Seems like a good price for this budget PC. Can’t see many RTX 3060 ti desktops for this price.

sorted byYou do have the limitations of half L3 with the 5600G and that 8GB Ram Card, low start up drive but atleast u can run windows on the faster drive, n old hd set up to give it game storage.
Good price for £630.00, (has one been down to £585 but the chance of that happening again, i dont think so) previous deals that cost less then this offer overall lower performance now, like the standard 3060, 6650XT area which u can do via 5600G/5500 in cpu, and inc them into mainstream 5600x.
and we got areas at £700 which that would have improvments over this CPU or GPU or better other items, cos were spending money.
but for £630 very nice deal.
£300 card
£50 Case model
£60 Board
£40 PSU
£35 Ram
256GB £15
1TB £30
cpu £110
= the cost.
High CL Ram, not high watts psu, vega CPU 3.0, low type board, and we could pick well if £300 card then why not 6700XT that is the best £300 card going, well prices on that card are up atm, and the prebuilt where it does reflect to be a £300 breakdown cos they was made in that time zone, were forced into a higher CPU, were forced into higher storage, with a higher cost board, which then stacking all that together, which then turns out to be an £800 system.
which was that palicomp 6700XT 5700X B550 Wifi, and then the next closest one to that by and keeping to 6700XT is the awd one, but that has a build fee, unless u take there monitor promo which is the ultra wide deal i posted last week
palicomp does have the 4060 at £670.... that is more cost, that does have the X then the G cpu, higher board spec, more main stream ram on cl rating, 1TB over the 256/1 that does work out worthy of the £40 upto that point, but this has 3060Ti over 4060
Someone after a no frillz, £630 System. really nice, and good find by the Opper.
and lets not forget; this is AN AMAZON PRODUCT!. (ok its hp, its sold by amazon) thats gonna appeal to a hell of lot of folks which is self explained. (edited)
The case is a hot box unfortunately, though I do like the slim design and understated case lighting.
Proprietary gpu variant / B550 board etc which makes selling parts harder if you want to upgrade.
You could build this cheaper tbh.
The price was right for this about 2 years ago but thenee gens are out so it's overpriced IMO (but I only buy a good deal).
There's a YouTuber who shows how to tweak on these to make them workable etc
There are a few relatively easy tweaks to tame heat/noisy but the most annoying one, for me, is if you want to replace the CPU cooler, you have to remove a backplate that is glued on to the back of the motherboard, which can risk damage. I'm not too worried about a 3060TI but with the more powerful cards, though I don't mind disassembling them and using paste and pad kits to correct crappy designs to tame noise and throttling... it's a bit much; I really hoped this HP model would be long gone, by now.
For me, given the choice, I'd much rather have the money to put toward a much better boutique build from Palicomp, etc, that is relatively fine tuned to game on, the bios far more tweakable to get the best out of the components. I mean, no 'competitive gamer' would touch an Omen, or at least especially the entry-level models.
I do like the aesthetics of the HP Omen case, though, that Windows is included, and it's easy enough to sell and replace the motherboard and PSU, which solves a host of irritations, including the fact that for some reason, though they've fitted a 5600G that has integrated graphics, the HP motherboard doesn't have a graphics out! Which was a bit of a nasty surprise for people who bought these to sell the graphics card during the crypto mining craze, with the intention of using integrated graphics.
Or at least the motherboard didn't have a graphics out when I last looked at it, it has been a year, now, perhaps HP mercifully made some revisions. Built to a price with some frustrating choices. I do like that case, though, and I love tweaking - there are some good videos on that, ones where the reviewer purchased it with their own money, rather than writing a simpering suck-up review in the hope HP will send them more review samples - but, again, if you want to realise the full spec of the components and even tweak a little, maybe look to Palicomp, etc, surely something with a 3060TI or 4060 or RX 6650 wouldn't cost much more and be a bit more worthy of the 'Gaming' title. That not particularly well designed but great-looking HP Omen case, though!
Worth upgrading from a intel ivy bridge core i7-3770 cpu with 16gb ram and gtx 680 + water cooled?

The 5600G isn't hard to cool.
but take a look at this recent deal here:
hotukdeals.com/dea…760
currently shing then some of garbo posted.
depsite being a 8Core CPU, it is a slower all around CPU then a 5600G 6Core.
The Mobile 3060 6GB system is lower then the desktop 3060Ti 8GB.
15inch screen 144hz 1080 in the laptop, which u can easily £109 for 24 inch 144hz 1080 or go the alt way of 75hz 1440 around that price thats on huk, or spend more on higher hz 1440 for future. £20 mouse / keyboard on amazong, wireless package out of BNM for a 10er is better than some plastic laptops lol.
so were talking £50 more.... but were getting a non mobile system thats better. but we dont have the mobile aspect.
Your gonna need somewhere to sit, and most find it uncomfortable to game right on a laptop via armchair. so to be honest im gonna ignore that aspect, unless its kinda low board sandbox type, ...
obvious there is laptops at much more cost that offer higher performance then the one tag, but that is a rare diamond post at this spend and most are higher cost, so its gonna be a considerable jump.
and the same goes for this desktop, few alt posted deals about near to this spec, but to beat it fully on this or the alt ones, another £150 down, then u can take the desktop to a much higher spec.
for a £1000+ budget we talking desktop of Ryzen 5 7600 / 16GB / 4070 thats under the name on the 17th January get A £150 monitor. thats gonna be better then any laptop at £1150.00
for a 1k budget i posted last week a 6700XT 5600X with a 34inch ultra wide monitor, which is great 1k sim idea for racers.
unless u really need to mobile aspect, desktop is better, but either market u got to shop about.
Desktops/ laptops = Garbage price systems, unless u research n deal hunt. its a bad market out there.
4070 builds for a grand already... much better cpu and card, dunno why people who try buy gaming pcs penny pinch and then end up with a terrible experience and pay twice in the end!
