I am also getting older and realized after building my own PC recently, I would have saved a lot of time and headache just buying a prebuilt. The extra $100-150 is worth not trouble shooting or wiring cables after spending an hour or two putting it together.

16 year old me had no issue rewiring cables, researching "the best" components, and overclocking. But now I just want to play games, which I barely have enough time for as it is!
I used to think that way, but my next one is gonna be pre-built. Sure I can and have done many DIY, but the time it takes to research, get all compatible required parts, build, setup, troubleshoot, etc is just too much of a hassle. I'm getting too old for that stuff.
Maybe I'm being unreasonable, but this would have been an instant buy at around $770.

At $850, it's just too close to all of the i7 deals that have been posted lately.

32GB of RAM is a nice inclusion, but the B660 is lackluster. Maybe if it had a 4060 Ti.

Any recommendation for a best value desktop purchase cheaper than this if my GFX requirement is around a 3060/3060ti and 16gig ram? CPU is not as critical. This would be for iracing with VR. Would rather it be SFF but that comes with a price so at least not massive would be good enough.

A 3060 isn't going to be comparatively cheaper in the current market unless you happen to find a refurbished deal.

A few have popped up on eBay from Acer, but the listings are very convoluted.

Moreover, frame generation is worth choosing a 4060 over a 3060, especially for VR.

As far as SFF goes, that's just out of the question.

If you are considering this I would suggest you look at this Lenovo LOQ for almost $100 less with 14th gen processor and DDR5 (though only 16GB): https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/de...90wy0000us . May not be as upgradeable or have as good of thermals but seems like better deal for the money on a prebuilt.
That Lenovo also has half the storage and no room for upgrades.

I'd spend a bit more and get something with more headroom: https://slickdeals.net/share/android_app/fp/949989

Edit: Looks like this one expired. Definitely use it as a baseline comparison for future deals.

No reason to out B660 board and ddr4 ram just to save a few dollars

How does this compare to the Dell XPS8960 for $990?
For some moderate gaming and video editing. The XPS8960 has more powerful CPU and GPU. Everything else is less. Does it worth for the extra dollars?

That's only relevant if there's components to carry forward into a new build to begin with.

These prebuilts are all priced as appliances with little room for upgrades.

If you want a multi-generational system, the case and power supply wattage have to have enough headroom to allow for whatever comes next.

Otherwise, you're better off just sticking with prebuilts.

I love the price on this. I love the specs on the Lenovo beast in the other thread. I think this may work....if it's still available. Specs like this. I'd like something that would last a few years then I can make it limp along. I don't mind adding a video card later or maybe ram but beyond that nah.

To meet all your asks in an impactful way, you're probably looking at another $500.

There's a bunch of Dell XPS models on clearance right now and an extra $150 would net you a 13th Gen i7 with a 4060Ti. However, the trade offs on that model make it less appealing. It only has 16GB of DDR5, 512GB of storage, and the power supply has no headroom for switching to a better card later on.

Waiting probably won't change the landscape much, unless you target October to start looking.

There's still 12th Gen/3000 series deals that pop up every so often, so it seems like it's going to take another 6 months minimum for all these 13th Gen deals to filter through.

I'm eyeballing that Lenovo deal.

I would only go pre built if the cost is under DIY, and that is not the case here.

For reference, I just did essentially this same build but with an i7 12700k for about $100 less.
What parts could you get cheaper than this? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bkfnvj
