You can still get a 4090 for MSRP or less. I bought a brand new 4090 FE last month for $1600 from a dude on FB marketplace. It was still sealed in the NVIDIA shipping box and I got the receipt for it. In my area, I’ve seen people selling lightly used Strix 4090’s for ~$1500. I sold my lightly used White Strix 4090 for $2000. The deals are out there for sure. Just gotta pounce when you see them because someone else will for sure snatch it up. Especially now that stock is dwindling and for whatever reason people like doing new builds around Christmas.Part List - Intel Core i9-13900K, GeForce RTX 4090, Antec Performance 1 FT ATX Full Tower - PCPartPicker

I was ready to get something like this, but I'm not paying over MSRP for the 4090
I'm looking up pre-built machines with 4090s now to see what's out there. B&H has the card for 2099.99, that's the only retailer I see with any available for purchase.

Anybody looking for NAS deals, B&H is still running a sale on a few of the 2 bay and 4 bay Synology units.
slickdeals.net
I picked up a DS923+ awhile ago before the sale and let me tell you $479 is a great deal on that unit considering it retails for $600. Plus the deals on ssd and hdd, you could load these up with some nice storage capacity at not much cost.
@GoldenGlove Nice to see this thread stickied.

The thing I don’t like about a lot of pre-builts is they usually cheap out on the motherboard, RAM, and PSU. I recognize though that a lot of people don’t really care about that shyt but I like to overclock so I need all that to be top notch.
This case you replaced in my list that I bought has a shytty temperature flow for GPUs. The other review videos didn't mention it but this one did.
However instead of the 80 plus degrees the reviewer got, with my gpu it seems to be cooler at 65 degrees.

Aye, that, and the responses in this thread, is what held me off on buying the Omen 45L. They don't tell you what brand/type components they use aside from the cpu, and their own proprietary GFX card.
Now I'm thinking just get this 6 month Geforce Now for $99. Comes with 4080 access and 3 months of PC Game Pass. Really wanted my own monster PC for PCVR, but I may just rent one on Grover for a couple months. Right now they have a Black Friday one month free sale.
Is there a quick way to pull up a blue screen of death log? My shyt keeps resetting overnight, and I assume it's likely a BSOD. It's probably my ram, like it always is 
I really don't want to break down my shyt for like the 17th time, but shyt is pissing me off. I haven't played a game really since BG3, but I'm ready to get into Starfield. I feel the gaming itch again. Also, I really wish this 4Kx2 was OLED

If you are unhappy and want optimal airflow get an all mesh case like the popular ASUS AP201. A slight upgrade from yours is the Deepcool CH370 since it has front grill with openings. Also the temps depend on the room temperature which is in turn affected by the season and humidity in the room.

I’m a bit bias but you can’t go wrong with a Corsair 4000D Airflow. Those joints are always on sale for the low.
Found a new 4090 card at Best Buy for $1819.99, might grab this now. Still looking to see if anything pops up at MSRP
It's this one...
PNY NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 24GB GDDR6X PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card with Triple Fan and DLSS 3 - Black
NVM: It's gone now

Damn breh. You gotta pull the trigger quick. You’re only going to get the Founders Edition for $1600. Every other 4090 is going to be sold for more than the MSRP. The Strix 4090 was the most expensive version ($2000) until Asus dropped the 4090 Matrix ($3200) a couple months ago. All the other cards will fall somewhere in between as far as pricing.

I was fukking around, put the shyt in my cart, then went to YouTube and looked for videos talking about this particular model. Everything looked good, plus it was Best Buy. I go, welp, let gone head and check out and buy it.
Got it with the no longer in stock message.
I kept checking the tracker and it popped back up again just now and I bought it. Now I can order the rest of these parts today during these Cyber Monday deals.
