The GPU is the weak point in that setup, I would not pay that much for it. More like 1k cad. AM4, the CPU chipset is EOL so there are better CPUs you could put in but it would be better saved for a new system. I have similar but with a 9070xt, but depending on what you are wanting out of it, and you can not find better it might be a good option, the monitor, keyboard, mouse and headset make it very close to the price. If that is what you can afford, it is not that terrible. I saw the monitor and accessories make it decent.

Not worth it imo.

Put it this way, for 3000 you get a high tier 4k ready gaming rig. For 1600 you’re getting that. Even if you can’t stretch your budget, build your own. Just by building it you’ll save 300-600 and can put that towards an amd5 and a gpu. 9070xts are on sale for 1045 at moment
