Is This Pre-Built Gaming PC Offer Too Good to Be True?

-

I’m not really into hardware and I’m looking to buy a pre-built gaming rig. I found one for $2400 plus shipping (almost $2500 total), but it lacks a cooling system, and I’m not sure if I would need to add one. Based on the specs, it’s from ASUS and includes an Intel Core i9 CPU running at 6 GHz, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX dedicated graphics card, 128 GB of RAM, and a massive 11 TB memory storage capacity. I’m really concerned it’s a scam or that it might be missing important components. Can anyone help me verify this?

I’m pretty sure this is a scam as well. I built my first PC a couple of years ago, and it was a lot easier than I thought. It felt like assembling Legos after a quick YouTube tutorial. I get that it might look intimidating, but if you want to save cash in the long run, building your own might be worth considering!

I totally get that! For me, I have trouble with my hands due to a past injury, so building isn’t really an option. Just be careful with such offers!
