  Id go the photon 100%, the 9070xt is out performing the 5070ti in a lot of games, let alone the 5070 this system has. Also the nebula build is $100 less, so youre not only getting a better gpu, but its cheaper.

  well, grain of salt.. but for ~ $100 more we're offering you a newer B850 chipset, CL28 EXPO Hynix-A die, more premium PSU and the 007 Nvidia game bundle eligibility, shorter build times, brand name non generic case, a bit more optionality and if you can pick up, a bonus $149 gaming headset. If is a 9070XT vs a RTX5070 comparison so not applies to apples, but there's a lot of debate on which is the way to go. They also retail for similar prices depending on the models. A lot of debate on both sides of the isle as to which is better value. 9070XT wins in raw raster in most games, 5070 is generally considered to have the better drivers and software support and more favorable RTX suite of functionality vs AMD's equivalents. Different settings, different games, different resolutions… there's no clear winner in every scenario. We can say however, coil whine, driver jank and game bugs (especially around newly released titles before they roll out a few patches) are definitely a thing we get constant support enquiries about from RX 9070XT customers, and almost never from Nvidia customers. Thus why we tend to not offer them as defaults, only opt in options for the die-hards who have been convinced they are the way to go.

  at best, maybe it's slowed the rate of price rises, but it sure hasn't reversed or stopped them. maybe, the full force has yet to take effect, or maybe it never will… or maybe by this time next year they've discovered bidets more powerful than GPUs at running LLMs and TOTO has joined forces with Nvidia for the RTX Washlet 7000

  My similar 4070 Super build from 2024 is still going strong! +1 for Evatech

  Had some issues shipping builds in Dan A3 cases. It wasn't catastrophic but our target for damage in transit is absolute 0, and these were north of that.. Something about the layout form factor and thin frame… I'll do my best to get our product guys to add the Fractal North's. I think they were aiming for mATX cases in this offering, it keeps shipping prices down a little. If we go with ATX cases they have to priced not just on their cost diff, but + extra shipping cost too. Check back on the product page in ~ 10-15 minutes and we'll have them listed (🤞)
