You can actually get for a few dollars on ebay/amazon a Power Board Dual PSU Multiple Power Supply Adapter that allows you to just add another PSU to your system. It will be on the outside, but very simple to add additional power supply.
So it's good for 99% of users.
The 5600G is very capable. It's as fast of a processor as anyone who isn't actively doing high arithmetic stuff on their CPU constantly will actually need. Read that as: If you do 3D CAD, or engineering analyses, get an i7/R7. For anything else, such as occassional video encoding, this is great.

I don't know why that guy was bashing 3-year-old tech. It's as snappy in almost all usage as an new i9 and pretty much its equal in gaming. That's why Intel and AMD are hurting--there's no legitimate reason to update a 5-year-old i5/R5.

Gaming performance: https://www.tomshardware.com/revi...,4312.html
Sure, some chips are faster, but if you're pushing 100+ frames per second, then you're limited by your monitor or graphics card.

It is worth looking into whether this system fits a typical PCI-e graphics card. I know the HP Pavilions with the same 5600G a year earlier came with the RX 5600 discrete cards. It's probably the same motherboard and power supply, but you never know.

Exactly.

I'll try to summarize

This is a fine computer for most everyday users.

If you are mapping the human genome or entering the Call of Duty World Championship, look elsewhere.

Don't be scared to buy the technology you need. Not the technology that someone else thinks you should have. It has a 1TB spinning drive and 256GB SSD. Who cares what generation of this or that? Reading your email and posting to Facebook will not challenging this system no matter what size PSU it has.

If you're like 95% of the population and never plan to remove the screws from the case, don't be deterred. This machine will last you for several years and is sub $400.

I think there is a lot of talking past each other going on here.

Folks said from the start that this desktop will work for people with simple needs, limited budget, and no ambition to upgrade.

There has since been a debate about how great this desktop could be with it without various upgrades. But you're right. Again it's a fine deal if you have under $400 to spend -- TOTAL -- and have simple needs. I would NOT spend another dime on trying to upgrade it. If you have more to spend and want more performance than this provides, buy a different desktop.

I agree. Just see too many of these conversations where some think they can buy a sub $400 PC and are repeatedly shocked that they can't easily turn it into a top of the line gaming PC. There is nothing in the marketing and sale of this type of entry line machine that suggests that it is pathway to more than it was intended to be. Equally annoyed that many suggest that you can't edit Hollywood movies or calculate NASA reentry vectors with a $369 computer. Seems like that would be obvious.

It looks like there's a plastic knockout where I could slot in a dvd drive? Think I could also fit one more HDD in there?

not with with 180w psu lol
180W? Wow...that's barely suitable for the CPU and motherboard. Nope, no basic discrete graphics can go with that.

I'd nevertheless wait for 8600G release. New AMD iGPU seems to be up to 2.5 times faster.
That'll be a $600 system, but probably worth it if you game.

If you game, you need to add a discrete GPU to this, but apparently the PSU is only 180W and it can't handle any graphics. If you don't game, then this is better.

2.5" ssd should be OK. 3.5" spinning HDD is questionable.

I never understood the logic in this.... Is there some scam they are trying to prevent by doing this? What do they care what the "normal" price is if the out the door price is what they are actually selling it for?

Okay...but that discrete GPU is weaker than the integrated. I guess I did say "basic". But what I meant was that even most chips without an auxiliary connector still draw 75W, which is probably too high to add to this.

Could I toss in a GPU and be gaming? Seems like a good deal. The GPU is kind of large
