Possible PC scam?

[u/Glittering-Meat1341]

So a few years back, in 2023, i built this PC in camp, and have just realized that i may have gotten scammed. the specs are rtx 3090, ryzen 7 7800x3d, 32 gigs of ddr5, msi b650 plus wifi, and an 850 watt psu. all inside of an AURA CG2 case. i spent $2000 on the course including all fees. Please help! i just want to know if i had gotten a good deal back then of if i had gotten scammed.

edit: i am not using an AIO, just a simple copper heatsink

Where does the 'scam' part come in here?

[u/DatMageDoe → u/AshleyAshes1984]

Because the internet's sensationalism has eroded the definition of "scam" from "being lead to believe you're getting one product/service when you're actually getting a worse one" to "A product/price I don't like."

Sounds like you paid for a camp and got an included Pc. It’s not like you went to Costco bought a prebuilt and got a free camping certificate.

Are you not including the camping experience in the cost? Only the build? Why do the course then and not buy a prebuilt?

Is everything a "scam" now? Just like the word "hack". They've both lost all meaning. FFS.

No you got a very powerful pc during the wind down from Covid prices

You got taught how to build a pc and got a pc for 2k? Doesn't sound like a scam to me. Did they lie to you? Did you not get the right parts? Right now it sounds like they stole a few brain cells.

I could not buy those parts today for 2000 where I live.

Who gives a fuck? What would you do if it was a scam? It was 3 years ago.

These posts about people buying things and then asking AFTER the fact if it was a good deal are so stupid.

Umm what ?

Go and try and price those parts now

No idea why you're panicking about it now...3 years later
