Most refurbs are much cheaper for slightly lesser specs, you could get one with the same CPU for around $120-$160ish if you know where to look (albeit with half the RAM and an HDD). This listing includes 16GB of RAM but RAM is not expensive these days and you could get additional stick(s) for cheaper. It doesn't specify what the layout is so it could be 4x4 instead of 2x8 which wouldn't be as optimal. The listing does come with a 1 year warranty. Although it does come with an SSD, you can get a generic one the same size for about $60 (and you could just get a smaller SSD as a boot drive for ($25-$40ish for half the size). Also, it doesn't mention if it still has the OEM PSU (which is just powerful enough to support the current components) or not which means you don't know if you're going to be able to use a dedicated video card right away. PSUs are rather pricey right now.
Most buyers who are looking to use refurbs will not be looking for this. If you're an everyday person who is looking to replace their ancient desktop/laptop, this would be okay due to the 1 year support. Otherwise... it's eh.

But something is off. A 7020 should have a Haswell CPU, not an Ivy Bridge CPU. Either this is actually a 7010, or the CPU model in the listing is incorrect.
With i7-4770
Are there any GPUs worth putting in?
or do I have to get a new PSU and adapters for the proprietary MB
