If you really don't want to mess with building your own, you could purchase this Acer and a GTX1650 regular (not Super) and play pretty much every game in existence at 1080P at Medium or better with 60FPS plus. So, for under $700 out the door you could do a lot worse.
10400 by a mile.

The i7-8665U is a low wattage laptop chip with 4 cores and 8 threads.

The i5-10400 is a 65W desktop chip with 6 cores and 12 threads.

Completely different... if benchmarks matter to you, the 10400 is 2-3x faster.
That's why I stressed a regular 1650 non-Super. It runs on bus power so no additional cable and NVidia's recommendation (300w) matches the stated PSU wattage of this Acer system. Even if its claimed 300 watts are ambitious, the 65w 10400 is a cool-running good choice and should keep the system with GPU well supplied with power.

Ahh, cool. My friend asked me about a desktop in this price range yesterday (that can run dual monitors out of the box) and the best I found was an HP Pavilion at Costco for $600 (now $700 [costco.com]). This one has similar specs.. although video card is integrated instead of the HP's "2GB AMD Radeon™ RX 550 Graphics".

i5-10400 vs i7-8665U, which one is better/faster?

Lenovo has ThinkCentre M90n Nano (i7-8665U, 16GB, 512GB SSD, W10Pro, USB-C, Model: 11ADS0BC00) for $579.

So do these also have proprietary power supply and connectors like how HP desktops are ? I already have a 5600XT and it would definitely need higher than 300w

add a power supply and hope that it doesn't use a proprietary formfactor

Is it possible to buy this one, and later upgrade to an i7 CPU? Will the motherboard support i7 cpu?

I have an older Acer Aspire with the i5 8400 and it uses a standard ATX power supply and I was able to change it out.

Is it possible to pop a low-powered GPU in this without upgrading the PSU?
If "yes", any suggestions for a < $100 GPU?
I'm not a gamer, just want something better than the Intel integrated graphics and want to offload some of demand for RAM onto a dedicated graphics card.
TIA.

If this is the same as case as the i5-9400, then check your measurements.

I had to upgrade the PSU and the spare modular one I had was too long for the case.
