GN just reviewed one of the Newegg house brand prebuilts and it was the best one so far.



I think mine was a ROG Strix. I misspoke and didn’t realize ABS is Newegg. I just meant I got a prebuilt from the Newegg site, ha.

My case is the best I’ve ever had w plenty of fans included, the CPU is water cooled, cable management and parts are top notch, etc., etc. It is 3x the cost of the stuff he’s reviewing, so probably the difference maker.

$1050 was the most expensive one they've reviewed so far, so some of the issues are understandable. For $3k+ though, that machine better be put together flawlessly.

posted in the monitor thread, but figured I'd drop it here as it's likely to get more eyeballs...

any forum bros need a new monitor?
I won the one below on Newegg Shuffle, bundled with my 3080, and I don't want to deal with Ebay, Craigslist, Facebook or other platforms.
Happy to let it go to a good FOH home below MSRP, and I've got a massive corporate shipping discount.

I was being serious 😒
I didn't mean that you weren't serious, was just asking ppl to only send serious offers, as i don't intend to respond to every lowball offer I get.

we're near $300, which is pretty much the golden number.

we can take any further inquiries into PMs to avoid boring the rest of the thread with this derail

Parts weren’t expected to be gathered until early to mid aug, so in a week they’ve got them and that’s pretty damn awesome.
