Appreciate any help!

Prebuilt (as in, you buy it and it arrives assembled and ready to go) or self-building, where you buy the parts and assemble yourself?

1k USD?

And it's 1k for just the PC tower, or do you need the monitor as well within the budget? What monitor is being used if you have it already?

The short answer is yes, but knowing the above will help with specific suggestions. :)
