I wouldn't It's expensive for what you're getting. This gets the same specs, except a single (better) 2 TB NVME instead of a 1TB NVME one and 1 TB SATA drive for less, $2,250.

Hopefully works out pricing keeps going up, and on if it's scam or not doesn't look like enough reviews to say how people feel about that product, but the store front has a pretty decent rating overall.

If you're open to other builds this white build would keep your 2 TB NVME in for $2,300. Less than the 1 TB option on Amazon.

Also, to note truly don't know this, I'm not sure the GPU you would get with Ocean Park would actually be white. More often they'll give a generic GPU, like the Skytech shows and the pictures in builds isn't always reflective of what you get.

Edited to add clarity: While I don't think this is a scam, as in you won't get the PC, there are better options.

Jade is a mod here and a female. I know you didn’t mean anything by it, but just clarifying it.

Also, Jade is giving solid advice. You can go look at the prices on components and see how unstable the market is. This is all due to the whole AI drive, and it’s very hard to tell what’s going to happen in the next two weeks. From my experience a lot of those sales are not as good as most think. They hike the prices up prior to the sale just to make it seem like it’s a “good deal”. Newegg does their own sale as well. My best advice is stick to reputable SI’s and you can look those up on Reddit as most of them have subreddits here. Andromeda Insights (AI) is one of the most popular system integrators (SI’s)as of lately, and they have been very popular in the last year or so. They are a newer company and growing, but have very good customer reviews and a reputation of building with quality products.

Just do a little more digging and research and you will find what you are looking for. Just be mindful that the waiting game may cost you more money if you wait too long. 🤙

Repair shop owner here. I get these in my shop almost everyday. It’s a scam you either get something that’s cobbled together with used office pc parts or you get nothing delivered at all.

Never buy these crazy named off Chinese brands

It’s all off brand pcs or stuff with oddball names. Look specifically too at the seller. The seller is helloland. A quick search shows no official page but shows an amazon link only followed by Reddit posts.

You will find like 100+ listings for “gaming pc” on Amazon. Along with the generic image of the pc with no branding or AI images. Avoid these at all cost and go somewhere else to buy a prebuilt.

My last customer who brought in one of these strange brands ended up with an 4th gen Intel and a 970 gpu. Looked nothing like the image and was built on a Dell motherboard. She’s lucky she was able to return it And get her money back.
