If that's the motherboard it comes with (Asus prime b550) this is not junk.

That said I want off this timeline where AM4 is desirable again due to cost. I say this while still running a 5950X and recently built systems with the 5500, 5600G and 5700X.

I mean no disrespect to the OP and his efforts. But I just don't get it. TUs keep going higher on this deal. I just don't see what can possibly excite people into paying $630 for this configuration? Can't be the CPU or the GPU. It's gotta be the RGBs that make up for the abysmal performance.

From what I understand it's not the worst thing. It's not like 5000 series CPUs are even a little slow. It'd definitely be a lot worse if CPUs like the 5600 were horrid

Atp I would say it's just the fact that this build exists at this price. Wouldn't cost much to flip the CPU and GPU and put more capable parts in; even a 5070 would turn this into an excellent piece of kit

Haven't shopped PC parts lately I see.

You can't build a comparable PC for this price.

The am4 5500 is old but serviceable but the 6500XT is slooooow. Hell an old 3060 will blow it away.
