Sure, build one yourself that's about 25% faster on average in games and includes 16GB of ram allowing you to actually game at 1440p which an Rx 6600 is definitely capable of.
And that's current pricing without deal hunting.
If you're patient, an Rx 6600 can be had for $200 snd an Rx 5600 (which would be faster than the 5600g) can be had for $120
GVG Mall or any similar grey market key seller has been around and promoted by techtubers long enough that I no longer consider them sketchy.
In fact, thanks to a court ruling in Germany likening the practice to selling cd keys on steam, it's been ruled to be completely legal.
Only downside is the key is forever tied to the motherboard its originally installed on and if you upgrade you need to repurchase a license (which you could do 7 times over before hitting $100)
yeah the hp omen from walmart for $365 is basically the same as this performance wise, but still a crap deal vs building yourself.
I ended up doing build myself with all of the Black Friday deals. Did a 5600 + 6650 XT build for $750 + Tax. That's a faster CPU, 50-100% faster GPU depending on the title, with double the RAM/SSD, in a modular case that I can upgrade in the future.
Check out some of the builds on the /r/pcmasterrace wiki [reddit.com] for somewhere to start

You have a 2014 computer and only good for very light gaming. Both these machines will only support PCIE 3rd generation. The newer video cards need a better PCI e bus.
This is the computer I am currently rebuilding for my main computer for office work.
What is your operating system and what is it running on, m.2?
Did you ever overclock?

I passed my i7-4790k with 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD with a RTX2070 to my son... at 1080p he's playing everything he wants to his hearts content - no complaints... he's not playing the latest AAA titles, but the ones he's playing have pretty nice graphics and run fluidly...
For your rig I'd upgrade to an SSD first, then if your gaming is lacking maybe upgrade your graphics... you could either do something inline with your system's capabilities (like RX 6600 maybe or RTX 3050), or if you think you may upgrade the rest of your rig at some point you may decide to shoot higher...
That's the beauty of having a custom rig... gives you options...
