Genuienly, I'd love to see your build, your parts and prices.

I can't figure out how to do it, out of stuff you can actually buy retail.

If you can figure out an SFF build for under $1150, that can run RDR2 at 75 fps on high/ultra, at 1440p, without using any upscaling, let me know.

Ok then, fine.

There, that's the closest I can get to GN's part list.

Can't find any 7400F's, so 7500F instead.

Can't find any SFX PSU around ~$35, so... ATX MSI MAG A550BN?

Rosewill has a 550W PSU that's $7 cheaper, but isn't even Bronze rated.

Also, couldn't find the A-Tech RAM, went with Crucial.

But I did get the price pretty close to GN, $982, pre-tax. I would need to double/triple check all power draw tolerances... and whether or not all this shit can actually physically fit in the case, as an ATX PSU is chonky compared to an SFX PSU.

EDIT:

Ah, the Case apparently does not actually come with the two front 120mm fans in the pictures, so basically add ~$15 to ~$25 onto the price for those.
