Corsair ONE i300 Compact Gaming PC (Intel Core i9-12900K CPU, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Graphics, 32GB Vengeance DDR5 Memory, Thunderbolt 4, Windows 11 Pro) Black

It's crazy expensive. I still feel like a chump for paying so much when I could have put the components together myself and saved a lot. Thing is though , I've never built a pc and I was very nervous about buying a few grand worth of components and then failing to get the damn thing to boot.On the pc building youtube vids it seems to happen all the time. What do they do? reach for their shelves of spares and replace the components until it works. Not an option for me. I still feel like an idiot though. I could have saved a grand at least and got a great pre-built pc in a regular case that performs great. I could have saved even more if I had the nerve to build one myself.It's so good though , I almost feel ok about spending so much on a pc. I mean this thing is an effing Bugatti Chiron. Every single thing about it is amazing.DDR5 32gb 4800 MHz RAM , Awesome PCie 4.0 2tb Samsung 980 Pro , The 3.2 gen 2 is a game changer for external drive transfer speeds - 400MB/s stable.No expert on GPUs but I play AAA games and the game load times have halved at least. RDR2 60FPS 4k on ultra . Looks and plays incredibly.As for the 12th gen i9 CPU , it's way more than I'll ever need and I feel like a chump for buying it.I was concerned about the thermals until I saw a review that mentioned that cinebench and the other youtube tests are way more taxing than anything I'm likely to do. I've checked the temps while gaming and they're all around 60C with a very quiet fan . Barely noticeable.It's a real looker too and very small for such a beast. I do rather love it.I dunno , the world could end tomorrow. Why bother saving , just blow it all on a overpriced crazy cool pc and have some fun while you still can.

extremely expensive for what you are getting. nowhere near the £4000 price tag

Great hardware at a premium price, works out of the box and has kept a stable temperature even after playing a AAA game.The size of the case is so small it fits neatly into my backpack, great for on-the-go power computing.Unfortunately the "windows mafia"/"lobby group" have enforced UEFI! which does not play well with any other OS's. Can anyone remind me again why UEFI is necessary? for a gamer? for anyone who doesn't operate a datacentre?I struggled to install Arch Linux on this beast with UEFI mobo saying no memory(what the actual!!!) and windows just saying I don't trust your other OS so NO!(WTF) trust! sirs, trust is a 2 way street and m$ has failed rising from all fours to enter any realm of truthiness.I don't think windows should be making decisions on what OS That I install on my premium priced hardware; which I spent months if not years working hard to afford.So I ripped that untrustworthy and unworthy bag of excrement(window$) from the 2TB nvme and proceeded to install arch.Also ERP is employed, I don't live in California, I don't even live in the US of A, but luckily it can be disabled in the BIOS.My Steam games now fly gracefully, start up so quick it would break your neck.Movies run lovely, twitch and youtube are a delight.I would ask corsair to promote independent OS's and not enforce mafia style tactics to keep an already Kraken sized behemoth in relevancy.I would have granted more stars but for windows strong-arming their fee-fees upon my hard work.

What a Futuristic design and Performance was amazing 👌, i have this for more than a month , so far 100% happy with it, it’s worth buying folks!

You can build this brand new for pretty much half the price.

Its got too be a joke, i can buy the same specs system for half the price. There trying too over change you. The price of PC parts are going down fast in about a year you buy the same spec system for about less then half that price.

Do not buy this if you’re new to gaming. Get on PC Part Picker and you can get all of these components for 50% less. Or even build a £4K PC and you can get an unreal performance over this one. Can build this for £1500-£2000 if you’re buying parts at the right time.

If you have 4000 to spend on a gaming pc you may as well wait for the next line of GPU's and buy the best one
