FYI, it has 2.3/5 stars and complaints of inadequate power supplies.

The RTX 3050 is probably only worth using if it's free.

Do these types of prebuilts use generic non-branded GPUs? I have an old Cyberpower PC but it came with an EVGA card but the new machines I've seen seem to use a really basic looking card with questionable looking coolers

No cooling. It will sound like a rocket taking off every second. Entire room will heat up from the fans. The smell of dust and self loathing will be immeasurable.

Not a fan of this deal, but the cooling is perfectly acceptable for a 5700g and 3050. 3 case fans and a basic tower cooler are all you need.

Either it has no cooling OR the room will heat up. Right? The laws of thermodynamics are still in place - there's no such thing as "cooling" just moving the heat somewhere else. Air cooling and water cooling just circulate the heat away from the hot components and into your room, where the air conditioner kicks on and pumps the room heat outside of your house.

If a PC has really good cooling, it heats your room up faster, not slower.
