So what is so good about this steak computer that warrants 6x the cost of the hardware? The afterburner card?

- erikpukinskis 7y agoHard to say exactly because you didn't provide your build. But I've specced out sub-$1000 PCs recently and you have to make a lot of sacrifices to get there. A good gaming PC with a high end GPU is going to start in the $1400 range.
- effie 7y agoFor example here: Budget build for $1100: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HGNWHh https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HGNWHh More beefy I/O build for $1500: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KWCtMZ https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KWCtMZ And those are prices in retail. One can get this kind of machine second hand at 30-50% discount. These would have comparable performance to what Apple is proposing for $6000, except for the Afterburner card, which I am not so sure about. Doubt it is worth $4000 though. High-end gaming setup would begin to touch $2000, but that is not what I am talking about.
