First off, the ryzen 5 5500 is a compromised cpu in two important ways: pcie support and L3 cache size. The 5500 only supports pcie gen3 (the current pcie gen is gen5, gen4 is considered mainstream even for budget tier at this point). This means pcie gen4 ssds will be limited to gen 3 speeds, and future generations of gpus with a cut down number of pcie lanes may be bottle-necked by pcie bandwidth. Moving on to the L3 cache, the 5500 has only 16mb of L3 cache, which is half as much as the budget 6 core ryzen 5 5600. This leads to significantly worse gaming performance in most games, with average performance easily trailing the 5600 (which is amd's last gen second lowest tier cpu that sells for ~$120 on sale) by over 15% when compared using a 6950xt (the difference would be greater when compared with a more powerful gpu). If your intention is to use this system for gaming this cpu is subpar. Obviously, 6 slow last gen cores will have terribly multithreaded performance, so this system is very poor for productivity. Also, keep in mind that as a zen 4 system there is no ddr5 support.
The following specs I'm listing come from a review on the walmart page, so I can't personally confirm their accuracy:
The motherboard is a gigabyte b550 UD AC, which is a budget oriented board. And yes, for the person asking above, it has 4 dimm slots. Here's a link to the gigabyte page so you can peruse the specs, be aware that I can't confirm which revision is in this prebuilt: https://www.gigabyte.co
The power supply is a Thermaltake Smart 600w, so nothing special but at least it's not from a no-name brand and likely to fry your system. A 600w power supply using the previous gen atx spec will likely not be sufficient for any major cpu/gpu upgrade. The ssd is a wd black sn750 SE 1TB. The sn750 is a lower midrange older pcie gen4 model which lacks dram and should have acceptable but not good performance (particularly when stuck on pcie gen3). The RAM is two sticks of GeIL EVO Potenza DDR4 8GB with red heat sinks. It is PC4-28800 CL 18-22-22-42. I'm not really familiar with GeIL memory personally, from what I've seen they're a smaller manufacturer which is mildly popular as a budget option in European markets.
The rx 6700 is an excellent value video card for gaming. That being said, it's a bit slower and has only 10gb of vram vs the 12gb on the 6700xt which goes on sale for $300, so it's really not worth more than $270 brand new at most.
Overall, I'd personally avoid this system at this price bracket, as there are far better options for only slightly more, and there have been sporadic deals for systems as good or better for cheaper.

That said i have bought multiple CPPC builds over 20 years. All have been reliable no issues. They care about their builds i think
It's a fine 1080p gaming machine at 60-75fps. CPPCs are upgradeable and use decent parts.
I've been happy with my CPPC build from a few years ago. One of the m2 slots in my nephews CPPC died and took the SSD with it (or vice versa). Other than that, it's been as solid as my PC.
