The fact that they don't specify the generation or model of Intel CPU is absolutely horrible. Will you get a CPU that cooks itself in 6 months? Who knows! Give us $1800!

To be fair, intel hasn't had a lot of generational gains from the 10th-14th gen cpus, and the self-destruct feature seems to have been mitigated with bios and microcode updates. Intel is still an objectively bad choice for a gaming computer though. Between the 5700, 7600, 7800, and 9800 X3D chips, there's a fantastic gaming cpu at almost every price point.

These are used though. The CPUs may already have irreversible damage and you have no way of knowing.

The heck......There were 2 that looked decent and are sold out and the rest are pretty terrible.
Crazy they are charging more for ones that start with 3000 series when the cheaper ones came with 4070 super and TI.

Imagine the corporate response "we are disappointed with the lack of the community support for targeting lower income audiences with second hand and potentially faulty components because companies are entitled to your wages"

Seems like real life "loot boxes."

Watch someone score a 5090 Ti.

Thanks for sharing. Seems fine. 650 for a 4060 is a fine starter gaming PC. My son has a gaming laptop with a dedicated card, but nowhere close to this. Fun to gamble here with relatively low investment.

edit: never mind. Costco has a 4060 with twice the RAM and storage, better warranty. $200 more. Will go that route.

Seems to be the newest system of them all and only $50 more. 32GB DDR5 and 14th gen MSI desktop. Also, newer GPU with a Super or better.

FESTIVITY and SNOW sold out. Deal is dead imo.

I focus mainly on rtx4070ti for under $900. Ram can be upgraded later. Between 12th Gen Intel and 14th Gen Intel some might prefer 12th Gen for better stability and reliability in a long run

Don't get me wrong, 3000 series was good. However, for a used product AND gambling with specs, this deal is sucky.

Which of course is sold out. 24 hrs later and anything with a chance of being decent is sold out.

Who cares about the CPU really, not gonna make much of a difference in the range here, specially with games. Other than via user error have never seen a CPU burn out in my life, and I have touched 1000's of them.

Platform and video card are all that really matters.

But yeah, even if you were gonna take a chance anything decent is gone.

Dead.
