Similar price point as a previous build for sale on SD, that I happened to buy. https://slickdeals.net/share/iphone_app/t/14297474.

Main differences I can see are that this current one has a better processor listed (3600 vs 3500) and larger SSD (512 vs 256) for just $50 more.

Pretty good find. The case doesn't do it for me, looks like zero airflow. But if you don't OC or max out your hardware temps should be fine for normal gaming and applications. TU

More than likely yes. Ryzen 4000 series CPUs (should) will be out, so in theory the 3000 lineup should go down in price. Assuming no more supply chain disruptions, etc.

If you were referring to pre-built prices, no clue.

I'd say so with release of Nvidia's 3000 series and AMD having to compete its going to drive the prices down. Not to mention Ryzen 4000 series CPUs are going to be released in October. Big changes are happening! I'm just here for the ride.

Not a bad deal. If bought separately the parts would roughly cost around $550.

Ryzen 5 3600 = $200
AM4 Motherboard = $50+
GTX 1650 Super = $160
8 GB RAM = $25
512 SSD = $50
Case = $30
Cheap 400 watt power supply = $25

But the new ryzen zen 3 4000 series is coming in a month or two. Would wait unless you really need a new PC immediately.

As other people have stated, not bad if you need it right now. A bit over build price (some people prefer to pay in order to not build) but decent entry specs.

But realize, as you probably already know, that new CPUs are around the corner, and new GPUs are basically here. Now whether or not you can get stock when it comes out is the question!
I believe if you need it THIS MONTH and this checks all your boxes then go for it. But the 3050 (or whatever iteration they will call it) will be substantially better than the 1650. You will have to wait longer, but it will be a much better price point at functionality cost.

Thanks so much! Looking for a cheaper gaming system for my son.

You can buy a Windows 7 key legally for a few bucks and use it to activate Windows 10. Also if you have the product key from an old Win 7 or Win 8 PC no longer in use you can just use that. Or you can use Win 10 for free if you are okay with having a watermark telling you to activate.

The mouse and keyboard included are usually so cheap and basic, you can find something much better for $15-$20.

Anyone familiar with this in-house brand? The reviews are not very in-depth nor the most positive. Also, don't see any detailed specs.

Are pre-builds like this up-gradable? Looking to dip my toe in for Flight Simulator and don't want to get stuck with a low end one if I decide to upgrade some components

They are, but not to the extent of running Flight Fimulator.

If you want to run Flight Simulator, at MINIMUM, you will need a $1300 PC.

This is pretty min-spec for Flight Simulator.

If it had a B450 instead of an A320 mobo, I'd probably get it for my kid who is sadly playing Valorant on a Pentium G3420 with a gt730..ouch..poor girl. The 400w power supply is probably some no-name inefficient POS.

This is a solid deal @ $650 with OS, but isn't very future proof.

I just built a 3600 + 1660 GTX Super for Flight Simulator. I gave it a 650watt psu, MSI X570 with wifi, 1TB m.2, and 32GB....coolermaster case. I probably have $1000 in it, but can upgrade to a 4000 series and have a full ATX motherboard to accept larger GPUs.
