Yall see Angry Joe got a PC with 2 GTX 980s in SLI in it and a 6 core processor with 32GBs of DDR4 RAM? What the hell was he thinking? Nobody really needs all that. These Youtube cats be blowing crazy loot on excessive PCs they'll never need the specs for. That was like when DarksydePhil spent $3000 on a 6 core PC with a GTX 780ti in it last summer.
the stupid part is he bought an Alienware. he probably got some kind of deal (he says so much), but the retail price for that thing is $4000. you could probably build something similar for half that
and IMO that case is ugly as fukk
that's around $3k actually if you build it yourself (a little more depending on what you put in in). I think the case is ugly as fukk though too. Supposedly it's good for heating issues though (those old alienware's were notoriously bad for overheating apparently).the stupid part is he bought an Alienware. he probably got some kind of deal (he says so much), but the retail price for that thing is $4000. you could probably build something similar for half that

I just gotta say GreenManGaming VIP is the shyt. I kinda wanna preorder Mortal Kombat X and Batman. Both are only $43. I buy all new games there now. Their sale prices are outrageous on new games!

the two 980's are around $1000. it's hard to say how much the rest is, because there's a lot of wiggle room depending on the price of the mobo, psu, etc. but that is where most pre-builts will try to cut corners, so I wouldn't assume everything is top-of-the-line
