I see the word flagship tossed around a lot these days in reference to computers and phones. That's a stupid application of the word so thanks for that poop-slathered gemstone of marketing there Corsair.
The Pro i180 looks like a great system worth serious consideration, but not at $5K! Nowadays this entire system can be priced in 30 minutes thanks to the web. It can be built for around $3.5K without much effort.

$5000 for a single RTX 2080ti and you don't even get a 1TB SSD? Good luck with that.IdBuRnS - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
It does seem stupid that the more expensive models have half the SSD storage and weaker PSUs.misak - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
It is a typo. There is also wrong chipset and PSU on the i140.LiviuTM - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
Indeed, the specs have been swapped - i180 has 960GB SSD and 750W PSU. https://www.corsair.com/p/CS-9040001-NAjust6979 - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
The mobo, storage, and psu rows are reversed. Swap the first and last columns in those rows and it makes sense.Aouniat - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
The logic behind these prices is mind blowing.PixyMisa - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
It makes a bit more sense once you realise the table is messed up.duploxxx - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
CES innovation awards....yet another nothing special amazing boring prefab design.... you can see the lack of inspiration by those who provided the awards....

I think the table is messed up. Presumably the 9920X goes with the X299 board?PixyMisa - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
Yes, and presumably the 960GB SSD as well.vicbee - Monday, January 14, 2019 - link
