Looking for a desktop that has a good graphics card and all the essentials that requires minimal work/add ons. I saw this one but im not sure if I can get something better for around that price.

That's not really a stellar price. Newegg has the same PC for $799 and there's no tax! :)https://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100019096%204814%20601304710%20601286692%20600030537%20601195636%20601195638%20601281510%20601295206%20601306274%20601205853&IsNodeId=1&bop=And&Order=PRICE&PageSize=36

 

 

This isn't an insane deal either, but if I had to buy something right now, I'd go this route.

+Free 1060 GTX Upgrade

+600 watt EVGA power plus PSU

+SSD of your choice

 

If you can wait, I'd check slickdeals.net daily for PC deals and get something that's a real deal if it can wait. For example, I saved $100 off of my ram alone.

That Cyberpower pc has a worse video card for a higher price. Was also looking at this one tbh,

I am not in a super rush but the sooner the better and if I see an insane deal it can be bought immediately.

The cyberpower you have to upgrade to the 1060GTX but its free. The CPU cooling is much better and you can overclock the processor to run much faster. 

 

I don't see much airflow into the case. The 1060 will likely run very hot in there. Same with the CPU with the stock heatsink.

 

I check slickdeals daily for crap. If I see something I'll post here if you don't update this saying you bought something.

That would be greatly appreciated I am not experienced in computer building as you so I do appreciate your time and input =)

I would like to be $1000 or under seeing as I don't actually play as much as I would like to due to crazy work hours =( thank you for your help if you see anything as good around the price range please LMK

Hey man, good deals have been far and few between with GPU prices sky high. I did find two decent deals.

8700 processor with 1080 GTX for $1421

8400 processor with 1070 GTX for $1174

 

The computer you posted at Best Buy is now about $80 off. 1070 GTX will be much more powerful, but the one you posted will be over 100% better than what you have. Any of them will be a significant upgrade using a discrete video card.
