Before you balk at the price - Godzbargainers hear me out!

I've done a rough parts calculation based on low-tier components and this is actually a cracking deal for those too lazy to build and want an easy purchase to game asap. This R11 comes with an awesome monitor, and some decent peripherals, albeit very gamer orientated.

i7-10700KF - $450
RTX 3080 - $2000
512GB+2TB - $200
RAM - $100 (Looks to be Kingston Hyper X)
PSU - $200 (From my research, I believe it's a 1000W Gold Efficiency PSU by Delta who make some decent PSUs normally aimed at servers)
AW2720HF - $550 (https://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/alienware-27-gaming-monitor-… - it's actually not on sale right now, normal RRP is $900 but you can wait every few weeks to pick it up under $600 so I have used this price)
Mouse - $77.50 (https://deals.dell.com/en-au/productdetail/82i8 - currently on Sale)
Headset - $105.50 (https://deals.dell.com/en-au/productdetail/82hu - currently on sale)
Keyboard - $194.50 (https://deals.dell.com/en-au/productdetail/82ie - currently on sale)

Total - $3900 approximately in parts, not including the CPU cooler (watercooled), the motherboard or the case. It also doesn't include the heartache of stuffing up your build because you don't know what you are doing, or hours of troubleshooting because you plugged your HDMI cable into the motherboard when you had a KF chip (true story when I helped a mate build his PC remotely last year). Plus the Dell warranty from my experience is usually pretty good, especially on their monitors.

The only downsides to this are the RAM which some would say isn't enough. I run the same in my rig at home and haven't had problems with AAA games. In any case, Dell's RAM upgrade offerings are a joke to say the least. Buy this system and spend $109 on another set of Kingston Hyper X RAM and you're set for 4x8GB configuration. The other good thing about the R11 Desktop is pretty much all components are individually upgradable for the future.

Don't forget to shop with CR/SB and save a further 6% coming down to $3558.01 with code LOVEKEANU or if you don't use CR/SB you can still shop using the Qantas Rewards Dell store and pick up 1 QFF point per dollar in spend but the cost will be $3761.11.

                  @joker0701: Nice! I placed my order in the best last minute still in production

                    @wjb: Onboard for delivery today! I wanted to ask my mrs to stay home today to be there for the delivery!

      • jace88 on 06/04/2021 - 15:13

        The flipside is if it comes really late, I've found Dell have been quite accomodating with providing rebates/freebies to compensate.

          Haha id pay extra shipping to get it early to be honest..

          The delivery date is still the 7/5 so a way to go!

  • Seven8Nine on 31/03/2021 - 22:03

    Is there way to add CPU with more cores for video edit (amateur level) ?

    • Pelicannn on 31/03/2021 - 23:11

      You can spec a 10900F or 10900KF but I don’t know if it’s worth the upgrade price of $400. 10700K is very capable.

      In any case looks like the deal has changed and it’s no longer available for $3761.

  • Jjlk65 on 31/03/2021 - 23:27

    respect, after seeing your post I want to buy one. Tho I don’t play PC games nor have heavy use of PC. Last PC game I played was warcraft3 (not reforged) doubt it need this specs to run the game lol

    Offer ($3761) is still active

  • Testeagle on 01/04/2021 - 14:39

    I'm almost across the line on this. Thoughts on the 3Yrs Premium Support and Onsite Service ($370.38)?

      tbh, I woudn't… Dell warranty from my own personal experience is pretty good. You could use that money to upgrade the ram to 32gb or purchase another NVMe SSD outside of the order process.

      That being said, come 2 years down the line if something broke it would be most upsetting, so if that insurance policy is worth it to you, i'd buy it. The monitor already comes with 3 years support.

      • Testeagle on 01/04/2021 - 16:20

        I am thinking piece of mind, 3 years should cover anything. Plus it's discounted with LOVEKEANU and cash rewards technically.

    • wjb on 01/04/2021 - 16:21

      credit card complimentary extended warranty

      • Testeagle on 01/04/2021 - 16:22

        Oh yeah, I might look into that.

  • shiningblade on 03/04/2021 - 16:13

    Anyone get their machine built/sent? Mine shows in production at the moment.

    This monitor doesn't say its G-sync compatible but some YouTubers claim it does support G-sync. does anyone know what's up?

    • Pelicannn on 03/04/2021 - 17:05

      As of a year or so G-sync has worked on Freesync monitors. Just ensure drivers are up to date :)

      Weirdly enough, the Dell US site lists the AW2720HF as both Freesync and G-sync compatible directly on the website but the Australian one doesn't. Might be small model differences I guess.

    Out of interest is anyone still able to get this deal?

    The link works, but after entering the LOVEKEANU coupon, it comes down to $5,086.35.

    • Pelicannn on 06/04/2021 - 15:24

      The deal is over as of last week unfortunately.

      Though as Dell deals usually go, give it a few weeks and it will be back similar, though if it’s better or worse is anyone’s guess.

      • jace88 on 06/04/2021 - 16:51

        More just curious as I was debating whether I should buy and part out… as I really just want the GPU!

        • Geoff897 on 06/04/2021 - 23:42

          Too late this time, I don't think you would get a good price selling the pc. You would be wanting 1.3k to $1.8k for a pc with no gpu, only 16gb Ram and limited to all the dell pwr supply/cabling. Its not a pc to be playing with.

          • joker0701 on 07/04/2021 - 07:28

            @Geoff897: If you price the gpu at what theyve been selling for, 2200, that leaves to rest of the components at $1350, call the monitor $500, keyboard mouse and headphone $200, youre left with $650 for the pc.

            So plenty of room.

            • Geoff897 on 07/04/2021 - 09:34

              @joker0701: It's a cheap PC not really a cheap GPU.

              You would need to sell a Alienware Gaming PC that can't game. Adding a average $1k GPU if possible, you have to sell at $1650 And still pay $2200 for the 3080.

              Or if you got lucky and sold it say for $1k without a GPU you still spent $1800 on a GPU.

              Yes maybe a bit cheaper then $2200 but you take on risk and alot of wasted time trying to sell for a couple hundred dollars saving over months.

              If you don't get $700 for accessories and 1k for PC the GPU is closer to 2k

          • jace88 on 07/04/2021 - 07:47

            @Geoff897: I was actually thinking more along the lines of selling all the accessories/etc since they'd be BNIB and Alienware branded (rather than generic KB/M/monitor), and then work out how I frankenstein between my current self-built rig and pieces from here.

            • Geoff897 on 07/04/2021 - 10:02

              @jace88: It depends what you need/get out of it. But the Alienware PC will be so hard to sell modified trying to recoup your costs.

              The $700 just brings the price closer to standard builds which you would be better off with if swapping parts around.

              Best thing about this deal is access to the rtx3080 quickly.

    31/03 ordered with ETA 07/05, built in 2 weeks and 14/04 shipped to the delivery depot in Sydney.
    Track & trace available today 19/04, all 5 freight items scheduled to be delivered tomorrow 20/04 in Sydney.

    • warhead on 20/04/2021 - 13:07

      Same. It's somewhat annoying to see the shipping option marked as Express, but the items have been sitting in their delivery depot since yesterday midday and ETA still says today. Not sure how they're going to make that happen

      • wjb on 20/04/2021 - 13:15

        should be out for delivery if you are in sydney.
        I received mine late this morning.
        Monitor, keyboard and headset were sent in retail packaging with some dirt smudge

  • peternow on 20/04/2021 - 08:39

    Ordered yesterday (19/04) - ETA is 09/06 so far. Will update this if / when it progresses.

    Haven't received cashrewards notification of tracking yet.
