You can get much more powerful Zen 2 or Zen 3 PC for the same price.
While I don't think this is a particularly great PC, it's heaps better for about $300 after the coupon.

That PC above is Zen 2+, has an 8 core / 16 thread CPU, and the same size SSD and 16GB DDR4 RAM. Please don't buy this Acemagic when better options exist. It's old stock AceMagic is trying to dump. Neither PC will be good for gaming, but at least the V2748 PC will be good for productivity.

If you are using it primarily as a HTPC, Intel dominates.
If you are casual PC gaming, AMD is best of breed.
If you are just streaming Netflix and maybe emulating classic games, some cheaper ARM based platform is probably the answer. Or a cheap ARM for emulation and then something like a Fire stick, presuming your TV doesn't have streaming apps built in.
If one blindly uses that, then suffer the possibility of any consequences.
If one is determined to use Windows, then a fresh install from verified M$ sources is the means to be rid of it. One temporary exception is to boot the Windows they ship with a local only 'temporary' account (i.e. no internet access), and backup any unique drivers for the re-installation (double driver works great for this).
Wiping the disk(s) and installing Linux is even better.
