Are NZXT Prebuilts a SCAM?

[@GivemChills]

NOTE: I made this video a year ago before the rental program got introduced by NZXT, a lot of things have changed since I made this video 😂 Also at the time I made the video this prebuilt was a good choice, that’s not the case anymore.

[@YourMasta]

This is definitely a review model PC, the cables in the back of my PC looked nothing like this. Furthermore, why would you review a PC without using it for more than a day? This doesn't give a realistic outlook on a true customer's experience. Unfortunately, we live in a time where the consumer will always lose. Consumer get information from influencers, who are usually influenced by the companies. It's extremely hard to have access to real NZXT customers to see what they have experienced. From what I have seen, a lot of people have consistent problems with the machine NZXT has sent them, even after a year. So, trend lightly.

[@FrenchieTime1225]

My NZXT player 2 prime looks exactly like this but mines white. It all depends on the parts you choose to put in it. It’s not a review model or something. You just got different parts. Mine has a 4070TI and 64gb and 1tb storage with a Ryzen 9 processor. It completely depends on the parts on the way the wires are.

[@YourMasta]

Just to let you know if you add fans to the top that actually voids the warranty so for anyone out there who is getting this for the peace of mind warranty just know if you do add or tweak things on it you do not get that warranty any longer

[@SRT8300CKY]

Just ordered this for my 8 year old son for Christmas. Upgraded the fans to the 2-F120 FGB duos for $72…. But Black Friday the player 2 was on sale for $1440 so not a horrible upgrade. With you building it and having a $250 difference, it works out because they also threw in a free 27 inch monitor! Not the best monitor but it’ll do. After watching this video, I’m assured this was a great buy for my son for Christmas! 🎄

Hey man, I have the player 2 prime with the 5800x and 4070ti. I love it and have had no issues with it at all. I player a lot of sim type games but also some fps and have all of them pretty much maxxed out on the settings and still get at least 100 plus fps on most of them. When I first really started gaming i was happy with 10 fps so getting the max frame rates for me is not something i look for nor really care about so its up to you. As you saw in the video and the description he has all the benchmark data for this specific pc which honestly would've been plenty for my game style, but i wanted to kinda spend some extra money on myself so i went with the prime, plus i was drunk when i did buy it. If all you do is light gaming and your pc isn't your life or source of income id say your fine with just the player 2, maybe even the player 1/1 prime. But if it is a big part of your lively hood go for the 2 prime and you won't be dissapointed.

I had a NZXT system built for my kid in April of 2021 with one of their 120 mm AIO's. I had the AIO replaced once after it started failing within a year of receiving the computer. I just replaced the second AIO with an air cooler after CPU temps started hitting 90's on an AMD 5 ryzen 3600. 2 replacements in 2 1/2 years doesn't speak to great build quality on these 120 mm AIO's by NZXT. I have had my NZXT since 2020 with a 240 mm AIO with absolutely zero issues however. Your mileage my obviously vary.

IMPORTANT: The water cooling is not installed correctly. I'll explain - If the water pump is not the highest point in the system, the air will collect in it and it will damage your water cooling. aside from that it can lead to splashing water what is not good for it and annoys too. so if you get one of those PC's make sure that you place the water cooling at the top of the case so it is impossible for the air to collect in the pump.

@givemchills I did the fan upgrade and it says I’ll get 2-F120 RGB Duos. Is this the upgrade you mentioned about that you’re missing from the top? I’m just wondering what the “upgrade” is, are they replacing the ones in the front for these 2 I upgraded to or will they be on top like you’re saying we should get? I guess an easier way to say it is, since I upgraded will I have 4 fans total (1 in back, 1 on bottom, 2 in front) or 6 fans total (1 in back, 1 on bottom, 2 in front and then 2 on top) 😂 hope you understand what I’m meaning lol. Thanks man! Also, with the Black Friday sale, free shipping on the pc alone, a free Canvas 27q Monitor that I have to pay $15 shipping on 😅, NY State tax and I don’t know why NY City Tax my total was $1649.16 !
