  • any other stronger PC's that i could use the code for? i have an HP omen PC from 2020 that has similar specs to this, but with a 3080 but i absolutely hate the HP Omen motherboard and having issues with ram now, if i was to buy a new PC i'd like one that is quite a bit stronger maybe with 4080 super or a stronger CPU etc and a bigger case/tower than a Minitower, if not it's fine ill have to build one myself.

    Great deal either way for people looking to get a cheap PC.

      It's harder to get enough volume for this sort of pricing with the higher end models, but based on current availability, we could do something along the lines of this for $4199:
      GPU: PNY RTX 4080 Super
      CPU: Intel i7 14700KF
      CPU Cooler: ThermalRight Aqua Elite 360 AIO
      Motherboard: MSI Pro Z790-S WIFI
      Ram: 32GB(2x16) Patriot Viper Venom DDR5 6000mhz CL30
      Storage: 1TB Lexar NM790 7400MB/s PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD
      PSU: Phanteks AMP 1000W ATX 3.0 80Plus Platinum
      Case: Phanteks XT PRO Ultra Black ATX Case

      IMHO I'd hold out for the 5080 either to get a 4080 cheaper or to be close to the best for a couple of months. It's imminent or overdue depending on who you believe.

      • +1

        true i will probably do that, not too far off from the new cards so that's a good idea

    • +2

      If youre doing an Aus trip or have friends/family there https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/867370 this is a bargain. Claim another 10% back at the airport through TRS as well. (i ended up with a 4080 and 7800x3d build Jan this year for around 3.5k nzd.)

      Had my CPU and GPU stuffed into my carry on backpack, no issues.

      Yep.

    Remember guy's this is associated, theyre here to make profit.

    the build above:
    has a motherboard with incapable vrms which would overheat and not allow the cpu to deliver full performance (only selected to cut costs)
    16gb, not good enough for such a high budget build (selected to cut costs)
    biostar ram, infamous for its unreliability (selected to cut costs)
    and unknown brands just to cut costs like "CoolMoon Glory II" and "AeroCool Viewpoint Mini" (also selected to cut costs)

    what i propose here https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/list/CKfNfy at a little lower than 2k, at similar performance with:
    32gb 3200mhz ram (and a good brand too)
    a lga 1700 cpu (12600kf) which ultimately has a higher upgrade path than am4 (5700x3d)
    A cooler that is reliable
    gen 4 nvme (mp44l)

    you can give these parts to anyone on facebook marketplace who would do pc building services for $50 bucks

    • +1

      Also it doesn't include an operating system. It lets you add Windows 11 Home edition and that adds an extra $200 to the total cost.

    • +8

      Alright, I guess I have to defend this.

      Remember guy's this is associated, theyre here to make profit.

      Without including payment fees, this is already a sub 10% margin, most of which is from us paying sub-retail prices for parts.

      has a motherboard with incapable vrms which would overheat and not allow the cpu to deliver full performance (only selected to cut costs)

      1. 5700X3D is very power efficient, most of the gaming performance benefits are due to the 3D V-Cache as opposed to raw frequency, so it's boost clock is only 4.1Ghz, and it's not overclockable. It's basically impossible for it to overheat.
      2. The motherboard doesn't have a particularly weak vrm, from a brief glance it looks like a 5 or 6 phase board, which is more than enough.

      16gb, not good enough for such a high budget build (selected to cut costs)

      You can select either 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB on the website.

      biostar ram, infamous for its unreliability (selected to cut costs)

      Source? That isn't just 1 random reddit post?

      DDR4 is at a point where basically all RAM is pretty much identical, all the chips used come from the likes of SK Hynix, Samsung, and Micron, and the manufacturer just designs the PCB.

      and unknown brands just to cut costs like "CoolMoon Glory II" and "AeroCool Viewpoint Mini" (also selected to cut costs)

      AeroCool definitely isn't an unknown brand, and for CoolMoon, a CPU cooler is basically just a chunk of metal with a fan strapped to it, brand doesn't make a huge difference, so it's a good place to cut costs as opposed to paying for a name brand cooler which typically has a huge manufacturer markup relative to other PC parts.

      32gb 3200mhz ram (and a good brand too)

      See above comments.

      a lga 1700 cpu (12600kf) which ultimately has a higher upgrade path than am4 (5700x3d)

      The motherboard in the partpicker list is significantly more expensive, and the upgrade path for lga 1700 would be 13 and 14th gen i7s and i9s, both of which are currently facing a bunch of issues, and worse than the 7800X3D for gaming.

      A cooler that is reliable

      We have the failure rate data for these models. We wouldn't use it if it was going to be a significant point of failure, as shipping a pc back to us for repairs then back to the customer is expensive.

      gen 4 nvme (mp44l)

      Our build uses a better gen 4 ssd.

      I think you'll find when we do deals like these, it's cheaper to buy from us than someone on marketplace, as we're paying sub-retail price.

      Yes, we're a business. For a business to work, you have to turn a profit, so we do make money on this. Why is this a deal then? Because it's extremely competitive with other retailers, and even with what it would cost to build yourself.

  • Okay i'm not sure how to format so i'll just leave as is
    1. Without including payment fees, this is already a sub 10% margin, most of which is from us paying sub-retail prices for parts.
    —10% margin after i've included a higher quality motherboard, 32 gb ram and a better nvme (I'll get to that later)

      32gb in my build with 10% margin. https://www.amazon.com/Silicon-Power-3200MHz-Heatsink-SP032G…, this would also be cheaper after shipping

    3. Source? That isn't just 1 random reddit post?

    DDR4 is at a point where basically all RAM is basically identical, all the chips used come from the likes of SK Hynix, Samsung, and Micron, and the manufacturer just designs the PCB.
    biostar's a say… minor brand, it's more trustworthy to buy more well known ones especially when you know how the rma service will be like.
    And no RAM is not basically identical as there are different ic's.
    Good example is the micron b die
    a bad example is hynix 4gb mfr
    and yes the manufacturer designs the pcb, but they also bin the ram. Corsair (vengeance lpx series), for example, bins their ram and speeds xmp can't even reach.

    1. AeroCool definitely isn't an unknown brand, and for CoolMoon, a CPU cooler is basically just a chunk of metal with a fan strapped to it, brand doesn't make a huge difference, so it's a good place to cut costs as opposed to paying for a name brand cooler which typically has a huge manufacturer markup relative to other PC parts.

    —Yes aerocool isn't unknown, but fishtanks are infamous for it's bad airflow. Phantex xt pro ultra or deepcool cc360 would've sufficed (unless you want it for looks so you get more customers)

    And the cpu cooler, it's 117 watts https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/amd-ryzen-7-…. No cooler like that would suffice, only a minimum of a tower cooler. https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/product/Js2WGX/thermalright-assa… I'm making changes as I go along as i've rushed the first list.

    1. a lga 1700 cpu (12600kf) which ultimately has a higher upgrade path than am4 (5700x3d)
      — lots off misinformation now
      first search is a reddit post
      "Some vendors are now releasing BIOS updates for motherboards and systems which contain the 0x129 microcode.

    Intel says this microcode update resolves the voltage spikes that occured under certain conditions, subsequently causing degradation to the CPU and that this newer microcode update will prevent degradation occuring in future for non-affected CPUs.

    Please check your support page for your motherboard/system and make sure you install the latest BIOS and check regularly for future versions."

    There has been no furher complaints with degradation since the 0x129
    7800x3d is in am5 socket, you'll need to change the b550m k to an am5 capable board. The best gaming cpu for am4 would be the 5800x3d

    1. Our build uses a better gen 4 ssd.
      —mp33 is gen 3. patriot p300 is also gen 3
      mp44l is made by the manufacturers of mp33.

    2. I see you created a brand new account to comment this, and downvote the post.
      — My accounts 1 month and 1 day old, not one day. I'm here for deals with minimal interaction. Also downvote is valid under "there are other cheaper deals"

    3. I think you'll find when we do deals like these, it's cheaper to buy from us than someone on marketplace, as we're paying sub-retail price.
      Yes, we're a business. For a business to work, you have to turn a profit, so we do make money on this. Why is this a deal then? Because it's extremely competitive with other retailers, and even with what it would cost to build yourself.

    —Yes i understand youre a business, profit and survival. Though I'm informing others a deal could be found cheaper.

    All in all
    Didn't meant to act hostile, but I'm informing other people.

      10% margin after i've included a higher quality motherboard, 32 gb ram and a better nvme (I'll get to that later)

      Your partpicker list is cheaper because of the 7800XT over the 4070 Super. It's an apples to oranges comparison. Yes, AMD cards are cheaper than Nvidia equivalent cards at traditional raster performance, but worse in ray tracing performance, and don't have DLSS. That being said the reason for the choice in our build mostly comes down to Nvidia brand recognition for people who aren't enthusiasts. RTX prebuilts outsell Radeon ones, it's just how it is. That, and no distributors stock AMD cards in New Zealand currently, only PBTech.

      32gb in my build with 10% margin. https://www.amazon.com/Silicon-Power-3200MHz-Heatsink-SP032G…, this would also be cheaper after shipping

      Yes, there's above 10% margin on RAM. Where there isn't above 10% margin is the GPU + CPU, which make up most of the cost.

      I don't have a source to the quality of vrms (which i assume are bad) and the quantity doesnt define the actual power. I'll just give you this since I'm also recommending a different platform

      You claimed it had 'incapable vrms'. Yes, quantity doesn't define the power, but it's a good indicator of how powerful it is, and the 5700X3D isn't very demanding.

      biostar's a say… minor brand, it's more trustworthy to buy more well known ones especially when you know how the rma service will be like.

      Biostar is something like the 5th largest consumer motherboard vendor.
      You don't RMA to the manufacturer, you RMA to us, the retailer.
      You didn't back up anything on them being 'infamous for their unreliability'

      And no RAM is not basically identical as there are different ic's.

      It's a prebuilt, it's most likely not going to be overclocked, ics aren't really relevant, it either works and hits the 3200mhz that it's rated for or doesn't. There's no reason to pay more for more expensive chips.
      That being said most brands cheapest DDR4 RAM will all be using similar cheap chips. I know we had trouble getting a few Crucial Pro DDR4 kits to boot on a bunch of systems.

      Yes aerocool isn't unknown, but fishtanks are infamous for it's bad airflow. Phantex xt pro ultra or deepcool cc360 would've sufficed (unless you want it for looks so you get more customers)

      Yes, the fishtank case is for the aesthetics, wholesale price for it is also cheaper than that of the two cases you mentioned. 'infamous for it's bad airflow' seems a bit exaggeratory, unless you had some stats to back it up. There are cases with worse airflow and ones with better airflow, even then the difference is just a few degrees.

      And the cpu cooler, it's 117 watts https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/amd-ryzen-7-…. No cooler like that would suffice, only a minimum of a tower cooler. https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/product/Js2WGX/thermalright-assa… I'm making changes as I go along as i've rushed the first list.

      117 watts isn't gaming, and it's peak draw. For sustained gaming, the draw will be significantly lower.
      The cooler is fine, we've done stress tests to check it works.

      Some vendors are now releasing BIOS updates for motherboards and systems which contain the 0x129 microcode.
      Intel says this microcode update resolves the voltage spikes that occured under certain conditions, subsequently causing degradation to the CPU and that this newer microcode update will prevent degradation occuring in future for non-affected CPUs.

      I was just pointing out that there was a controversy with the chips at the moment, but:
      1. The quote implies it isn't available to all motherboards
      2. Intel themselves says it fixes it, but has it been verified by third parties?

      Even with this new microcode, however, Intel is not done with the stability issue. Intel is still investigating whether it’s possible to improve the stability of already-degraded processors, and the overall tone of Intel’s announcement is very much that of a beta software fix

      Quoting from https://www.anandtech.com/show/21518/intel-publishes-first-m…

      7800x3d is in am5 socket

      I was saying that 13th and 14th gen chips are worse than the 7800X3D, so for a gaming PC, you should be getting the 7800X3D, which wouldn't be supported by the LGA1700 board.

      Our build uses a better gen 4 ssd.
      —mp33 is gen 3. patriot p300 is also gen 3

      Yeah, that was my bad, I was looking at the NM790 from the 4080 Super build above.

      My accounts 1 month and 1 day old, not one day. I'm here for deals with minimal interaction.

      Okay, I only saw this was the first comment and vote from it.

      Also downvote is valid under "there are other cheaper deals"

      No there isn't. This is the cheapest RTX 4070 Super prebuilt in New Zealand.

      We could do a 7800XT + 12600KF build for cheaper than the price listed in your partpicker list.

      It seems disingenuous to say there are cheaper deals, when you're saying those cheaper deals are to have a PC with different specs, assembled by a random on facebook marketplace, where you'd be losing out on warranty, alternative payment methods (credit card, afterpay, zip, etc), and hoping they'd not scam you for the couple grand you just gave them, and build it properly.

    1. Your partpicker list is cheaper because of the 7800XT over the 4070 Super. It's an apples to oranges comparison. Yes, AMD cards are cheaper than Nvidia equivalent cards at traditional raster performance, but worse in ray tracing performance, and don't have DLSS.

      your warranty is shorter than the warranty of the products themselves

    3. You didn't back up anything on them being 'infamous for their unreliability'
      I just remember them during the z170 boards. They havent gained traction for their parts lately.

    4. infamous for it's bad airflow' seems a bit exaggeratory, unless you had some stats to back it u
      it's known for being bad… it's just the design of them, the air doesn't go straight through the parts

    5. That being said most brands cheapest DDR4 RAM will all be using similar cheap chips.
      different brands bin differently. Some may actually bin their ram so it's actually functioning usually.

    6. The cooler is fine, we've done stress tests to check it works.
      yeah sure… doesn't mean the cooler wont break down faster than other coolers.

    7. The quote implies it isn't available to all motherboards
      its a 1 month old thread. I remember MSI being one of the later brands to release the 0x129 it's out now

    8. Intel themselves says it fixes it, but has it been verified by third parties?
      It's a time will tell
      though there has been no reported incidents yet. And intel's rma claims are fine… even upgrading users with 13900k to 14900k due to the lack of supply.
      and that source is from august, people don't update articles

    9. I was saying that 13th and 14th gen chips are worse than the 7800X3D, so for a gaming PC, you should be getting the 7800X3D, which wouldn't be supported by the LGA1700 board.
      You brought up the 7800x3d being better than an lga 1700 socket. That is true. But i was going against your am4 socket, not an am5. The best lga 1700 cpu is better than the best am4 cpu

    10. No there isn't. This is the cheapest RTX 4070 Super prebuilt in New Zealand.
      pc builds are a mix. Theres very rarely the same parts so theyre very much incomparable unless it's based on pure performance, and this is why i claim it as "there are cheaper alternatives"

    11. We could do a 7800XT + 12600KF build for cheaper than the price listed in your partpicker list, and probably will.
      yeah through trade discounts, economies of scale and choosing parts weighted towards cheap and not reliableness

    12. assembled by a random on facebook marketplace
      https://www.legendpc.co.nz/standard-system-assembly

    13. where you'd be losing out on warranty
      rma to manufacturer or returning the parts from the place you bought it from.

    14. alternative payment methods (credit card, afterpay, zip, etc)
      you're buying off the pcpp link i provided https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/list/CKfNfy, theyre multiple different retail stores, I doubt they only have paypal or something.

    15. and hoping they'd not scam you for the couple grand you just gave them
      charge back, best through paypal or bank. Yet pcpp only compiles through actual retailers

    16. cheaper deals are to have a PC with different specs
      more ram at a cheaper price
      better nvme
      7800xt and 12600kf matches perf of the 5700x3d and 4070 super raster wise.
      so therefore, better at cheaper.

    • +2

      Okay more customers with nvidia got it. Can't say much about the build, but the actual price paid for the performance.

      Again, apples to oranges. Some games will do better with one over the other, and that's not even mentioning anything unrelated to gaming, CUDA etc.

      your warranty is shorter than the warranty of the products themselves

      We have a standard 2 year warranty. If you're going off just the product warranty, you're assuming that you can troubleshoot the fault(s), and uninstall/reinstall the faulty/replacment part yourself, which for someone buying a prebuilt, is unreasonable.

      I just remember them during the z170 boards. They havent gained traction for their parts lately.

      That'd be because the only Biostar reseller/distributor in New Zealand currently, is us.

      it's known for being bad… it's just the design of them, the air doesn't go straight through the parts

      Like I said, negligible difference. We could do the same build with a different case, and we have other builds with other cases.

      different brands bin differently. Some may actually bin their ram so it's actually functioning usually.

      Again binning doesn't make a difference here, it's rated for 3200mhz and it works at 3200mhz.

      yeah sure… doesn't mean the cooler wont break down faster than other coolers.

      There's nothing to suggest it would break faster than alternative models.

      And intel's rma claims are fine… even upgrading users with 13900k to 14900k due to the lack of supply.

      That was after denying RMAs for the issue.

      Okay, but it doesn't really make sense to upgrade to a better CPU for gaming. You'd be looking at ~$700 for a 13/14th gen i7 for like 10-20% performance uplift, at which point the price of the motherboard seems negligible, and you wouldn't have any of the features of a Z690/Z790 board that high end CPUs are normally paired with.

      pc builds are a mix. Theres very rarely the same parts so theyre very much incomparable unless it's based on pure performance, and this is why i claim it as "there are cheaper alternatives"

      Alright, the point was you won't find a better RTX prebuilt at this price point in New Zealand.

      yeah through trade discounts, economies of scale and choosing parts weighted towards cheap and not reliableness

      All the parts are reliable. The Biostar and CoolMoon parts are cheaper because we get them directly from the manufacturer.

      https://www.legendpc.co.nz/standard-system-assembly

      You suggested using someone on facebook marketplace.

      I mean, we can easily beat the price of any build, with any brand of parts you want, if you're including a $129 build fee.

      rma to manufacturer or returning the parts from the place you bought it from.

      Same as the first point, that assumes you can troubleshoot and remove/install parts yourself, which defeats the purpose of a prebuilt.

      you're buying off the pcpp link i provided https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/list/CKfNfy, theyre multiple different retail stores, I doubt they only have paypal or something.
      charge back, best through paypal or bank. Yet pcpp only compiles through actual retailers

      I was assuming that you'd be giving the person on marketplace either the money or the parts, but if you're paying the $129 build fee from a retailer then sure.

      so therefore, better at cheaper.

      Again, apples to oranges.
      It's like if someone put up a deal for a $2 ham sandwich, and you said you could get a chicken sandwich for $1. Okay, but what if I want a ham sandwich?

      What if you weren't after raster performance, there are plenty of situations where the 4070 Super beats the 7800XT.

      We could sell the exact same PC from your part list as a prebuilt for $1985, no build fee, and it'd be profitable,

      If you can make part list with an RTX 4070 Super, 5700X3D and the $129 build fee you mentioned included, then I'd consider it a better deal.

    Kudos OP making a good case for your product.

  • It was fun reading the back and forth comments!
    There's so much tech jargon in them and I'm here for it.
    However, If people can understand most of what is written in the comments, those are the kind of people who would do their own research on parts and know what's better or worse for them.

    I reckon something important is missing here. Lots of people who aren't tech savvy don't know how good this product is in doing something.
    i.e. Gaming, Productivity, Video editing, Streaming, etc.
    Things like:
    Best bang for buck PC in the market for Gaming?
    Reliable?
    Fast?
    Future proof?

    Just food for thought.
