this but unironically I think it's a good deal. Put bazzite on it and you have a big ugly steam machine that can be upgraded

Sell the 8gb card and use the money to get a 16gb 9060xt, add another 16gb stick for around a $100 and you have a very decent 1440p machine for around $1000. The 5600 is still good enough to not bottleneck the 16gb 9060xt at 2k. You also have a little wiggle room with cpu upgrades.

If you cant afford a decent am5 system, that is what I would do if you have any interest in playing modern games at modern resolutions/frame rates.

How is this a Slick deal? If it had a modern processor or 32GB of RAM or came from a reputable manufacturer or the PSU wasn't absolutely dog dookie or or or or OR OR then, maybe, MAYBE it'd be a good deal.

But it IS dog dookie.

Old hardware with modern pricing? This isn't even a deal. Let alone the original $1300 price?!
