Good deal or wait for prices to go down on GPU's

[AzureDragon89]

looking for some opinions With the current Trend in not being able to find a GPU and in need of a new pc i found this and want to know if its worth getting for the price looking to play a few pc games on it running a 1080P 1440hz monitor

I'm planning on upgrading parts from this unit down the road if needed just don't see many other options at the moment

Specification quite good, should let you play at desired resolution/refresh without problem.

The specs are good on that one, the problem I'd have is spending $1,000+ on a system with tech that's already been replaced. In this case, you'd be paying for an i7 7xxx based system when the i7 8xxx are out. From a strictly performance point of view it doesn't matter, but for me it would matter. I don't mind buying something older, but I won't pay top dollar for it.

In general I'm against buying pre-builts but right now I have to admit is an example of an exception to that rule. Because of the crazy pricing going on out there, pre-builts are the way to go for the best deals if you need a computer now.

I would recommend changing the power supply, to a quality one, as that HEC unit is junk.
