I see that laptop listed at $2699.99, maybe you have a promo code? Dell prebuilt desktops are one of the worst prebuilts you can buy (from personal use & industry ref), not sure about their laptops though.

This build would look great & perform very well, quality brand parts

I usually go intel but the price of the 5800x3d is too good

Turns out the GSkill LT1 doesn't c/w fans, so you'd need to dump about another $100 into the build with;

2x 140MM Fans (Intake)
1x 120MM Fan (Exhaust)

Lian Li UNI FAN SL 2/NZXT AER RGB for nice RGB ones
be quiet silent wings p3 for nice black ones

turns out the next day the sale ended, tried contacting sales and they said they would send me an invoice and never received shit.
