Z370, Liquid Cooling, WiFi Ready, Windows 10, VR Ready (Trace 9230, Black)

This pc is same price but better do to overclockable cpu and a board that supports it

if you can stretch 50 bucks this would be better

I would read through this

https://www.pugetsystems.com/recommended/Recommended-Systems-for-Adobe-Lightroom-Classic-CC-141/Hardware-Recommendations

Seems the best option is to prioritize CPU --- something like an i7 8700 or 9700K would be best

for RAM, you can probably get by with 16gb but 32gb might be necessary if your photos are massive (site says ~700+mb)

for the gpu you can probably get by with something mid-tier, a gtx 1660 ti or rtx 2060, maybe up to an rtx 2070

here are some example systems that I think would excel

The Amazon search page for all that is RTX is being deflated by a third party. I don't like third party sellers, but is this likely a scam to seem like a Thanksgiving deal?

Upon further inspection, he's also listing prebuilt PCs

Happy Thanksgiving (:

Hey Fwast, thanks a lot for your reply! I will def. look into the hardwareswap option (not sure if it's reliable or not). Another option could also be eBay. Not sure if you would be able to help me with this but the 2 desktops i am looking into are:

​

1)https://www.amazon.com/iBUYPOWER-Computer-Desktop-i7-9700k-9230/dp/B07J5RPC32

​

2) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07J1W2NHB/ref=sspa_dk_hqp_detail_aax_0?psc=1

​

Do you have any opinions about those 2?

Yup! Ended up going with this build:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07J5RPC32/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and this monitor:

https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-27-gaming-monitor-s2719dgf/apd/210-arcj/monitors-monitor-accessories

This actually was $300.00 flat on the Dell website a few days ago but I just checked and it's $300.00 at Best Buy still. I was able to price match at Frys. Pretty damn good deal.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07J5RPC32/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07J5RPC32/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Please forgive my noobishness here, but to my very untrained eye, it seems like this pre-built Prime Day deal has basically the same or better parts for a bit cheaper? I mean the 1 TB SSD sounds like an upgrade, but that's not exactly the most important part of the rig, right? Please tell me if I'm wrong here, it doesn't seem like this can be the case.

In this vein, though, thoughts on this PC?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07J5RPC32/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It seems like it's underpriced compared to PCPartPicker. Price might be a glitch.

https://www.amazon.com/iBUYPOWER-Computer-Desktop-i7-9700k-9230/dp/B07J5RPC32 this is my computer although i got it from costco, and they dont seem to have it anymore. I was able to control the lights on the cooler and in the system just fine from the bios and the polychrome software until i updated the boards bios a while ago. Now when i open the poly chrome software, it says "Access violation at address 0055E5A8 in module 'AsrPolychromeRGB.exe'.Read of adress FFFFFFEC" and wont open. Ive tried different version of the software, but nothing works.

The first one is better value for the price (your saving around $250).

The second one is right around the price you'd pay to build it yourself and has better specs (i9 9900k and more SSD space).

Pick your poison.

I'd suggest this instead (sorry apparently it sold out):

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07J5RPC32/ref=as_li_ss_tl?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-4&pf_rd_r=8B2GJW1ASV6R21ZZE7JY&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=06e82be3-68aa-4d3a-9d5e-cf37d12730f4&pf_rd_i=15201447011&linkCode=sl1&tag=vergeprimeday19-20&linkId=154de7812b37c61c2faeb62bd379ced1&language=en_US

It's a 9700k with liquid cooling, and 2070 for $1200.

EDIT: Sorry looks like it sold out sometime. I'd suggest aiming for the cheapest 9700k + 16Gb ram + GTX 2070 or better you can get. For that much money you should probably be trying to get a 2080 or 2070 super.


As per this video https://youtu.be/ikBYHYsdhhE?t=1015 9700k is currently the best gaming ONLY value/dollar.

I have been interested in building a computer for a while now, but wasn't qute sure how worth it it was and am usually a pretty busy person. Today I came accross this deal on amazon: (Ibuypowerpcdeal), and as such am kinda looking for some sort of litmus test. Would building my own PC be cheaper, more expensive, comparable to this If i wanted the same or comparable specs? Would the quality be the same? Etc. Any advice or help would be most appreciated!
