So I have a lot of giftcards from my job. Looking for something prebuilt nothing crazy $700-$1000 please give options.

Literally 1 minute of searching and I found something better than an apu computer for less. Just buy an ssd which runs cheap these days and stick it in as a boot drive. It has a 120GB ssd, good enough for an OS and a small game. Also, just my two cents after dealing with an HP laptop for like 4 years, HP sucks. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Lenovo-Legion-Ryzen-7-1800x-1TB-AMD-RX-570-Desktop-Computer/790132137

Edit: Spent a few more minutes searching, there are like 2 options with better cpus but no gpu at ~$800 and a 1080p gpu is going to run for like ~$200 new, or like ~100 on ebay for an rx 580/gtx 1060. I'd go with what I linked above if you want a plug in and play system, though the rx 570 may need you to crank some settings from high to medium. Not all, but some.

I've compiled a really nice list of components for a workstation PC (that also can handle gaming really well) and the nice thing is, it's under $800.

It has NVME storage, GeForce 1060 6GB GC, the latest AMD Ryzen 5 3600, 16GB of RAM, and a crap ton of good stuff.

Should you buy a prebuild? I would if I didn't have the time to build one, or don't want to mess up, but at the end of the day, you might run into problems prebuild or you-build, so there's really no excuse for not building it yourself. You'd get experience building a PC and you'd save yourself tons of money from the initial build and from paying labor when you upgrade (cuz you'd know how to build a PC by then and where your parts are and which parts need upgrades).

Rule number 1 of PC gaming:
Don't buy a prebuild
Not looking for a gaming computer, I don't play video games really. I don't remember mentioning in my thread this was for gaming....

You can probably save more money by changing the gtx 1060 (Nvidia) for an rx 580 (AMD) which performs better and is usually cheaper
I already bought it for $210 when it was on sale last Black Friday. Is it the best decision that I've ever made? Debatable. Now it's just sitting there till I can buy the rest next month. xD

I'd get the cost refunded from one of my companies, so I don't really care about the extra $20-$30.

If all the parts are at walmart I can build it, the thing is using the large number of gift cards I have.

You can buy them all at Walmart. Heck, it's just a smaller and more expensive version of Amazon and Newegg. Just be aware that you'll probably spend more money than you should necessarily spend.

I would buy some of your parts that don't have a significant difference with other sites, then buy the rest somewhere cheaper. Save the rest to buy food or other stuff. :)

you guys are all missing one of the most important aspects. He's not asking if it's a good idea or such... he says he already has giftcards from his job.... if he already has walmart giftcards then buying a prebuilt from walmart might be a decent option sheesh
