So I'm most definitely a noob with custom pc's, and definitely not a hardcore gamer. But I have been getting into it a little more with my boys as they've gotten older. My refurb old gen i7 with a geforce 1060 just died and I'm looking for something new, but not too crazy. Something $1000-$1500. I'm curious if I could get some reviews on this and suggestions for something better if this is overpriced or overkill. Also using this as the main pc for the wife and I. TIA

 
@Radtech81951 there's some obvious redflags with that prebuilt as in no mention of the make & model of the psu and motherboard not to mention that case is below par to say the least. If you don't want to mess with building your own PC which is easy as pie these days with all the youtube vids along with tech boards such as this one you can call around to local mom & pop PC / laptop repair shops and find out how much they will charge to put it together for you after you order the components yourself so you know exactly what you are getting. If you can hold on until April the new Nvidia RTX 4060 and 4070 video cards will be released.
