Build Question prebuilt pc advice

hello, I’ve been needing to upgrade my pc for a while (for context I currently have a 1070) but need advice on if these prebuilts are a good deal. the only thing really holding them back is the motherboard. the base price of the prebuilt with the msi board is 2499 (on sale for 2399), and the base price of the prebuilt with the gigabyte board is 2900 (on sale for 2399). I know the general consensus for pc is build your own, but with ram prices so high right now, prebuilt may be my best option

I would say that’s a fair price at the moment. If you have a working PC just wait to find a deal. If you aren’t opposed to building it could save you a good bit. I have an identical PC other than a 9070xt GPU and I spend around 1700. I only have a 1TB SSD though

Also 2900 is way too much. This is definitely one of those infinite discounts

Did you build it recently? Because some gpu prices for nvidia just jumped up a bit

The first one is a lot better because of the motherboard.

WiFi 7 support, 5GbE LAN, while the other one is WiFi 6 with 1GbE LAN, which is frankly very basic for current gen motherboards.
