Nobody builds a system like that with only 16 gigs of RAM and only 256G storage.

Plus you need a quality motherboard, case, power supply, water cooling. Add another $1200.

The OP system76 does. And if you want to upgrade to more then the price premium skyrockets.

True. I'm really saying it would be silly to build a system like that with so little memory and storage. A friend of mine just build a 3950X, 128 gigs RAM, 4 TB SSD (2 NVME, 2 SATA.) The thing is a monster.
