Can I get some thoughts on this computer:
LINK

quote:

10th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-10700F processor(8-Core, 16M Cache, 2.9GHz to 4.8GHz)
Windows 10 Home, 64-bit, English
NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3070 8GB GDDR6
16GB, 2x8GB, DDR4, 2933Mhz
512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive
Killer™ Wi-Fi 6 AX1650i (2x2) 802.11ax Wireless and Bluetooth 5.1
Dell Multimedia Keyboard-KB216 Black (English)
Dell Optical Mouse - MS116 Black
500W Chassis with Bezel and Internal Lighting + Clear Door


Cost would actually be $1600+ tax after coupon. It's looks like a better deal than any of the 3000 series desktops available on Newegg right now.

I did not realize the 6800 beats the shite out of the 3070 so badly. What is the price difference?

6800 is $80 more according to techpowerup.

I would be so pissed if Amazon sent me a new CPU in a damn soft mailer. They've been doing this a ton with Ryzen and so many cases of bent and broken pins. What a waste.

That's a great mobo. Bought one for my 9600k a while back, and it's been flawless.

Ignorant question here but how can you quantify mobo performance

It's mostly about features more so then performance. The higher end boards have better cooling and higher quality parts for ocing, but it's mostly about features
