Is this a good deal on a prebuilt cyberpower pc.

Would i be able to build it myself at that price.
2 questions before I decide. Is the cooler overkill and do i need more case fans
 
Put the parts in pcpartpicker and see what prices you get. That will give you your answer. Otherwise don't buy pre-built because they are trash is my stance.
 
Like said above, you're just paying extra to not DIY, which is fine if you have no interest or are afraid.

Price seems high for 3070ti and default case fans. IMHO if you go for a corsair case, go for their fans and cooler. I hate running multiple software for rgb. But it'll work fine as is, the cm coolers are nice too
 
Agreed with the comments above. The price seems high, especially with gpu prices beginning to drop. I suggest looking at other pre-builts, you can find some really good deals if you can wait. Of course you'll always be giving up some upgradeability and hardware per dollar with pre-builts but if it's a good brand I wouldn't hesitate if it fills you rneeds
 
GPU prices are dropping and availability is growing fast, plus new generation cards are likely coming this year meaning these will get even cheaper - if you can wait!
 
That's the best choice, you'll probably save yourself a few hundred just by waiting a few months towards the end of the year.

This goes to show you that you get what you pay for. Cyberpower may use good-quality components on its custom-built PCs, but the reason why these PCs cost so much less is in the assembly and packing. Assembly quality is mediocre at best, while the company simply doesn't pack the PCs correctly, exacerbating the already mediocre-at-best assembly. It's no surprise that Cyberpower PCs almost consistently arrive with damaged or DOA parts.

It does make me sad. Because it would save me time not having to order and build it from scratch. But if I am going to have problems it is not worth it.
 
I have never owned a pre built but there are certainly some made with good quality. Cheap assembly doesn't mean it's going to fall apart. It's likely they use the cheapest thermal paste, maybe the cases are on the cheap side, etc. If you're not going to overclock or swap parts much, I wouldn't worry about it. Just check reviews to be sure.
