"Lev-C010-i7-TMVM" - rolls right off the tongue
Still, better than the trend of putting a gajillion words like 'force', 'gaming' and 'Xtreme' together in no particular order...
The PSU does seems rather underpowered, doesn't it?

They really don't learn, that gamers need better GPU to play AAA games in 21 century.
Switch 6700K to 6600K and 970 to 980. I don't even want to know where they got 500W PSU.
edit: sigh here go nothing.

I will agree on the cpu. But to call the 970 not a better gpu for AAA games is pretty lame. You are acting like its a GTX 960. That is a pos gpu IMHO.

Probably couldn't stick anything more powerful because already cheaped out on the 500w PSU.

Compared to alienware, it isn't that expensive (an alienware with comparable specs will cost around $500 more). And the case isn't insanely ugly, which is a plus
Of course, for people who are used to build pc's themselves, it's overpriced. But those are not the people that will buy these.
That's also why you don't need more than 500w. It's not for people who expand their pc (that said, according to my monitoring software, my pc tops @300w while running prime95 and Heaven Benchmark @4K. I'd say there's a little wiggle room)

When I talk about gaming, I mean having at least 120 fps, considering gamer has 120/144hz panel.
So, 970 is might be good enough for 1080p 120fps gaming. But once we go up to 1440p, things not look so pretty anymore.
6600K doesn't justify 970. You probably need cheaper, non-k cpu for that.

not all gamer play with 1440p..i think 1080p 120/144Hzpanel still most popular to considered for buy..1440p panel still high priced and some OVERPRICED
btw another prebuild PC..build your own rig is a ART&SCIENCE but not everyone can do that

Agree.
And tbh assuming that psu with the aforementioned 80+ Silver certification an ok/good quality one, it would be more than enough for that system.
Unfortunately for that around that sum(in euros) or just a fraction more, you can get a 5820k/250GB SSD/970/16GB DDR4/750W plus a nice case these days.
Now that I come to think about it, if they change that mobo to a Z170/DDR4 and add another 8GB, it wouldn't be too bad price wise. At least compared to others that is.
