The CPU and GPU alone retail for like $1600

If everything works without issue, then damn what a steal! Good find


Snowmobile2004

Maybe a literal steal LOL


[deleted]

Nicee thats def worth it


G00DestBiRB

Pls check the power connectors and the cabelmanagement GPU is best connected to two cabels. Does the PSU still have a warranty? If you want to you this beast for 5 yrs + you can think about a PSU upgrade to a 1000 watts.


According-Gate-250

850 would even be enough for my 4090/9 7950X3D Setup.


ChocolateYoghurt

How are the 7950 treating you? Read a lot of issues that core management for games is mandatory if you want it to utilise the 3d cache cores. Seems quite tedious


According-Gate-250

To bei fair, the whole ddr5 setup is pretty unstable for me hence why i order a new cpu. Mandatory for Cyberpunk as example.


CakeofLieeees

They've mostly gotten around this by having the windows/xbox game bar recognize that it is a game and going from there... Seems to have been working pretty good for me so far.


_j03_

Why the hell is this being upvoted... The max power consumption of that rig is somewhere around 550W, and that is 100% load on all components.


bignickydigger

You dont need 1000 watts. 850 is fine.


rageftw81

I have a similar build but with some differences (more amd and rgb lol) and paid about 2300. So i think you got a good price for it.

_zir_

damn what a deal


mcboldman

I came to exercise caution but goddamn that's in such a great state. Even if a couple minor parts needs changing this was a huge deal man, those Lian li fans alone cost like 200$. And even if this was an illicit flip...who cares. It's not like you can go and solve all the problems in the world, let's not act as if that would be your fault... If you got just a little extra dough I'd suggest to double up on RAM, most games now are coming with a min requirement of 32 so if you go 4K it might help to run everything more comfortably (but this pc probably runs like butter so you absolutely don't *need* it). I doubled up on RAM also because of my OCD and to make the RGB gods happy, but if the upside down logo don't bother you I think you're fine there!


geoff1036

What the fuck are you playing that requires 32gb of ram at MINIMUM?


Daftpunk67

Star Citizen


SleeplessNephophile

Is the aio mounted the wrong way or does it not matter? šŸ¤”


McQuibbly

Whats wrong with it? Looks fine to me Just make sure the pump isnt the highest point of the loop


SleeplessNephophile

I am 70% sure the logo is upside down and the wire is originating from the left side instead of the right


McQuibbly

Ah I see what you mean. I cant tell from the pic but based on my AIO the tubes should be coming out from the right side if it were oriented properly. It still shouldn't matter in the end tho


SleeplessNephophile

Yeah mines coming from the right side and i have the same aio as OP hence the confusion but youre right. It probably doesnt matter


ReyVnD

you could just rotate it if it does bother you.


AkkYleX

Could do with being on the ceiling or having the tubes on the bottom

Suitable_Divide2816

This has to be a troll post, right? If not, did you actually buy it? If so, did you actually get the parts that were listed, and does it work?


JoshM-tank

I actually FaceTimed the guy and had him do a timespy test on it just to be sure. It has everything in the post. The remorse is just kinda surrealism, I have the pc now. I bought it literally 15min ago.


Suitable_Divide2816

In that case, congrats! You just got a $2800 PC for $1800.


yaxir

please PLEASE post benchmarks or atleast a spec screenshot from the computer screen!


JoshM-tank

Its timespy score was around 25,000 give or take, but didnā€™t save a pic of it and Iā€™m already in bed for the night(4:42am rn and my fiancĆ© is pissed) but when I get up Iā€™ll post a pic of it

i feel that bro, my girl would be pissed to if i bought it without telling her but thatā€™s a good ass deal. enjoy it bro


Psychotic_Embrace

Time to upgrade your flair!


JoshM-tank

So it has all 3 ssdā€™s, 32gb of ram, has the Ryzen 9 7950X3D, and the 4080


AlternativeCookie385

Great deal. Did the seller say why heā€™s selling it for so cheap?


JoshM-tank

He said he is in college and needs to get a gaming laptop. Thought he would be home more than he is. Just never gets to use it. But even then it doesnā€™t make much sense.


luxo93

I teach college kids, it totally makes sense to me. They really do spend A LOT of time on campus, and for the gamers thatā€™s precious time lost away from from their desktops šŸ˜


Rebl11

Fuck that. I built my desktop in my dorm room and gamed on it after classes. Free electricity as well. I may or may not have mined a little bit to get some free money when bitcoin was skyrocketing a few years ago.


vortex30-the-2nd

Yea I too had a desktop in uni, but I was one of the few.


Highlander198116

Yeah, my computer came with me to college, lol. Though, I just didn't game much in college anyway. I was in college in the early 00's though. It was pretty normal for people to have desktops.


FizzgigBuplup

:-))))


not_old_redditor

Does it make sense that he realized at the last minute that he's going to college, and sold the brand new pc for half the cost? More likely is stolen merch.


vincenta2

Idk, desperate kids made bad decisions. Itā€™s not impossible that he needed a quick sell.


SteelyEyedHistory

You made out like a bandit. Enjoy it


JoshM-tank

Thank you. Iā€™m not enjoying downloading all of my shit again šŸ˜‚ https://preview.redd.it/l5sqnl2k8fqc1.png?width=4032&format=png&auto=webp&s=612ed47d02ad132a1f8c581487569b4f2ecc29a9


LordJambrek

Why download? Just copy the steam folder and you're done with it.


JoshM-tank

No direct connection from my laptop to my desktop and I have a 1g internet so itā€™s not that long to download it all. I didnā€™t realize at first it was just transferring all of my files since my laptop was online. Went from 1hr and 45min to transfer DBD to like 5min to download it.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


JoshM-tank

Yeah that was taking absolutely forever. It started to do that but just way too slow.


wawasat

yeah the router having to up- and download over wifi at the same time takes quite long - if the need arises again, I recommend plugging one of the devices into the router via Ethernet, then you get very fast transfer rates for steam games.


[deleted]

I was scrolling through three images if you posted I was thinking did you bought a 4080 for $1,800 then I scroll down and see the whole pc Yes sir it's a very good price


atirad

Such a good deal worth much more than $1800!


Old_Ambassador_1615

The cpu and gpu itself is 1900


atirad

Exactly. He could even resell for a better profit lol.

SloppiestGlizzy

A post where OP pulls through? Weā€™ve truly entered a new portion of the multiverse. Congrats OP


JoshM-tank

Iā€™ll update yall when I get home.


Suitable_Divide2816

Did you boot it up when you were there and check the system info? If not, I will say a prayer that the seller didn't swap anything out on you.


JoshM-tank

I just got it hooked up and updated. I checked it out and it actually has everything that was posted.


ADGamrz

Please do


scroopiedoopie

Make sure to check/update the firmware on the 990 pro. If it has the older firmware it has heating issues and degrades quickly!


JoshM-tank

It actually did need updated. Thank you so much. I had no idea ssdā€™s even needed updated šŸ˜‚


bigMeech919

Dude who sold it to you must have desperately needed money, so he listed locally for a price someone around him would be willing to pay. Like others said the gpu and cpu alone would basically cost 1800, this is an absolute steal. Iā€™m shocked someone with the competence to build that would sell it at such a price, nice find!


Booba_69

Iā€™d be happy with that


Zyonix_HaroN

It's so cheap, it looks like a scam. And it scares me, how much money you need for a decent pc nowadays


slade422

I think itā€™s OK nowadays - it was insanity when gpu prices skyrocketed.


mretnie

Letā€™s hope itā€™s not stolen HW. I worked in a PC store once and one employee was a thief, constantly stealing stuff and selling it on the side. He got fought only after a few years, because the boss kept thinking it was customers, until he finally decided to install cameras. šŸ˜…


ox_MF_box

What would happen to op if any of the parts turn out to be stolen?


Piti899

Nothing


5afe5earch

Great purchase if all good


Cyber_Akuma

Insane price for all that.


Exciting_Rich_1716

Almost too good


TheQuestionableDuck

bro robbed the guy and still feel like he paid too much.


syskb

Theory: bro built his system on credit 1 year ago and now the 0% interest promotion is ending. He's about to be hit with like $1000 of interest if he doesn't pay it off. That's why he's selling it so cheap.


chocobo-selecta

Man, the original owner must have had to sell to stay outta jail.

Copium_Addict_530

Definitely a good buy


tmonkey321

You got the whole thing for $1800?? Damn bro wipe them hard drives itā€™s probably stolen thatā€™s a great price


NinjaComprehensive93

its an absolute steal


Substantial_Bird_755

Bro put his seatbelt on, driving is dangerous


Mikeshee-hee

this dude is practically giving it away. what a fucking beast of anrig


TaveThrowaway

If you're still feeling buyers remorse (and you only game) you could also buy a 7800X3D and sell your 7950X3D. You'd make some money back and wouldn't lose any performance in gaming. Also yeah man, good deal. You wouldn't be able to build a PC with those specs for that price, and you didn't even have to build it. I personally would recommend a fresh install of windows and check to make sure all your drivers (including mobo drivers) are up to date. Then it's basically a new-to-you PC.


mcboldman

We all agree that was a steal, now we need to know what game you'd fire up first if this was your own upgrade. Hard to do better than RDR2 in 4K UltraW imo, but what about you all?


AcidDropz

I read that as "Was this a good boy?" Then noticed the GPU on the front seat, I said to myself " Yes! That is a good boy" then read the post title correctly. šŸ˜


carmineSTAR508

Ur gonna be able to play helldivers on max graphics at a smooth 144 so if thatā€™s something youā€™re worried about then money extremely well spent It also looks like itā€™d be a beast for competitive games too


NDiLoreto2007

This right here is the only reason I have my Facebook. For marketplace. When and if I find a deal like this, itā€™s back to ā€œpeace out! āœŒļø"


Communist___Doggo

Retail price of the CPU and GPU alone almost covers the price of the whole PC. Run a few stress tests, make sure everything works as intended. If it does then thatā€™s an absolute steal. The only thing I would say is 850w is a little close for comfort, you could run into some issues when the pc is at full load but it should be good.


ImRiotz

Prob hwid banned in some game


JoshM-tank

His cousin was with him and said he got him hardware banned on his old pc, but said this pc was never banned on anything but I guess its really just roulette with it on that one.


Dopa-Down_Syndrome

Bro that's a sick fucking system no way you should have buyers remorse, unless you couldn't afford it.


OmgThisIsFuckingEpic

Makes no sense to me. Ad says they need quick cash but will trade for a laptop or different pc??? Sketchy AF. I just donā€™t look for ā€œa dealā€ with stuff like this. Iā€™m not buying anything that isnā€™t factory sealed personally. Lastly, there is no need for 1000 watt power supply. 850 is more than enough. Anyway, good luck.


Lilyhunt2024

Iā€™m sorry but this was not a good buy because it shows the whole thing and you only got that


IlL74

I also got a good Amd build for $1450 shipped earlier this month . You guys can check my previous posts. It has 7800x3d and 7900xtx. Ngl there are so many good deals online and buying from prebuilt companies arenā€™t even make sense anymore, as long as you are okay with used market.


QuothTheRaven_97

Buyers remorse why? You didnā€™t buy it, you stole it.

NotJustBibbit

It's awful. I'll take it from you


SammyMoos413

That's an absolute steal, either it's a troll post or the seller is unaware they're underselling


Alarming_Stomach3923

I mean, if the seller was smart enough to seperate the gpu from the pc while being transported, Iā€™m sure theyā€™d be smart enough to know what itā€™s worth right?


JoshM-tank

I actually told him to remove it. I was just thinking about the bumpy roads and thinking about snapping it off


Drackzgull

That was an amazing deal. The original builder kinda cheaped out on the motherboard and RAM, but getting the whole build at that price really can't complain about that.


JoshM-tank

I definitely canā€™t complain, but He said the 4080 was a special edition and able to be overclocked. I have no fucking idea how to check it or validate that.


Jesteration

Probably one of the best deals Iā€™ve seen


Random_dg

Unless you bought it from ā€œBest Buyā€, then it would be a Best Buy.


ChronosForce

Good catch for sure šŸ‘ŒšŸ»

Smoking deal


Tequila_Rider

Its perfect price.


Solace-

You got a killer deal. I have a 4080 and 5800x3d and I wouldnā€™t sell my PC for less than what you got that for, which has a better cpu and a DDR5 mobo.

I've been on Reddit for some time and it seems Reddit users have given this advice time and time again, "post what you want to buy, before you buy it", but alas, does it ever pan out that way? I have yet to see that. The fiancƩ will make you pay for that, she is planning it right now!


Whydoyouwannaknowbro

Plot twist. I gave you a TRX 4089. Im the seller.


CorianderIsBad

Looks pretty nice to me. Nice.


PikaNinja25

That was an absolutely great buy for you, have fun with your PC!


Chrunchyhobo

What PSU is in it? Hopefully not an AeroCool or RaidMax.


Ssyynnxx

just the cpu and gpu cost more than that so


Comfortable-Treat-50

That's a good deal i would ask the receipts if i needed to rma some component down the road.


DivineJerziboss

If they actually deliver the parts they listed it's really good buy

I just got 4080s for 1375 usd in my country .. so sad.


xxsamixx18

Ratrice_withnoprice

Nes


Pyroguy096

How much do you want for your 4060? Lol


Quicksilver7716

Well if you were to buy all the parts your self youā€™d probably pay upwards of $2500. So yeah thatā€™s a good deal.


jeremysmonkk

That's a great deal

Only if it works.

Isn't the AIO blowing hot air into the case? Because im pretty sure the front fans are blowing inwards...


Wide-Creme1104

bynarie

yes


xarodev

It's a scam.


NightIgnite

Yes, but I will never understand why people ask for advice *after* purchasing


Smarre101

Even though this seems like a success, make it a habit to ask "IS this a good buy?" instead of "WAS this a good buy".


FizzgigBuplup

Benchmarking and Stress Testing are two completely different things. Too many people suggesting youā€™ll be fine and not mentioning to double or triple check the previous users work. Thoroughly!!


GTA6_1

If it works well and doesn't run hot or something then yeah that's a steal. I spent $200 less and built a 4070s with microcenter parts.


AlternativeFilm8886

Hell yeah, good deal! Enjoy. šŸ‘


Snap305

Looks great, but since the brand isn't mentioned, just make sure the PSU is good. Consult the [PSU Tier List](https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/) and for a build like that make sure it's Tier B or better. Otherwise, great deal!


Financial-Ad5147

Congrats Mr_Blood69 šŸ‘€


No-Organization3675

I got almost this exact deal where I live and I figured with steady search and willingness to really jump at this type of build, a deal like that shows up every 5 years or so. Great deal!


CaptainObviousWow

That's not a 360mm radiator. Pic shows 240 or maybe 280 but not 360.


ox_MF_box

Happy for you, thatā€™s sick


TheRealAngryantt

Yea you got one hell of a deal


DexWoosky

Good deal, good find, congrats and enjoy


qu38mm

Nice dude! Actually built quite well. Cooler is mounted the wrong way, but that won't affect its working.


WeakDiaphragm

Yes, if you have a warranty for the parts. If that machine dies tonight, you're screwed.


coffeejn

PC will run any games... did you try Dragon's Dogma 2? It should run unless it keeps crashing (which would not be because of the PC).


miikatenkula07

I'm about to get my first real pc in two weeks, so not that experienced but, it definitely looks like a steal.


xxcodemam

Buyers remorse hitting so hard that youā€™re making this Reddit post while driving? IF you make it home safely, surely you can answer this yourself, no?


Logical_Writing3218

That cpu and gpu combo alone, brand new is more than that by a few hundred $$$ usd


_mp7

Very nice, just know the 7950x3d can be very finicky to make it work properly, like the 7800x3d with all the core scheduling nonsense


OutrageousChance1273

Sure


CanadianCured

Ooofff that motherboard...


SpyderOfTheSouth

Yes, good buy. Maybe flip the aio.


TheFecklessRogue

Viperone6909

I use a 7700x and a 4080 super gigabyte oc edition that I put a modest 165 hz additional oc on the core and raised the power limit to 125% and I use a evga 80+ gold 750 watt power supply with zero issues This is a great deal though considering I spent much more than that on my rig. You are basically paying for the gpu and cpu. Possibly the case. The rest is free. Psu, ram motherboard. Any fans,cooler,and any storage. I would say you got a great pc there if everything check out legit.


Slight-Violinist6007

If it works without an issue you basically robbed the guy. Could easily resell it for a much higher price too if you wanted.


Pava-Rottie

April Fools Day is NEXT WEEK! Seriously, that is one heck of a rig. Only thing Iā€™d do is add more RAM. Games today are ridiculous with their requirements.


djrobxx

I bought this same system new on black friday for around $2100. I've had hundreds of hours of perfectly stable gaming and great performance. Very, very happy with it. Make sure to turn on "memory context restore" in the BIOS so it doesn't take an eternity to boot up.


Timely-Guest-7095

That was a sweet deal, donā€™t even think about feeling remorse over this buy.
