Aren't these really old components
Agreed. It's been an awsome budget card. It's been good to me at 1080p. This seems like a decent deal for someone that doesn't have interest in building their own pc.
Getting rid of old stock. They had RGB blinged it out to convince you enough and nice enough to give you a 600w gold unit. The 3100 4c/8t is decent and overall great for anyone that doesn't have a PC.

If you were to DIY, you get way more performance with the RX 6600 and get a free copy of Starfield. Skip the 4100 and look for a 5500 deal that was $80 not too long ago or find a used 3600.

I hate to be "that guy" but how is this a deal? With the falling prices of video cards and nvme storage, I really don't see how you should spend $500 (pre tax) on something that's really the older socket and the CPU being a couple generations old.

Prior to this thread, i was seeing some mini-PCs and barebones, thinking how you can get a small setup for under $400 (so for non-gaming, this woot deal isn't the route). For gaming, i'll admit, i am pretty stuck up (not acknowledging the 1660 super) but with GPU prices dropping, you can score a more worthwhile GPU that's much more meaningful years to come. Also, this PC (while i don't know the individual parts warranty) Woot only warrants it for 90 days.

Edit: okay, i see the 3100 isn't a slouch. Still, the bottom line of $500+ for me is when you start to get serious with a computer purchase, and something like the 3100 is the entry level of a chip a couple generations ago. Maybe i'm out of touch?

Quote from bcbird304 :
Always surprised by the snobby comments on these posts. Yes, its deeply discounted because parts are 3-4 years old. But heck, even my 2k+ rig is running on a 5 year old cpu (8700k). For someone who is getting into pc gaming and has a strict 500$ budget, this a pretty decent deal - particularly if you don't want to build. 1660s are still 200-240$ themselves.

That being said, yes - may want to see if you can spend a little more if looking for upgrading this because the cpu is pretty barebones - but if wanting a budget rig for 2-4 years, think you can play a good bit on it.
No they aren't $200. 1660s can be bought all day long 115-140

Wasn't the Walmart HP for $400 a slicker deal?

There have been a lot of better deals. This system is just complete utter crap as it's and it's foolish to look at drinking another CPU or GPU in when you consider where your final price would be at $800+.

My oldest Ryzen is a 4th gen and if I had this box it would've been retired last year. Even for a gamer there are so many Ryzen be 5600g boxes for around $400 that with a GPU upgrade would cost less than this if you even need that GPU upgrade.

My garage computer has a better CPU than this. My outdoor pool computer could even give this a run for the money.

1660 super rigs have been on the $300-$400 range for months now. This isn't a good deal.

Go with the HP Victus 5700G/6600XT/32GB for $600 at Woot.

Do you have a link for this? I can't find it. I might missed out since this was over 2 weeks ago

Search "5700g" and look for HP Victus 15L.
