This Dell system would be a great fit, for home, office, students, coders, CAD, miners, video editors, graphic designers, and even casual gamers. Pretty much everyone except hardcore PC gamer enthusiast that like to build and maintain their own high-end $2000+ systems.
We have 3 of the G5 systems reviewed in that Gamers Nexus video. Ours have GTX1660 graphics cards, 10400F, 500w PS, 16GB ram, and a clean install of Windows 10. All are performing very well and we have not seen any heat or performance issues. My kids play the newest games on them daily (Doom Eternal, Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Madden, HOI4, ect.) While simultaneously having YouTube open, a couple web pages, and messenger programs. I feel as though the build quality was quite good for the price I paid. I could not be more satisfied with our purchase.
If you are just an normal person (like 98% of the population) that wants to get a good deal on a good PC that will probably never be opened, and the only real maintenance you do is reinstall Windows ever couple of years to clean the system up. Then this system is perfect for you, and will serve you well for many years to come.

I've been at odds with Dell asking why there is only a 500W power supply with a 3070 video card, which states on their website that it requires a 650 PSU standard.
Later I was told that the 3070 is a "custom" card that works with this system. In other words, it's not the same 3070 card that's out there on the market.
So it's NOT as powerful as a true 3070, which really pissed me off because that's misleading the customer.
Plus you can't upgrade the power supply because it's SO small! It's only about 2" x 3" x 8" and I couldn't find a replacement for it.
So, I'm thinking of just returning it. With video cards going down in price, I can wait.
Thoughts?
Had it on 2 cards.

I checked the minimum GPU requirements for both games, and they seem pretty basic to my untrained eye:
"Tabletop Simulator Minimum Requirements.
Graphics card with DX10 (shader model 4.0) capabilities."
"Among Us requires at least a Radeon HD 3850 or GeForce 9600 GSO 512MB to meet recommended requirements running on high graphics setting, with 1080p resolution. This hardware should achieve 60FPS. 1 GB will also be needed to achieve the Among Us rec specs and get 60FPS"
