Decent?
Looking to buy a new pc after my 9 year old one's power supply died. Looking for something relatively future proof. Came across this at walmart.com. wdyt?

Not terrible but there's definitely better deal.
If you really want Intel+Nvidia (or even if you just need a computer ASAP because you don't have anything to do work stuff or emails on until then)

If you can wait a few weeks for build times and don't mind AMD

Is significantly more performance.

I'm more familiar with nvidia. Also like the ultra i7, seems worth the difference from the first.

It’s so so. It would be a steal if had double the ram. If 16 is usable and you plan to get 32 later on then it could work. You can find something cheaper with the same specs or something with double the ram and storage for 100-200 more.

Absolutely not, I saw someone got a pc with the same exact specs plus it was a gaming pc for 1299. I would try to check if there is a microcenter nearby.
