Is getting a 4060 prebuilt in 2026 a bad idea? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I'm looking at this deal for a prebuilt:

Lenovo LOQ 17IRR9 Tower PC — $749.99

  • Intel Core i5-14400F (10 cores, 16 threads, up to 4.7GHz)
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 (8GB GDDR6)
  • RAM 16GB DDR5
  • 512GB SSD
  • PSU 500W

For some context, my PC has a 1070 in it. I'm a budget conscious gamer, usually playing at 1080p. With ram prices skyrocketing and steam betting on steam machines with low vram going forwards, I feel like it's an okay deal for a guy who upgrades basically never.

It seems like a nice deal to me. Anyone want to talk me out of it?

It's a bit of a toss up. If I go with ddr4, I can probably build something with a similar cost, maybe just a tiny bit more. I guess it might be silly to buy now. I'm kind of anxious about the price of PC parts.
