Link doesn't work.

Bought mine on the 8th, was supposed to get here on the 13th but got delayed so 2 days ago customer support gave me a 10% refund for the delay. Walmart didnt like that too much so yesterday they just refunded my total amount and cancelled my order. Such bs

[–]JohnYu1379 17 points18 points  (0 children)

another quality walmart experience

[–]Whosez 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Wow. Just... wow.

[–]Revenge_Is_Here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently dealing with them now regarding the computer. Walmart is so annoying...

[–]stresspresso 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I saved $10 with a coupon WOWFRESH. 1044 out the door.

Picking it up tomorrow.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (6 children)

if you have a walmart supercenter near you, they usually have them in stock

[–]Enchilada_Nacho 5 points6 points  (5 children)

None of the ones in Dallas have any, according to the website

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (4 children)

around me, the regular walmarts dont have any, there are 2 walmart supercenters that both had them in stock. i bought 3 in the last couple months. my nephews better remember this shit lol

[–]hashonBLAST 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I picked one up the other day from a Supercenter in Nowhere, Arkansas. About 30 minutes outside of the capital city.

[–]Enchilada_Nacho 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I’m including the supercenters. Maybe they won’t being in stock and I would have to call them, or they’re just out of stock period

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

its best to go and check yourself. trying to talk to the associates(atleast here) is like pulling teeth. nobody has a clue

[–]Enchilada_Nacho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell me about it! At least have an employee at the department who is tech savvy, Wal Mart!!

[–]BurntLumpia808 8 points9 points  (2 children)

I ordered one on oct. 1 and it's been delayed ever since. Doesn't matter if link works or not because you won't get it

[–]cnoizece 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I was able to order on October 1st, and they cancelled on October 21st. I've checked locally but I see nothing in the Northwest. My local stores don't even have display models despite having spots for them. I see some people have been able to find them so I guess some regions are able to get them in.

[–]BurntLumpia808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im just waiting for my cancellation notice, but as of now, none

[–]blockofdynamite 28 points29 points  (16 children)

Stop posting this, they don't ship and they're never in stock anymore in store.

[–]karroq 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got one shipped recently. I was working on it this morning. They do exist, they just always get more orders than they have stock, probably because of it being posted in places like this sub.

[–]hotdogs_mcgee 3 points4 points  (6 children)

Not true, in stock in Geneseo, NY right now

[–]hashonBLAST 1 point2 points  (5 children)

i bought one this many days ago plus an hour or so

Did you try using the Nvidia beta 470.05 driver to see if it is a v1 rtx 3060 that can be unlocked to mine at full hashrate? My friend said the asus rtx 3060 phoenix in the system he got was the older version that can be unlocked with the driver.

[–]hashonBLAST -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I did. GPU-Z also says it's the later revision. TY tho!!

[–]hashonBLAST -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Actually just tried again to be sure.

DDU Remove -> Reboot -> Put 3060 in slot connected to TV HDMI -> install 470.05 -> 1660 gets recognized, 3060 "Basic Display Adapter", reboot and try again. Same result. Install a newer driver -> all is well.

:(

[–]monkeybanana14 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

I got one in store a month ago and it was the v2

also for you

[–]joshuralize 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just bought one in store 2 days ago.

[–]yajinni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I managed to get one weeks ago. So your wrong.

[–]Kaiyotie 2 points3 points  (4 children)

They do ship. Source, me. I own one.

[–]BlkDirtMcGurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone on here is located in the southeast region of the US, Virginia, North and South Carolina Walmarts usually have them in stock at $999.99. Picked one up at the New Hope Church Road location....no rear end screw job prices like on the website. Feel free to Google the number and check yourselves. They CAN be had but you WILL have to do walk in as calling is a waste of your time.

[–]worthless_ape 5 points6 points  (2 children)

I thought I'd missed out on this because it no longer lets you buy it online if there's no in-store availability, but on Tuesday I happened to check at like 3 in the morning and it said there were six in stock and it let me buy one. Says it's supposed to get here on Halloween and it still hasn't shipped, so I'm starting to doubt I'll ever see it.

Still, if you're desperate, you might still luck out if you just check at weird times, I guess. Could have been a website glitch or something though.

EDIT: It was cancelled.

[–]______Deleted___ 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Bought mine last month on the 6th still hasn’t shipped 🙃

[–]worthless_ape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus. I was assuming it would get cancelled after a week like others on here have said. If it's still in limbo and it gets to be Black Friday/Cyber Monday time, I guess I'll have to refund.

EDIT: It got canceled after a week.

[–]DonQuantum 4 points5 points  (3 children)

I have this computer, I got it for free.

For everybody wondering, if you get the Walmart price, you're getting 1500$ worth of current gen parts for 1k.

The graphics card is Asus Phoenix , it is ITX, but holy shit it runs ice cold, I'm taking everything I got on Xbox game pass, steam, epic games on ultra in 4k 90 fps plus like 73 degrees all times.

Idle temps can reach 27....

Asus AM4 B550 standard non gaming edition motherboard - actually not bad and has a 10g Ethernet option and like 6 USB C ports, integrated audio hardware for front port headset audio

16gb skyhenix 3200 ram- very good

Toshiba 1TB 72000 hdd- surprisingly fast Western digital 256 ssd onboard - blazing fast

Two fans, basic run of mill CPU cooler Ryzen 7 5700G- mmmm amazing

Battery- I don't know yet but it's 500w I think.

Case is whatever, took of the side panels got -20c better temps, transferring to a mega huge Thermaltake ITX case anyways.

It can be loud but coming from a old gen PS4 It almost seems identical when on performance or windows mode, silent mode through Asus gpu tweak is the ultimate for all you silent seekers.

Plus u get a Walmart warranty which is ridiculously cheap and easy to return.

Overall this computer has been wicked fast and wicked cold, I can see most if not all major complaints directed to the case as it is slick looking but small form and standard pre -built asthetic.

At worst, you could buy a brand new case for 30,40,50,60 - 100 on a case and that would solve any airflow.

Though I will admit the case does have features that create airflow and is built cognitively of temperature , but one could enhance the airflow with upgrading if so.

Surprised as all hell, I think this computer will go down as the hidden gem amongst these times

[–]Sage0fThe6Paths 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yeh no. A 3060 is not gonna give u 90 fps on 4k resolution for majority of popular games out there…source: i have a 3060 and this guy is capping

[–]Nopulu 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It depends on what games he's playing. For all I know he could be playing Hot Wheels Unleashed remaster lol

[–]rndorddt 1 point2 points  (16 children)

Is this worth the price?

[–]gvl2gvl[S] 13 points14 points  (10 children)

It isn't shit yourself good but sub 1000 in fall 2021 for a 3060 build seems okay to me.

[–]DonJaunFInal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres literally like 3 builds that are better than this config and they cost around 1400 to 2000$... and youre not even jumping the fidelity gap from 3060ti and above until youre paying around 1800...

1k for this deal is absolutely absurd, it is a downright steal, and thats not even taking into account the economy, just price for performance youre getting absolutely blessed for 1k.

[–]feud999 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Shows at 1,099 for me.

[–]DonQuantum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1392 is the scalper price Walmart is selling through an alternative store on their website when the sale turns off at Walmart.com

[–]NPPraxis -1 points0 points  (5 children)

Shows at $1392 for me

[–]gvl2gvl[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I was seeing the same thing couple days ago. Looks like the price is dependent on location. Maybe, if there is one in stock nearby you could get the manager to price match?

[–]DonQuantum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Price for 1000$ is Walmart's price

The 1395$ price is a alternative seller when the stock goes OOS, if you look the sellers name is like Galaxy electronic or something

[–]DonQuantum 0 points1 point  (1 child)

1,099 is the Walmart sales price

[–]BlkDirtMcGurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walmart price is $999...always has been unless you buy 3rd party.

[–]DonQuantum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this computer and it's shit yourself good.

I paid 1k for 1480$ worth of parts , I already could sell it for that much today

[–]EmergencyCaramel6282 1 point2 points  (3 children)

If you dont have microcenter and need to upgrade, it's not bad

[–]stampede 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What's the better option at microcenter? I have a microcenter.

[–]PoopyFingers_6969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, what's this better microcenter alternative you talking about? I am 10 minutes away from one and I am in desperate need of a PC.

[–]mrm00kie88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you post the Microcenter deal that is better?

[–]joshuralize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The components are extremely basic (green ram, single fan 3060) but its a pretty good value by current standards.

[–]Cat4Cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought this, a week after the delivery date it was on permanent delay, then a week later it was canceled.

[–]gvl2gvl[S] 3 points4 points  (4 children)

This one flips between 999 and 1400 often. Its 999 now but has to be in store pickup.

[–]FAQtie 6 points7 points  (3 children)

Showing as $1099

[–]ajchun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

seems to depend on the store you select. if I choose the Walmart north of me, its $1099. if I choose the Walmart south of me, its $999

[–]gvl2gvl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still showing as $999 for me :(

[–]BlkDirtMcGurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As of two days ago on my receipt it is $999.99.

[–]blazinsmokey[🍰] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

This looks like one of those cases that has really bad air flow, anyone confirm?

[–]Kaiyotie 8 points9 points  (1 child)

I own it and people who are complaining about airflow and temps are just trying to cope with not being able to purchase one. There is nothing wrong with this PC.

[–]ignorantnormie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's a 5700G and RTX 3060, airflow literally does not matter.

[–]PoopyFingers_6969 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. This case is horrible and yet somehow they still use it for the $2k+ prebuilt too.

[–]ChemicaLust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ryzen 7 and a 3060. This seems too good, right?

[–]opticblastoise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why are they relisting this without having shipped out the last two batches. This will never ship.

[–]AssScreamer9000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought and picked up for bosses child, everything works fine and benches well. GPU gets hot but stays within margin.

[–]CravinM1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been getting canceled for months

[–]WTThomas5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered on the 11th and it's still delayed too... But I did chat with support a couple days ago and was told November 2nd. No way to know if it's true or if they just randomly said the 2nd but, given it was just one more week, I decided to wait and see what happens.

[–]MicahWeeks 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Does anyone know the maximum length GPU this case can take? This could be worth the buy just to use until you can get the GPU you want in the future.

[–]BlkDirtMcGurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MicahWeeks, I highly recommend the Walmart app. That came in clutch for me. It will show both the Walmart price and the 3rd party pricing.

[–]Ditho67 0 points1 point  (2 children)

For those who found this product in-store and were able to buy it. Did it show out of stock on the Walmart website? Or how did you find out Walmart had it?

[–]BigCTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I picked one up this morning for $999. It showed in stock on the website and I received the ready for pickup email about 3 hours after placing the order. Going to hold off on opening just in case there's a better deal around BF...

[–]Intelligent_Speech_4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to keep refreshing and checking back throughout the day. I found 2 stores that had 1 in stock. When j tried to order them it wouldn't go through. Refreshed a few times through the day still didn't go through. Tried again at night time and it said 1 in stock so I bought it and the order actually went through and made available for pick up the next day. Called store to confirm the correct item was purchased and ready and they confirmed it was. I had to search multiple zip codes around me to find one in stock. Have to make a 4 hour total trip for it today.
