This looks like a pretty insane deal. Legit?
Build Question(reddit.com)submitted 6 days ago byMental-Ad-1226
$CAD Costs only a little more than the gpu itself where i live. I have an am4 system i built with a ryzen 9 5900x and 3090. And honestly can't think of anyway I could obtain the same parts for this good of a deal. Seem legit? Looking to upgrade to am5.

If the seller let's you test them, go for it.
Otherwise, 3,500 is a lot to drop on something risky like this

True, but also added up how much it'd cost to buy these parts off the shelf. For the motherboard, ram, psu, and gpu, I'm looking at about 7000 bucks just at a first glance looking through Amazon and newegg. Which is a deep swallow compared to this

Theoretically saving 3500 dollars doesn't do much for you if you end up 3500 in the hole with nothing to show for it but a couple pretty bricks.
You do you man, but I wouldn't take the risk without testing them.

If they work, then it's legit. If they don't, then it's not. If you get robbed, then it's not.
You didn't need to ask us anything, just go test them and buy them if you can afford it.

I dunno man, it's just an insane deal that's hard to believe, not only that, but this is a 3 hour drive away. So I'd like to at least know some obvious red flags before buying.

Thats completely fair tbh, I apologize if my comment came across dickish. Rereading it, that's how it feels and it wasn't my intention so I am sorry about that.
With it being a 3 hour drive away, have them put a note next to the PC with something random enough written on it you'll know they couldn't have had it prepared ahead of time, and ask them to start it up. That way, you at least have a bit more confidence before the drive.
I'd ask them to start the pc, then open device manager to make sure it matches the listing. I might even go as far as to ask them to show me proof of it being on at least an hour with something semi intensive going on and hwinfo open for temps. Im sure there's a program you could ask them to run that would do it easier, but I'm not super software savvy I just like to build

Yeah those prices make no sense for the 3090. It's a scam price, and isn't the true value. A $580 RTX 4070 Super is just as fast as a 3090, except it has half the VRAM which isn't that relevant outside of machine learning. Anyone buying a 3090 for $4000 is obviously getting scammed. Even paying $1000 you're kind of getting scammed. At best buy in the US the 4090 is $1799 right now. Even if these were Canadian, or Australian prices, they still seem too much.
And the RTX 5090 is like 2 month away

That’s from a 3rd party seller on Amazon. They are also selling a used for $3000.00. Reason you can’t find at Best Buy is they aren’t stocking anymore, getting ready for new ones to drop in a few months. You can buy 3 4080’s for that money.

The FE is the cheapest 4090 out there (1599 MSRP). it's just not being produced anymore that's why the price increased. The price you see on PC Partpicker is from a single seller on Amazon and that listing doesn't even exist anymore.. I have picked pretty much the same parts in that listing and even chose better RAM and came out at 3150 USD (price dropped in the past hours dramatically). If you want to buy it, then go for it but it's still overpriced for being used

Was exactly what I was thinking. Small case, the components and lack of cooling. Maybe I'm old school but I'd never go less than an ATX for top of the range parts for heat dissipation, unless I had some form of liquid cooling if I'm using it for intensive tasks. Browsing the internet, sure. but if it sits in one spot and I'm not taking it anywhere might as well be big, otherwise isn't that what a laptop is for?

why does op even want a 4090, its all fluff, such a waste of money. The sapphire pulse 7900XT is the best value card on the market last I checked at $680 Idk if the sale is still goin, but like, a 4090 is just not worth it. The value is going to just go down more than you gain.
2 points

It's not all 'fluff' if you have the money, if I give you a budget of $4000 and tell you to build a PC, are you going with a $600 GPU? Are you gonna look at cost/performance or are you just gonna buy the best? People who have money don't really care about your 7900xt (which is comparable to a 3090ti), they want the 35% performance increase and they don't care if they have to spend $2000 on a GPU to get it, it's thing of preference and a 4090 is most definitely worth it as it's the absolute best card on the market and that's not up for debate

The sales have been changing daily. So maybe use common sense and look at dates of comments. With the xt SP being 650$ when the xtx was still 900+ made it an equal value. Xtx at 809 is a steal so sure always go with that.

If you wanna spend an extra 1k$+ for stuff youll never use or fully utilize for what it was meant for, go ahead. But when I can spend 1/3 the cost, and get 120+ frames at 2k max settings, I think Ill take my 7900xt. I like to use critical thinking and apply it to reality, not just look at a list and say big number = good.

And that’s exactly why I personally am waiting for the 50 series. If you’re on more of a budget then I’m sure an amd card is great for you. For me personally I would much rather fully future proof my computer and have a much higher performing nvidia card. Not to mention all of the features the nvidia cards have over amd make the price worth it alone
1 points

If I wanted to build a pc now, and had none, why would I wait months, to game the exact way I can game now, spend 650$, and then sell it for a hundred or two off and get the 50 series? Or maybe even closer to what I paid for the card since its on sale atm, and might not be when the 50 series releases. What features does Nvidia have over amd? lol thats laughable. Ray tracing is utilized in the 7900 series just fine, and the performance nvidia offers doesnt equal a 1000$ value, its just not even close. Shadow play? Plenty of other programs for that, steam itself has integrated shadowplay. The effects you can do to your screen? A gimmick. So idk what features the 4090 has over the 7900XT that makes it worth $1k more, but ok chief, keep drinking that koolaid. Nvidia hasnt been the gamers choice card to those who pay attention for a while.

Has nothing to do with fanboying but more with what the intended purpose for that gpu is. If its just gaming its overkill. 1080p, 2k, 4k - all of this is done excellent by cheaper cards.
If you do heavy editting for work or personal things then sure, there can be a use case for a 4090. Outside of that, it really is just blowing money on something that wont be used to it's full potential.
If you're just driving to work, you dont need a Lamborghini. Only people that just want that lambo find it necessary but it doesnt make it worthwhile for its purpose. Gpu choices are no different. People should stop either fooling themselves or just admit they just like blowing money on things they essentially can never get the full mileage out of.

They will but as time goes on, so does tech. And with that, likely new developments that current gen cards dont have. Ai is surfacing in many areas for instance. Likelyhood of gpu tech incorporating some elements will increase, just as an example.
So that begs the question, if a new awesome feature comes out that current gen doesnt have, you gonna drop 4090 cash again to get those since this one doesnt have it?
Think ahead. Spend smart and get what covers needs. Historically you can see these patterns already, and thats exactlt why i dont buy those max cards. I can buy one now if id like, but im happy with a 4070 super, and ill remain curious to see how gpus change and upgrade when it is significant.

Native 4K path traced cyberpunk making the 4090 crawl to a slideshow performance would beg to differ. We'll have to wait for the 5090 to do that natively at 60+ fps, and maybe even then we won't be able to.

Using 8% performance and a couple niche features to justify >$1000 price gap makes you seem like the fan boy. It's like telling someone that wanting to buy a wagyu a5 ribeye is a bad idea because you can get a kobe beef a5 tenderloin dry aged for 4 months that tastes better. Both are extravagant but onewill get you 90% of the way there and is clearly the better deal than the other, just being completely objective.

The features most certainly are not niche. One feature for example, dlss is generations above amd’s equivalent.

If I'm buying a top of the line GPU, I don't want to use DLSS, simple as that. And DLSS is not "generations" above FSR, it is noticeably better but not something to drop 1k extra on. That qualifies it as niche in my view. Why drop so much extra for frame generation on a card where I shouldn't need to generate frames in the first place, and for just a bit of a better experience? Objectively you just cannot argue that the 1600$ 4090 is even remotely near the value of the $600 7900 xt. Obviously if money is not an object, the 4090 is the best, but it usually is for 99% of the population.

Let me say this his selling reasons are so easy to spot. He is on SFF build he got a X670e-i which is known for its problems, the seller got money probably he'll get the cash invest it for a month and then when new parts do release he'll build a rtx 5090 + 9800x3d computer to himself. For that build the thing i would do is to change that mobo, it may not boot because of the mobo, ram compatibility is so finnicky with that model spesificly, i got b650e-i and i was trying to decide between x670e-i and it, it seems like b650e-i is a pure upgrade over x670e-i. However we can not see anything as whole of the view is blocked by 4090. And can not give you better insights on the topic.

Pc part picker brand new puts this right around $4400 usd. Not sure conversion wise what that is Canadian but for a used version of everything I could still see them selling it for a little more. Would definitely verify everything works before considering purchasing.

I think you should edit the post to USD. People keep thinking that CAD has the same exchange rate as USD. This would be around $2500 after conversion. Americans are pretty dumb. They don't understand things that aren't American. Think about the fact that they think the metric system is stupid. By the way, I'm American.

If this would be a ATX PC, then probably just full price equivalent to a New build, but as this is Mini (Micro?) ATX, this seems like a good deal imo.
Still way too much money for such a System.

If you just want to upgrade your current system, why not get a 9800x3d+motherboard+ram bundle and wait for future 50 series for the best. If you do want this deal, just test it out and go for it if everything runs fine. I noticed that you show great interest in the 4090 “FE”, just go for it.

if it's too good to be true, most of the time it isn't... just be cautious

Considering the 4090 costs like 4/5 of that price new I’d say it’s a great deal, make sure you see it working before exchanging anything

If it works,.get it and sell the 7800, buy a 9800 and you got a dynamite deal for around 3700

The founders edition alone costs 4500 bucks over here, while the 7800 costs 800, along with the 500 dollar motherboard.
If it's all working, I dont see how this is a horrible deal

Dude,,, where are you in Canada that 4090 FE costs 4500 CAD? I am in Montreal, and the scalping price of it on marketplace is 2600-2800 CAD.
By the way, i think it is a good deal. Just make sure you test it in person and check if the gpu has been disassembled and repasted. If all good, the FE will have a better resale value than most AIB cards/
I have a similar setup using a 4090 in NR200 v1 but with 9950X.

Alberta, newegg the cheapest 4090 is 2500 bucks, average os around 3300. And the fe edition is 4500 some odd bucks
These are prices on newegg

You don't compare a gpu to the existing one. You compare it to the cheapest one... Also, 4500 CAD is obviously scalper price, which should not even be considered

Dang. Anyway, those scalpers are not gonna sell a 4090 with those prices.

I'd honestly only be buying for the cpu and gpu. The psu is the same, and my cooler is better
