JustinTime Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Is this a good value for $399.99? Originally $599 but is it really worth $600? The main specs are Intel? 3rd Generation Core? i5 2.7GHz (with Turbo Boost up to 3.2GHz), 8GB RAM, 1TB 7200 RPM HD, W8 64 Bit, HDMI and 2 USB 3.0. It's a special limited time offer. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6577046&type=product&id=1218757819488#tab=overview Thanks.

Shane Nokes Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 This is the CPU in the system is a slightly down-clocked version of this one: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16819116781 So just the CPU alone is worth about $150ish. Factor in the hard drive, RAM, case, OS, and various other bits, plus the warranty...they are actually taking a loss on the machine at that price. So yes it's worth it as regards just the price.
