Its almost impossible to build a similar PC for $799. Give it a shot on PC part picker. Also keep in mind you need Windows 11. Based on the OP, if he/she is looking to go with a PC without upgrading then this is a great unit that should last them for more than a few years and run current games with no problems. If for some reason they want a 3090ti, etc...then this setup is not for everyone that are looking for a path to upgrade based on the PSU.

As long as you use a grey market key it's pretty easy (you can argue the ethics of doing so and make that decision for yourself)

But you'd also be better served using a 5600 or 5600x and stepping up to an Rx 6700 10GB and landing within the same budget

Again the fact is your price point matches the offer, but does not beat the offer. Also you have the DVD version of the Windows 11. So you would need to add an external DVD device. Keep in mind, building a PC doesn't guarantee stability. Every part may have issues with motherboard capability.

Personally, the CoolerMaster case is average. I much prefer the HP case. The CoolMaster case is a case I would not buy for under $50. The NVME drive has below average read/write speeds.

The point we are making is that this gaming PC is a great deal. We can nit pick all day on pre-build vs. custom build.

Smoking deal! I might take my sons setup back for this!

Average cost for these items:

Case + PSU = $150
Motherboard + CPU combo = $400
Ram = $100
GPU = $300
NVME 512gb = $60

You are already over $1000. So yes great deal!
I'd take the 5600($120) better gaming over the 5700g and save money there. You do not need a APU(5700g/5600g/4600g) for a gaming rig. Also, drop the ram to 16gb. More savings there. You can also use the stock cooler.

OS is free.

Not really a good deal. The case is trash and worthless. Psu is likely bottom barrel. You can get a 5600 and get more performance out of that then a 5700g. Ram speed is important and unknown. You could build something way better at this price point yourself.
Ram is 3200MHz. Decent but could obviously get something faster if building yourself (but also likely paying more).

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I have been building my own PC's for 30 years. Having said that, it's really arrogant to assume everyone is comfortable building their own PC. When your new built PC is glitching, boot looping, and giving you blue screen of death, who are you gonna call? Which components are you gonna return? Where is your easy return and Costco warranty?

Nicely done. And agreed, I'd save the money on the 5600 - that's $65 right there.

Still think this is a good deal for a prebuilt (even if it is HP with many proprietary parts).

Even cheaper if we're desperate for a killer 1080/1440p gaming rig but still room to upgrade.

Is this good deal? Looking for gaming desktop for my 16 year old
Check out my build lists or if you want a cheaper gaming rig then you can find refurbished pre-built 5600g with rx 5500 for $370. Only caveat is 8gb of ram and 256gb ssd You do have to add another stick of 1x8gb and storage. So $25 for ram and $50 2tb hdd. We're looking at $450 which isn't too bad. I'd go with that route.

That's a great point. However I'm not concerned about customer service with as much of rebuying a part that needs to be replaced. Most likely buying from Newegg or Amazon will allow replacements within a certain period of time.

Yes I bought that HP Pavilion Gaming PC for $370. Upgraded to 1TB 7000/6000 NVME and provided my son my 16GB of GSkill. It's an amazing deal and his computer is super snappy and smooth on gaming with his 27" 1440p monitor.

ryzen apu is technically zen 2 so it's performance is lower than 11th gen

this is be cpu bottleneck before gpu becomes an issue

the 6600xt is practically half of the cost of the rest of the components but gpu WILL drop lower; it's ok for the sake of not building but not a good deal if you CAN build

if it had rtx 3060 then it would be better value to choose dlss or fsr compared to ONLY being fsr

32gb isn't important when compared to 16gb besides productivity but people prefer more overhead cause we apple be anemic with it

the asus g10 on amazon was better still cause it was cheaper and you can use savings to put into upgrades such as psu and AIO for the intel11400 which runs hot but outperforms the 5700g

Sorry, I meant to reply to the person asking for his 16 year old. But you get it. Quick question, did you use a USB clone/burn/transferring device before you remove and install the new SSDs?

Was the $370 a recent deal or from some other time? I'm looking for a PC, not really for gaming, but wouldn't mind the speed, but would like something in that $400 range.

Considering buying this to replace my mother's 7 year old Intel NUC I put together for her many years ago. She just needs fast and quiet for her productivity software and internet browsing. She prefers the mini PCs like the Intel NUC but this one is only 13.27 inches high so it will fit under her desk perfectly and is fairly small.

I'm just wondering about the noise factor and build quality, I need something that can last a long time like her Intel NUC so I'm not getting a call 2 years from now with her telling me it's dead.

What do you all think about getting this as a general productivity PC?
