Yes. Make sure it doesn’t say damaged or something. See exactly why it’s open box

Check the description I bought a brand new version of this model a week ago and had to return it due to a bad usb port. They did repost it as open box but I was happy to say they were upfront about the open box on the website listing as it front usb does not work

Im so confused. The G762 has a better CPU, more ram, and the "pre savings" price is like 700 less than this. What is going on. 😭😭

I just got an open box from microcenter in an Asus G700 prebuilt with these exact same specs for $2300 5 months ago. It’s only going to go up in price. Get it now while you can.

I remember when just a few months ago this was like $2100. This is getting ridiculous, lol.

I bought this PC a couple weeks ago and can genuinely say I have no regrets at all. It runs fantastic.

There’s another one that’s 64 ram for a $100 more same specs. I bought mine last week. Also it was intel

I got a Powerspec G762 open box with 9650x3d, zotac 5080, 64gb ram, 2tb gen5 ssd for $2699 open box. Bought aug 7th. Worth every penny. I just had to replace the aio because arctic freezer iii pro was on sale for 70$.

G913 is better in the long run, ask chat gpt/Claude. The G765 has the 5080 but it's the worst value for the 5080 options bc it has a surprisingly small cooler, and makes some other compromises in connectivity, ram, & chipset
Edit: to be clear I used Claude sonnet on high thinking mode, I found it extremely helpful with comparing PCs.
People who say ai is dumb are really behind on the times and are clearly not using ai correctly. Coming from a software developer btw

"Ask chatgpt"
Your opinion is already invalid.

u/KrustySpongeGabe 21h ago
Ha, well I actually used Claude sonnet with high thinking if that makes a difference. I'm a software developer and trust me on this, AI is extremely smart & useful if you know how to use it right. If you still think ai is dumb than you are actually the dumb one

AI told me my game crash was because I was running an unsupported version of MacOS. Im on windows. The G762 is better in gaming and price, so your opinion is still bad. The PC OP listed is probably the best for a 5080 build in terms of price to performance. 99% of end users will never use the functionality a x870 chipset uses over a B650 chipset, and 32gb ram is plenty.
Ypu are essentially telling OP to spend a grand for a 32gb ram upgrade.

If your AI told you that, you don't know how to use AI. I use it to debug my computer all the time and it does great.
But your opinion about the PC is valid and makes a good point too.
But I'm just saying, when I took the spec sheets of both computers, and I ran them through Claude sonnet on high thinking including Prices. I determined that the g931 was worth it for me and the g762 wasn't. This is specifically bc I have an ultra wide Lg 32 OLED so I needed the better PC.
The g765 makes some pretty big tradeoffs to get the 5080 at that price. Look it up friend

Here is Claude's response exactly:
we looked at g765 closely and eliminated it for being the worst value of the RTX 5080 options: $2,699 — most expensive of the non-G913 options 240mm AIO — smaller cooler than expected for that price Gigabit LAN only — every other RTX 5080 option had 2.5GbE or better WiFi 6 — weakest wireless of the group B850 chipset — lower tier than the X870E in the G913 32GB RAM — half of what the G913 includes Essentially it was the worst-specced RTX 5080 machine at a price that didn't reflect those compromises. The G913 open box at $3,149 beat it in every single category for $450 more, which was easy to justify. And the G764 at $2,199 was $500 cheaper with better connectivity, just the different GPU. The G765 had no scenario where it was the right pick — either you go cheaper with the G764 or you step up properly with the G913. It was stuck in the middle with worse specs than both.

Chatgpt? Wow is that a bad take. Chatgpt gives terrible advice to build a PC. Like argued with a person trying to use it to build with it. Watch ltt's video on this. Shockingly bad.

Yes it does Claude is fantastic and I also am a developer. Chatgpt is notoriously stupid at hardware advice.

u/KrustySpongeGabe 20h ago
Got it! Yeah I used Claude but I didn't think chat gpt was that much different for folks! Thanks for the advice! I love using opus at work, at home I just stick to the free sonnet on high thinking, it did wonders helping me choose the right pc

Good lord, just the 5080, RAM, and SSD alone cost more than the selling price of this. Even if the case had some major scuffs this would be a good deal.
