That is a pretty good deal, it is going to end up being $300 USD with tax.

What PC build are you saving for?

This is more of do you want to have more budget to get a nice gaming desktop or play some games while waiting for one.

honestly a great laptop (for that price)

typically laptops at that range are limited to chromebooks. the 12th gen intel cpu is still considered strong for modern day usage

I’m saving for a i5-14600k
16gb ddr5
3060 12gb
1 tb nvme
And all the other major stuff
I already have a pc but it’s an i5-7500 with a 180 watt psu and a gt 1030
