It's been years (decades!) since I was in my custom PC building phase, so I'm going to ask you fellow Mastodon geeks for help here. My 16yo is building a gaming PC. He has done his research, and has the following in his cart (at the upper end of his budget). Any red flags here? #gamingpc #NZXT

Spec for a gaming PC. All the components.

Holy shit, seems like #NZXT needs money. This rent-a-PC deal is SO phenomenally bad it's hard to put in words. 😅

The cheapest subscription for 59$/mo only got an RTX 3050, (last-generation lower-end) a i5-12400KF (3 generations old mid-class) and equally basic specs. That's a 400$ PC.
So you get an outdated system you will never own for a price that isn't even worth half a year of payments.

From a company that also sells product which may put your house on fire.

Garbage.
