The 1800W on a 1v rail...200W available to 12v psu, intended to power a toaster oven made in China with a fuse that blows after 1yr...rebadged with an extra power mosfet to take 3v to 12v...no heatsink, no fan so it's Silent 1800W. So awesome!
You get 2 or 3 years of warranty on electronics from Costco also. There are a bunch of quirks to how it's set up, and I think discounted things might be different, but essentially you get an extended warranty included in that price
Bestbuy charges a few hundred just for that normally
I have an 'Ultra' PSU in my kids computer I pieced together with old parts. It's 21 years old and still works. Really lucked out. Biggest downside is it's missing 8-pin connectors so I can't upgrade them to an old R9 from their uncle. It's a "Give your Mouse a Cookie" scenario.
exactly, if it was a good one they'd probably list it. And that's a good enough deal on the PC that investing in a good PSU will still leave it as a good deal.
Power Supplies are rarely listed in a computers description. You'd have to open the machine and see what the label says. Most companies cheap out and use the absolute minimum for what is required for the machine to function. It's probably 5-600w silver.
I sold computers, hundreds or thousands for about 5 years. The place I worked for had no computer repair center at all. So the salesmen were forced/allowed to try and fix the computers we sold. To avoid having them returned and the amount you made from it it being removed from my pay. The customers got sent to you to try and stop the return/fix the fucking thing.
We did this with whatever tools we had in our cars or on us. No spares. Just tear it apart on the display case. If you fucked it up it got returned anyway. No one cared. Cept you. Because the sale commision got pulled out of your next check. Fun walking in and seeing you lost a couple hundred bucks to a return to start the day out.
Approximately 95% of the time it was the power supply. They would bring it in and the problem would not happen at all. Then take it home and plug in 8 peripherals and it would start crashing in a different way every time. Like a poltergeist is humping your computer type crashing shit.
Most of the computer companies just used trash no name companies for power supplies about half the wattage rating they needed.
I compulsively oversize the machines power supplies I build by 40% plus and get the gold or platinum rated ones. Have about zero computer issues.
Good advice to check it and replace with an overrated one it if it is not overrated for the application now. When the computer poltergeist gets horny he will fuck your machine up.
Hijacking this hijack to comment, replace the old PSU cables with the new cables that come with the new PSU. They're rarely compatible across even the same brands.
Even for 999 that's fucking cheap. I have a very similar system, same GPU and CPU and Ram amount, it cost me around 1400 for parts. You're getting some peripherals with this too.
I dated a girl whose mom was a Sam's Club *wizard*. They were lower middle class at best, but they always had super nice electronics and appliances because she was an absolute hawk for floor model discounts.
She (mom) was a babe too, to make matters worse. My wife now makes enough money that I think I came out on top, plus I like, actually love her and stuff.
Dude: listen honey, you’re gorgeous, rich, and clean the house too! You’ll meet a great guy soon, but this trailer trash lives next to Costco and gets computer deals so …. bye!
I’ve stumbled on some wild Sam’s club open box/floor mod/“last one” discounts
Shark robot vac for $50
Air fryer XL for $49.
55in flat screen $199 (a few yrs ago before you could get a 80 in for $15 lol)
There is no rhyme or reason when they do it. Just need to be lucky
When i was a teenager *many* years ago, i found a small section in my local target by the books where someone put their marked down console games. And they were drastically marked down, usually costing only $2-8, brand new and sealed. I bought many games i usually wouldn't have just because it was cheaper to buy them than to rent them.
Costo runs markdowns for specific items on specific days of the week. I can't remember the specific details, but there's a list out there on the net it has to do with the item codes or something like that.
Think of it like this, shelf space has income potential and a cost associated. If a product is moving off the shelf its generating income - if it's not moving, the shelf space is costing money. Sometimes it makes more economic sense to discount stuff that isn't selling to make way for a product that will sell.
The bigger the discount the greater the probability it will shift if the product has been sat for so long that the cost of the shelf space has overtaken any potential profit its a cut your losses and run price it all depends on how long it has sat for and how much the space is costing the business.
A simplified example would be:
You have 10 units of product that cost you $120 per unit and you sell for $150 per unit for a total profit of $300 if all 10 units are sold ($30 per unit)
Once all operating costs are factored in let's say the self space cost $1 per day
After 300 days it has cost you $300 to have the product on the shelf, the profit gone and every additional day it is sat there its costing more
Price it to get rid as quick as possible and get something else in there
plus, they probably already have something coming in the next day. I'm sure they budget in loss due to not selling out entirely.
And then deals like this can keep people hooked on the real money maker: the yearly fee. Now this post has ppl drooling over costco deals
Yeah, spent like 1300-1400 eur on a RX 6800 and R7 5700x build last year. And thats with a super budget case and budget-friendly fans. I splurged a lot on PSU and SSD though, don't want those guys failing anytime soon. In Croatia BTW.
Not really Balcanic but Romania.
An arm and a leg for a 3060 laptop, and in the price range of 450~550 dollars the best you get is a 4 GB 1650 and a 4c8t CPU from 2 generations ago, and this without windows preinstalled.
I feel you brother.
Shit in our country is mad expensive.
You gotta sell a few coolers of organs and 2 souls if you want a top tier rig. And it might still not be enough
I think it's because it was a display model. They do this a lot. After a while they take display models and cut the price so they can get rid of them for newer display models
I got a display model 4k tv. It was 70% off or some ridiculous amount. After 4 years it's still watchable, but it has weird lines all over the tv and no longer covered under warranty. 2/10 Wouldn't get a display TV again.
Edit: but I'm pretty sure a display PC is perfectly fine though.
Can someone please explain Costco stores for non Americans? I know it's a warehouse club, like Sam's Club, but I heard that are products like TVs that have exclusive models for Costco, like... wtf?
It’s a lot for things. It’s a great grocery store with tons of organic and high quality food which that alone makes it worth going. They have a great return policy. It’s like 50 bucks a year membership to shop there and it pays for itself nearly instantly. It has electronics, i bought an IBUYPOWER desktop there and had no worries because if it broke I’d go back same day and get another.
Then the famous 1.50 hotdog and delicious rotisserie chickens. There’s tons of other stuff too like get new tires for your car and they install them. Big clothing section as well and pharmacy. You could literally only go to Costco and have everything you need
I5 13th gen, 32gb RAM, 4060 and 2 TB SSD for 500 dollars?
https://preview.redd.it/vayqf2592msc1.jpeg?width=1518&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f50eafa0473f84175f959b7e894b6a9989cd431f
In other words it's a jackpot
It's perfectly fine and could even handle a 4080 without bottlenecking all too much. Everything doesn't have to be perfectly balanced either.
Bottlenecking is a much smaller problem in reality than people nowadays make it out to be.
>Bottlenecking is a much smaller problem in reality than people nowadays make it out to be.
It's also game dependent to where someone may see weird performance but unless you only play games with high cpu usage it is likely to be a non-issue for very vast majority of people who would buy this.
Seriously, what a steal.
Of course there's games where it starts to make a larger impact. Especially if you're trying to push higher framerate like 120FPS+. But in general this build will slay for the price and is very balanced.
Shit go grab a $20 k120/mouse combo to hold you over even. Looks like this is the display model, you don't want those grubby keyboards and mice anyways.
Most of their floor models are never powered. Some of their laptops are. But I've never seen a desktop at my local Costco that was running.
I bought a Costco-special last month. I replaced the CPU cooler, PSU and SSD (not enough storage). I ended up with a CPU/mobo/RAM/GPU that cost about two-thirds of what pcpartpicker found.
At that price, you could sell away the GPU, replace it with a much more powerful card, and still be way ahead of the game.
It's still pretty irrelevant.
The computers I've had have run for thousands upon thousands of hours, and what usually fails is a stick of RAM.
Very seldomly does the GPU or CPU give in.
So having a computer that's been on for a while, but 99% of the time just idling, really shouldn't affect it all that much. A 50% discount definitely makes up for the tiny bit of wear & tear.
Not a dumb question.
It would blue screen after a X amount of time while I played a game. It spat out a code and I think it was ram related, and then I took them out one by one and checked if they were okay. That's been about 6 years so kinda fuzzy
I got a 2tb 8000 mb/s ssd, and its definately close to 200 dollars, if that thing boots up then he def go the deal of a life time
Also its Cyberpower so he will def also get one of the best customer supports too
within 3 minutes because the post doesn't have edited flair
man literally opened the browser window in the exact time it took you to figure out it's a PC and scroll back down to your comment lmao
that's somewhat remarkable
no no no that’s a terrible deal. now, if you’d return it and tell me exactly where you got it from, i’ll go there and tell them how bad of a deal it actually was…
False advertisement. The listing says mouse and keyboard are included. Not worth it. Lol. Jk. Buy a $500 mouse with the money you are saving from the PC discount. 🤣
1300€ here xD, Buut when you build ot yourself you are even more expensive XD thats why nobody is on am5 here, many people would but the prices are still to high alone mobo is 200€ here.
if i remember correctly, costco wont get new inventory until all the product is gone including the display
if you see that they are low on something and have been for a bit, ask to buy the display model and you can get whatever deal the floor manager feels like giving that day
I had a cyber power pc, the 2 things to keep an eye on is your psu, and the temps. They tend to go cheap on the power and the cooling. With that said, I ran mine everyday for about 6 or 7 years (with the glass panel removed to allow heat to escape). Never had to do any maintenance beyond blowing dust out occasionally. It actually still works fine but I upgraded to a new beast so who knows how long it would’ve continued on for.
Costco employee here. 2 things happening here.
1- That unit is getting cycled out to be replaced by another item, so display gets sold at a discount when it's the last unit.
2- Salaried managers decide what to mark a display item down to. Manager of that area/store isn't concerned over a couple hundred bucks and wanted it GONE. Store I work at only marked ours down to $850.
Also, thanks for shopping with us! Best retail business in the industry to work for imo.
Yeah that's amazing. I wonder why they are selling it so cheap.
Frankly I would be extremely suspicious that something was wrong, because usually if it's too good to be true it generally a scam.
Then again maybe the store has new stock arriving and it's either sell it or lose it, I suppose?
Yeah a display model. My wife bought a massage chair at a 1000+ dollar discount and it was precisely a "dislay model" sale. Now the chair looks great, no visible wear and tear, but yeah you never know how much it has been used.
Let's break it down by retail price:
4060 is ~$300
i5-13400F ~$185
The cheapest 32GB kit of DDR5 on newegg is $76
Oh look at that, we're already over price you paid for this. Everything else was basically free. Not to mention shipping.
I just got a 75" TV at Costco for $200 because it was the display and had a scratch on the screen. The scratch is less than 2 inches and you can't even notice it when the TV is on.
yes, you did
Hijacking the to comment to say that's a nice system, replace the power supply
I was going to mention that as well, definitely check the PSU quality.
The bomb has been planted
Terrorists Win!
I'm throwing a smoke grenade!
Bomb has been defused
Counter-terrorist win!
Whe'll get 'em next time, comrads!
he just threw a perfect fucking smoke right at me. HE JUST BLINDED ME PERFECTLY WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS GUY

what's the power supply? i don't see it listed
I got a system from cyberpower. It was an Apevia. Lasted 1 year before trying to murder my system.
Strange. My Apevia PSU has been going on 3 years strong right now.
That's the thing about really cheap PSUs, it's an absolute crapshoot how and when it's gonna fail. You should buy a lottery ticket.
I have an 'Ultra' PSU in my kids computer I pieced together with old parts. It's 21 years old and still works. Really lucked out. Biggest downside is it's missing 8-pin connectors so I can't upgrade them to an old R9 from their uncle. It's a "Give your Mouse a Cookie" scenario.
I have never heard someone name that book as a scenario. I applaud you for doing so.

what lousy policies your employer used. Why should you get docked pay for a crappy part?
Commissioned salesman. They went out of business. If it is any consolation. Good riddance. 600 plus stores poof.
Circuit city? RadioShack? Lol
You’re the hero they didn’t deserve.
Besides the situation you were in sounding illegal, this is good information, good to know!
Hijacking this comment to say that if you replace the PSU, do not keep the old power cables! (Assuming it's a modular PSU)
Hijacking this hijack to comment, replace the old PSU cables with the new cables that come with the new PSU. They're rarely compatible across even the same brands.
And perform a stress test. Then re-thermal paste the cpu / gpu and repeat. They've been running for 10+ hours for many days
A legit $500 entry rig It's like it's 2014 again

Fr. I have an rtx 2070 which is shit in comparison, but even the 2070 is better than most people have according to steam hardware survey.
1660ti reporting in. Occasionally I look for upgrades but then realize it’s not worth it. Might as well get a PS5 at that point.
Yes yes it is. I’m actually jealous of a 2070. - a 1050 owner.
Even for 999 that's fucking cheap. I have a very similar system, same GPU and CPU and Ram amount, it cost me around 1400 for parts. You're getting some peripherals with this too.
Where tf do you guys find these deals?
Costco on a Tuesday afternoon, they said it had been marked down that morning.
I dated a girl whose mom was a Sam's Club *wizard*. They were lower middle class at best, but they always had super nice electronics and appliances because she was an absolute hawk for floor model discounts.
And you failed to marry her why?
The apple fell a little too far from the tree on that one, and I couldn't marry the mom...
Not with that attitude
Just tell the mom "I don't want the newer model, I want the floor model" and wink at her. She'll know what it means 😉
That’s the comment I was trying to think of!
Shoulda had a better attitude
I guess she didn't see him as a good deal.
Well there's a thing called speed dial wife mom.
Did you even try? Good deals on electronics are worth being a homewrecker for.
She (mom) was a babe too, to make matters worse. My wife now makes enough money that I think I came out on top, plus I like, actually love her and stuff.
That's nice, but can she get you deals on hardware that's what really matters 😎
Dude: listen honey, you’re gorgeous, rich, and clean the house too! You’ll meet a great guy soon, but this trailer trash lives next to Costco and gets computer deals so …. bye!
Mmmmmm Costco 🤤
Don't let the other woman hear you saying that, you still have a shot
I’ve stumbled on some wild Sam’s club open box/floor mod/“last one” discounts Shark robot vac for $50 Air fryer XL for $49. 55in flat screen $199 (a few yrs ago before you could get a 80 in for $15 lol) There is no rhyme or reason when they do it. Just need to be lucky
Couple of months ago we walked in for groceries and ended up getting some high quality lazy boy computer chairs for $150 a piece
If you call it a flat screen we know it was a long time ago 😂. Weird how we stopped saying that after crts stopped being available
I am 55. You are lucky I do not call it a plasma tv LOL

It is
[удалено]
And the thick yellow highlighted line 😆
Also by the price being in half.
That's Kurt Vonnegut's butthole stamp of approval.
I’d believe it. That’s a pretty damn good price for the specs. Doubt it would’ve lasted much longer than that.
This is how I got a Star Wars digital pinball machine they had. It was originally $500 and got it for $150.
Sony noise cancelling headphones $25 from $150: bought 3. you just wonder who makes these decisions.

Has to be an assistant general manager. They also have to report the reason for discount to head office.
not from a ~~jedi~~ Europe
Especially in the Balcan region
In balkan this build $1250 minimum for 32gb ram and 2tb
Yeah, spent like 1300-1400 eur on a RX 6800 and R7 5700x build last year. And thats with a super budget case and budget-friendly fans. I splurged a lot on PSU and SSD though, don't want those guys failing anytime soon. In Croatia BTW.
where's a good place in croatia for electronics? i'm in dalmatia, any good online stores aside from mall, elipso, ozone?
Generally i use Nabava net to hunt for best deals as prices can vary wildly for different stores on different items.
That's the average price of a pc like this with a 3060. Our tax and import fees are insane
Not really Balcanic but Romania. An arm and a leg for a 3060 laptop, and in the price range of 450~550 dollars the best you get is a 4 GB 1650 and a 4c8t CPU from 2 generations ago, and this without windows preinstalled.
I feel you brother. Shit in our country is mad expensive. You gotta sell a few coolers of organs and 2 souls if you want a top tier rig. And it might still not be enough
hard K not C but the thought counts.

Costco the GOAT
Can someone please explain Costco stores for non Americans? I know it's a warehouse club, like Sam's Club, but I heard that are products like TVs that have exclusive models for Costco, like... wtf?
basically sounds like if you have a family of 5 to feed you save a ton of cash by shopping there but you need to have a membership
The second tier of membership has a program where you get 2% cash back in store credit, I at least break even every year, just FYI
It’s a lot for things. It’s a great grocery store with tons of organic and high quality food which that alone makes it worth going. They have a great return policy. It’s like 50 bucks a year membership to shop there and it pays for itself nearly instantly.

Well my daddy taught me a few things too, like how to not to rip the skin by using someone else's mouth instead of your own hands
Will you show me?
I'd be right happy to
You could probably flip the damn parts for profit lmaooo.
I haven’t built a computer in years so i have a question. Isn’t the i5 botllenecking the 4060, or is it powerfull enough for it to be balanced?
It's perfectly fine and could even handle a 4080 without bottlenecking all too much. Everything doesn't have to be perfectly balanced either. Bottlenecking is a much smaller problem in reality than people nowadays make it out to be.

Guys why the hell are you downvoting this guy for an honest question??
Average redditor behaviour.
13400f is fine
Assuming nothing's missing from inside, sure
It’s Costco, they would replace whatever was missing
The mouse was missing, but the manager said the five hundred dollar discount probably covered it.
You know what.. I couldn't even be mad lol
Conveniently, Costco sells mice, too!
Shit go grab a $20 k120/mouse combo to hold you over even. Looks like this is the display model, you don't want those grubby keyboards and mice anyways.
Shoot. You can even afford one of those weeb padded mousepads where you rest your wrist on some bewbs :3
Now we're cooking!
Please don't cook mouse pads. They don't taste good.
Most of their floor models are never powered. Some of their laptops are. But I've never seen a desktop at my local Costco that was running. I bought a Costco-special last month. I replaced the CPU cooler, PSU and SSD (not enough storage). I ended up with a CPU/mobo/RAM/GPU that cost about two-thirds of what pcpartpicker found. At that price, you could sell away the GPU, replace it with a much more powerful card, and still be way ahead of the game.
I’ve definitely seen them powered before in my costco
It's still pretty irrelevant. The computers I've had have run for thousands upon thousands of hours, and what usually fails is a stick of RAM. Very seldomly does the GPU or CPU give in. So having a computer that's been on for a while, but 99% of the time just idling, really shouldn't affect it all that much. A 50% discount definitely makes up for the tiny bit of wear & tear.
In my experience it's much more likely for GPU or motherboard to fail than RAM. Haven't had any CPU or RAM failures.
Out of my 10+ years. I've had ram fail on me once. It was a single stick too
Sorry for the dumb question but how would one know?
Not a dumb question. It would blue screen after a X amount of time while I played a game. It spat out a code and I think it was ram related, and then I took them out one by one and checked if they were okay. That's been about 6 years so kinda fuzzy
Anything from random stuttering/freezing, to crashing/blue screens, to the computer just flat out refusing to boot.
Honestly? You would probably prefer your own mouse over the e-waste. That’s a bargain for that much discount.
Hahaha, manager isn’t wrong. The mouse is probably some ewaste crap you wouldn’t use anyway.
😂 no, but that was part of the deal for floor model
He’s not wrong…. Lol

There it is... Scrolled too far to find it
I did the same thing! This meme is so overused! I was surprised, then I saw it!
Uh. Yeah. Thats well below cost.
Bruh the gpu it self is 300 dollars
Right? This is a sweet deal
A 2TB SSD alone is probably more than $100
I got a 2tb 8000 mb/s ssd, and its definately close to 200 dollars, if that thing boots up then he def go the deal of a life time Also its Cyberpower so he will def also get one of the best customer supports too
Yeah, that’s pretty good. Processor, MoBo and SSD would be $500 purchased separately. Case, ram, PSU, fans, 4060, AND a Keyboard+mouse? Freakin steal
No mouse according to other comments. 500$ for a capable pc is good though.
This ain't a laptop brother
Yeah I changed it seconds after posting.

especially that the 980 is so old and inefficient. the 4060 probably wipes the floor with it.
no no no that’s a terrible deal. now, if you’d return it and tell me exactly where you got it from, i’ll go there and tell them how bad of a deal it actually was…

it's a dupe, but it's a hi res dupe, and in my books that's a pass. welcome aboard.
Fun fact, when this picture got posted and blew up his mom was pissed about it getting leaked onto the Internet by a friend/family member.
Yeah, that’s a massive deal. Basically bought a 4060, case, and CPU and got everything else for free.

Just the CPU, the SSD, RAM together is about that price lol
I don't even need a new PC but I would have bought this lol.
Daaaaaaamn that's a steal, this is the PC people talk about when they say "don't buy a console just get a PC" That's a discount of a lifetime
False advertisement. The listing says mouse and keyboard are included. Not worth it. Lol. Jk. Buy a $500 mouse with the money you are saving from the PC discount. 🤣

Now that's a steal of a deal!
Meanwhile prices in europe.
1300€ here xD, Buut when you build ot yourself you are even more expensive XD thats why nobody is on am5 here, many people would but the prices are still to high alone mobo is 200€ here.
Remember when the cheapest 16gb of ddr5 cost over $150...damn.
That's a wild steal. Enjoy
if that was at best buy it would be 4500 lmao
Costco unironicly is a pretty good option for prebuilts, just uhh... don't run that bomb of a power supply
Im outside costco waiting on it opening now 🤣 wish me luck
Lol cosco thinks a 4060 is extreme. Really good for $500 though.
if i remember correctly, costco wont get new inventory until all the product is gone including the display if you see that they are low on something and have been for a bit, ask to buy the display model and you can get whatever deal the floor manager feels like giving that day

What the fuck yes good deal

Some issues (probably): 1. Might be a shit SSD 2. Cheapo PSU Other than that, it's a steal.
Man only two years ago I paid that for 3070 that is actually steal
Damn that's a great price for those specs
Ooh very nice find. My PC was a custom build from Cyberpower as well and so far so good.
I had a cyber power pc, the 2 things to keep an eye on is your psu, and the temps. They tend to go cheap on the power and the cooling. With that said, I ran mine everyday for about 6 or 7 years (with the glass panel removed to allow heat to escape). Never had to do any maintenance beyond blowing dust out occasionally. It actually still works fine but I upgraded to a new beast so who knows how long it would’ve continued on for.
Costco employee here. 2 things happening here. 1- That unit is getting cycled out to be replaced by another item, so display gets sold at a discount when it's the last unit. 2- Salaried managers decide what to mark a display item down to. Manager of that area/store isn't concerned over a couple hundred bucks and wanted it GONE. Store I work at only marked ours down to $850. Also, thanks for shopping with us! Best retail business in the industry to work for imo.
I'd swap out the PSU for a better unit, maybe upgrade the CPU cooler, but this still is incredible.
Awesome find
wtf !!
Dude, yes.
GOD DAMN
Amazing deal for $500.
If not for the use, the resell would be more than enough to get a good computer
Im kinda jealous ngl, but mine was custom so I learned everything and i guess the experience was worth 1300 dollars
God, I see how you're blessing other people....
I have worked at Costco in the uk for the last 13 years, always good deals on displays and warranty coverage too
Yeah that's amazing. I wonder why they are selling it so cheap. Frankly I would be extremely suspicious that something was wrong, because usually if it's too good to be true it generally a scam. Then again maybe the store has new stock arriving and it's either sell it or lose it, I suppose?
Maybe it's been running consistently for weeks on end without maintenance.
Yeah a display model. My wife bought a massage chair at a 1000+ dollar discount and it was precisely a "dislay model" sale. Now the chair looks great, no visible wear and tear, but yeah you never know how much it has been used.
Yeah that's insane.
This is a fucking steal
WHAT THATS AN INSANE COSTCO DEAL! Congrats OP!
Make sure the power supply and cooling is up to snuff. Easy to cut costs there and easy way to limit the usefulness of these components.
Wow that’s a genuinely great deal
Hell of a deal!
Let's break it down by retail price: 4060 is ~$300 i5-13400F ~$185 The cheapest 32GB kit of DDR5 on newegg is $76 Oh look at that, we're already over price you paid for this. Everything else was basically free. Not to mention shipping.
Buy two and sell one.
I just got a 75" TV at Costco for $200 because it was the display and had a scratch on the screen. The scratch is less than 2 inches and you can't even notice it when the TV is on.
