Wow this is a great deal for a kids computer. Only thing you need to be careful of is the GPU and the pcie 3.0 you need to make sure you have at least 8 lanes on your GPU. Some budget gpus skimped on the lanes and it will hurt performance in this system.

Are there a lot of people who build their own PC's and don't use a separate GPU?And I still have 3 generations of old GPU's laying around, so if my current one were to fail, I'd have something like my old 1070 to hold me over.
Depends , for my server and Torrent machines integrated GPU's are fine! But it is true I have several old GPU's I could use in a pinch.
Thanks for the iGPU heads up. Shame it's missing - neighbor kid was looking to build but only has a $300 budget.No iGPU kills my plan to go with this setup.😔
$300 budget I would grab a Beelink with a Ryzen and call it a day if he has no parts. IF he is upgrading you could grab a 5600G, mobo and ram.
I've been highly considering this bundle to pair with a 1070 I got kicking around to use towards a travel LAN rig.
I put this together just today for a friend with a gtx 1060 6gb card and it's running very smoothly on w11. He is very happy and I was content with the performance, especially for the price. He was upgrading from an AM2 machine so it was a welcomed upgrade to AM4 in that regard.
