Rad 7800X3D Pre-Built Gaming PCs from Skytech, iBUYPOWER, Paradox, META, PowerGPU, & Alexander PCs

[@djp1234]

I’ve had a Skytech 7800x3d / 4090 for 8 months and still happy with it. It’s on sale on Amazon right now.

[@braethorn]

Glad it worked out for you! I generally recommend buying directly from the SI instead of going with a third-party retailer, but it's not a deal breaker.

[@OnlyCalvesLife]

how much was it on amazon? sale over but still curious

[@djp1234]

@@OnlyCalvesLife I got it back in November for 3400, but it’s even cheaper now. I think it’s 3099 right now.

[@Foreverinemptybliss]

I'm currently on a 7800X3D 4070ti Super from Skytech as well, its the second PC I've purchased from them and Ive had zero complaints. Fast shipping as well.

[@bomorris5050]

I just got a 7800x3D, 64 GB of DDR5 6000 CL 30 RAM, a 4070 Super OC, 6 TBs of space, a 360 MM AIO, and 7 Mastercool MF 120 RGB fans for 3k from PhynixPC. They don't offer a lot of selections, so maybe that is why they don't get talked about a lot... but I got more for the same price as a lot of these.

[@PhynixPCs]

Thanks for letting us build it for you! We don't offer too many options on our website due to us being so small but we provide free consultations and are open to any custom requests one might have for their build.

[@bomorris5050]

@@PhynixPCs My only "feedback" would be to offer an AMD GPU option for an all AMD build. The price would come down and make it more accessible in this economy. I know you can do fully custom builds... but I didn't think to ask. BUT... all in all I am happy with my PC. I've watched Braethorn do enough PC match-making to see that the price I paid was fair, and I do think I got more bang for my buck at Phynix than I would have if I went to another SI.

[@braethorn]

I've featured them in probably like a dozen videos lol They're awesome, and yeah, they'll be cheaper than a boutique builder. No surprise there. Pretty sure I went over boutique pricing in the video.

[@doomer2021]

Nice! I was just thinking it had been a little while since the last SI Weekly, good to see you're back.

[@braethorn]

Thanks! Honestly, I wish I hadn't called it a "weekly" show. There are times when I don't feel like there's anything relevant to showcase and I don't like making meaningless content.

[@julianalexander4525]

I recently had Alexander build me a very high end PC, thanks to you. Great company! I even had an issue with the RAM when it showed up and they went above and beyond helping me with it. Alexander PC's is 10/10

[@braethorn]

Glad to hear it worked out for you!

[@sadangelcig]

how much did it cost

[@julianalexander4525]

@@sadangelcig $5200

[@randallwoodward5542]

Just purchased the SkyTech Legacy 4 from Newegg just two days ago. list price $2799 and got it for $2199. 7800X3D, 4080 Super, 32 GB RAM 5600mhz, 1TB M.2 drive. The case is interesting, Antec P1 but can't beat that price for the CPU-GPU combo.

[@_GntlStone_]

First time I have heard the actual correlation of GHz to IPC and why it matters. 👍👍 Excited to see the unboxing video and your thoughts on the new chips.

[@braethorn]

It's a huge factor when it comes to generational uplifts in performance!

[@hazyier2003]

Holy cow the price difference for the same build across the sites he has listed is crazy.

[@johnpaulbacon8320]

Great video. Keep your wonderful content coming.

[@braethorn]

Thanks!

[@KeepingItFishy]

I’m interested in buying IBUYPOWER RDY Y40RG201! You recommended it to me for streaming, some 1440p gaming and content creation… is it still a great choice?!

[@braethorn]

As long as you don't mind having to use low profile PCIe add-in cards for additional USB or capture card, it's good. I generally prefer more standard cases for streaming systems since the Y series of cases from HYTE don't accommodate standard size add-in cards.

[@KeepingItFishy]

@@braethorn ok thanks yeah I plan on using an elgato usb capture card. Should I wait for a price drop on it like u recommend with the new tech coming out?! I don’t care for 9000 series, I want this setup cheaper! 😂

[@eliaso.621]

I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on that Paradox custom build. Did some research and I hear it's highly efficient at cooling.

[@TransformersHoarder]

I want to get into VR and was wondering if the Ryzen 7 7800X3D with a 4070 Super 32GB DDR5 6000 would be recommended?

[@antondovydaitis2261]

Nice!

[@braethorn]

Right??

[@Stratsforgaming]

Do you recommend redux for my first gaming pc/stocks and trading

[@braethorn]

Not until they catch up with the industry and stop using old SSDs and RAM

[@JLGolf26]

In the Alexander custom builder you showed ,would Alexander be the ones putting everything together for you?Or is that there just to order all the parts and the customer has to put everything together?

[@dabagz1]

that king 95 for $1579 is the one to get. Very good system for that price

[@braethorn]

Yup, that's why it was front and center. I was very impressed with the 1440p performance of the 7800XT.

[@OfficialFinal]

@@braethornWould I be better of getting the King 95 for $1579 or the omega 2 which has the 4070 super gpu if I want to stream?

[@SnackJar]

Brother just get the king95 but you won't have any issues streaming at all ​@@OfficialFinal

[@MaineMotman]

I ordered from ibuypower back in 2009, and i just placed an order for an RDY Y60 005 prebuilt. Getting back into pc gaming, but doing heavy research before it arrives- i'm quite rusty

[@brandond2868]

Great video thanks. I am in the market for a new computer to handle all my trading activities, while also gaming with my kids. I am ruling out Intel for now and was looking at AMD. What do you recommend for running multiple demanding trading applications and gaming?

[@rz5090]

Curious on your thoughts with the Nvidia cards and the power connection melting, it has me leaning towards an XTX just to avoid that. Seemed to be more 4090’s having this problem but have seen a few of the others have this issue in the lower series. Have Nvidia actually fixed this issue? Looking to get a system mostly for Simracing 1440p triple monitors and probably some VR racing as well eventually.. gotta get the PC first. I do play some open world games like Star Wars survivor or Hogwarts Legacy. I don’t do streaming or anything like that so that isn’t important. Just good visuals and frame rates. Also any monitors you recommend? (1440p) doubt I can afford 4k and want to avoid the ultra wides because you lose some of the top to bottom visual in the cars.

[@leadfootnick4x4]

Good video and have a good day

[@bquirky23]

Have a budget of around €1500 for a newer pc , so that 1st King95 is looking very tempting . Do you know if they ship to Ireland and expensive to do so ? appreciate the recommendations! Gained a sub /like 😎

[@braethorn]

It's usually more cost-effective to order from an SI in the UK. Come by the stream and I can help 👍

[@bquirky23]

@braethorn I signed up to the spreadsheet but can't see myself on it 😅 gonna be tough to catch you at 3am in the morning on a workday for me , if you ever get a chance to go threw my request I'd be very grateful 🙏

Hi looking to buy a gaming pc I would the the best processor out it's mainly going to be for gaming . My price range is 4gs and up nothing pass 6 any suggestions?

[@cardocando]

Hi Sir. My windows 10 pc is old but still works great. It will no longer be supported in 2025. My core i7 motherboard is not compatible with a windows 11 upgrade. I'm a novice. I live in Dallas TX. My budget for a new pc is 1500. I want core i9, water cooled, 16 - 32gb of ram, an optical drive, 2 - 1tb hard drives, high end graphics card, windows 11, blue tooth and wire connector, and a card reader. I do gaming just 4 hrs a week. Mostly I watch videos a lot and download tons of stuff. Is it possible to get all that with my budget? I could go as high as 2000, a hardship but doable. What would you charge me for such a device?

[@蓮90]

The first skytech pc he checked out in the video is the best you're going to find at your budget. The 7800X3D cpu and 7800XT gpu are both very high end parts. $1,580 is a great price for that performance. I would go for that if I were you. I have something very similar myself and I can play most games at 1440p(2K) with over 100fps. Only problem is the 1 tb of nvme storage. Luckily even for a novice, buying more storage is the easiest upgrade you can do. Just buy an extra 1 or 2 tb sata ssd and you're good to go. All you have to do is plug a couple cables into it from the motherboard and the power supply unit, mount the storage in its proper seat with M3 x 5mm screws, then format it in disk management after boot. Takes 10 minutes tops. There are youtube videos that can walk you through it. Update: After reading your comment again, I noticed you said you wanted an optical drive. I don't think that Skytech pc has one, and it will be hard for you to find one that does since those are going out of trend. There are however external usb optical drives you can buy for pretty cheap.

Man have this stuff changed. They need to switch to the 7950x3d now

nerd alert

[@Savethepandabears]

Why would you recommend a skytech 7800 X 3D with a 7900 xtx for over 2500$ you could literally build this PC yourself and instead of using a 7900xtx 😅😂 you can put a 4090 in there for the same damn price I think I'll build it myself and take the 4090 instead for the same price its moronic the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4090 WINDFORCE V2 24G goes for 1600$ the cheapest 4090 out there

[@braethorn]

Wait...you can BUILD a PC yourself??? And it's CHEAPER??? You mean it costs MORE to get a pre-built??? Because they build it for you, test it, add a warranty, and other stuff people other than you care about??? Good thing I mention this in literally every episode of SIW lmao 5:33
