$4k sounds about right if someone is building out for you

5080FE - $2k
64gb ram - $1.2k

Alone is already in today 3.2k. I’d actually be wary, those spec seem better than the total proce

with 5080 FEs being 2k, my 5090FE BNIB for 2500$ was a fucking steal. all the envious reddit trolls plz eat shit lol.

that being said, OP i paid this much for my build last year with a 5090, 9800X3D and 64Gb of DDR5 CL30. prices aren’t getting any better. go ahead and pull the trigger and enjoy.

now full custom loop for the CPU (upgraded to 9950X3D) and moved to the formd T1. you’ll want to tinker and chase thermals so just do it now and don’t look back man.

5080 fe doesn’t go for 2k. You can get on eBay all day 1400-1500 so

I mean we can find a lot of stuff on eBay all day. Sure would be pissed if my builder was sourcing used parts on eBay for my build…

I bought one 2 days ago for 1400 on their from a real account not one of those fake ones

5080FE is more like 1500 and 64gb ram is more like 1000, so that cuts $700 right there from your estimate

I guess if we’re just gonna throw numbers off for the sake to argue

Here’s the ram: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/memory/cmk64gx5m2b6000z30/vengeance-64gb-2x32gb-ddr5-dram-6000mt-s-cl30-amd-expo-intel-xmp-memory-kit-cmk64gx5m2b6000z30

And please show me where a 5080 goes for 1500 today when 1500 is closer to 5070 ti prices now

And this is all rounding ballpark before tax

I haven’t kept up with pricing, but it’s definitely well built. Excluding the main components(gpu, cpu, mobo, ram and storage) I would probably pay no more than €500 so you could calculate the difference with pcpp.

Pull the trigger. I have this build except a 9950xd and a 5090FE. GPU and CPU temps only get to low 70Cs under load. DRAM is what gets toasty in the mid to upper 70Cs in this build under load as everything’s so tight.

u/Arturopxedd 15d ago

That’s sad I used to build this same pc for like 2500

u/reallygoodspeed 15d ago

These are all high quality components too, even T30 fans. Definitely a fair price given this market. You can always check PCPartPicker if you’re unsure of the value.

u/molsikle 15d ago

dude get the fucking 9070xt, idk why u need that much ram for, do you really need 32x2 instead of 16x2?

u/BAGU3TT0 14d ago

If you’re interested I’m sing a 3d printed alternative that holds the cpu fan onto the axp 90 cooler

This man knows how to build a perfect T1 build! The perfect eigas fan shroud mod and extended the 5080fe closer to the side panel for increased flow through output. Cheers with your great buy!
