The price isn't terrible, but just looking at the internal pictures it's clear you won't be able to upgrade much.

The motherboard is proprietary, the power supply is proprietary... Basically you would need special adapters to get a conventional PSU to work with the board if you wanted a more powerful GPU in the future. But if you just want to get gaming you could do worse as far as prebuilts go.

You could however build a better gaming PC for less or about the same:

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jJNtzf for example

The 6700xt is typically about 10% slower than a 3070 at 1080p, which means it's still substantially faster than a 3060 and still also faster than a 3060ti.. so for around the same money you could have a CPU with better gaming performance and a GPU nearly two-performance-tiers more powerful.

6700xt vs 3070: https://www.techspot.com/review/2...n-6700-xt/
