If it weren't for stagnation in the 4000 series pricing, you may have been able to pick this up for under $700.
Regardless, it would be hard to build something close to this price without seriously skimping on a lot of components or having to assemble it piecemeal as deals get posted.
With that said, it looks like prices on prebuilts are trending up and the release of the 5000 series may have zero impact on the price of the 4060 (at least until the 5060 comes out later this year). It might be worth buying this and sitting on it to see what happens.

At $650 this would be compelling.

The 4060 is still faster across the board. Plus, you miss out on playing around with RT.
At $650, they're selling it at cost. $699 would be way more likely if prices on everything weren't about to go through the roof.

Nobody is buying a 4060 or 7600 for ray tracing, its a moot point. Nvidia is the play if you want RT, but this card isnt it. If you enjoy playing Cyberpunk on medium to low at 1080p60(probably less) fps and relying on dlss and frame generation, I guess it works. They are both solid 1080/1440 cards, nothing more nothing less. If you care about that level of fidelity, you are looking for something in the 4070 range bare minimum, realistically a 4080.
Bottom line to people on a budget, this is a lukewarm deal, keep your eye out unless you are desperate for an entry level system right now.

Are there any other modules that are compatible with this RAM, which I can add to this computer.
Appreciate people's response

I haven't needed an i7 since I ran structural analyses working in engineering. One could argue it could benefit some of my video editing, but I only compile one or two videos a month, so it would be for fun more than utility.
