I had this pc for slightly over a year, recently changed the thermal paste for the CPU. A couple things to mention is the red cpu light on the motherboard is on. I tried one thing to try to fix it but didn’t work, also one of the RGB on the Ram sticks does not work but the RAM itself is operating just fine. As for the price I’m aware of the situation with the of shortages on RAM on whatnot so pricing is high due to that
