[QUOTE="RandyDSok, post: 161648, member: 201"] The only problem ( because I was using the Samsung 970 Evo Pro's ) is the cost almost doubles... ie from just under $170 to about $370 ( rounding both up )... There are other good brands that are 1/2 the cost ( or more ) and still have about the same performance but those Sammy's are known for their durability in addition to their speed and I was trying for as close to work station level in that regard. I would expect the customer would have me add additional storage in any case using a hard drive ( size depending on their needs ) Just finished requoting it for S&G's with more conservative costing parts ( while still trying to maintain quality )... and it would easily come out under $3000 for my reselling price. Basically spending 1/2 less on the case ( which is offset slightly by adding two decent 120mm fans ), going with 80+ Bronze non-modular on the PS, lower cost SSD, 16Gb of DDR4 3200 CL 16 memory ( 32Gb CL 16 costs 2/3's what the CL14's cost ), the lower end 2080 Ti etc...
