As a system builder, this kinda stings a bit to be honest. It's not pretty on the inside, but it's a pretty solid rig at a great price for what you get.
The things I see that are not so good are:

The PSU could be better
The MSI 580 looks to be a single fan, so that could be problematic for temps.
In the picture they show a mechanical HDD installed, but the description just says 500GB SSD, so you're limited on storage space as well. (Also makes me wonder what else is changed from the picture)
The case has so-so airflow and will only support matx boards which limits upgrades
Acryllic scratches VERY easily and the case is covered in it.
Single-channel RAM. Easily upgradeable but not the best RAM setup for Ryzen.
Little to no OC on the Mobo will limit the 2600's precision boost.

All in all it's a decent starter system. A little bit of upgrading over a few months and you'd have a solid rig on your hands.
I prefer to build them 100% ready, safe and fairly future proof myself, but that's not the point of these systems, I get that.

Picked this up this morning. Should be a decent machine for 1080p gaming for my son after doubling the RAM.

Even with 8GB Ram, it is pretty decent gaming machine.

Best Buy will have this as part of their BF deal for I believe $699, if my memory serves me correctly.

CL Lite 3.1 TG is kind of a limited airflow case, I would not pair it with RX 580. I can see the cheapest motherboard and PSU in there, corners cut. B350 is just $10 more, can overclock 2600 to 3.8-3.9GHz

I'm pretty sure this motherboard doesn't let you overclock

What ram would you recommend for an upgrade?

That RAM clock speed needs to go up and make it dual-channel. Both super important on the Ryzen platform
