Alternatively, if you wait a couple of years, you should be able to get this same build MUCH cheaper! Hold! Stick Out Tongue

Can we assume this is an MSI branded GPU? I would be interested in this if I knew it didn't sound like a vacuum cleaner due to fan noise.

It looks like every affordable PC deal coming here has a 3060 in it and if its anything better, the price of the PC is much higher. Isnt that right?
There have been a few with a 3060 ti in the $1200-1300 range. AMD doesn't seem popular in pre-built machines from the brand names.

All the i7s with 3060s seem odd to me since the processor is overlook for that card. I guess these are more targeted at productivity users who are wnt the ability to game.

I bought the Lenovo i5-12400 version from Costco but am eyeing this MSI deal.

The important difference for me would be that the MSI uses a more standard case so it is probably more upgradable. I wanted to upgrade the RAM on the Lenovo but can't really reach them because of some metal plates.

Also this has slightly more storage than the Lenovo. I've been happy with my Lenovo so far but want to upgrade RAM/CPU for productivity things.

It's a little big for a carry-on.

Besides the standard case I would also mention that MSI motherboard allows for easier upgrading and possible overclocking and control of your fan/ power settings. The Lenovo will have a junk proprietary mobo.

Awesome deal for those looking for a pre-built gaming rig. Everything you need in one bundle and MSI has some great hardware.

How is this compared to Mac mini 16GB in term of Lightroom? For reference, my current 10 year old PC has Intel 4770k and AMD Radeon HD 7850.
