Yes. That thing basically outclasses most computers you can build new for the same money. You would have to go used to beat that price by a significant amount.

Mine sharing a link to the store this is being sold at? I'd love to confirm if these specs are real or a misprint by the advertising department...

I'm pretty sure that's Walmart's deal. 1060 is the 3GB one.

Yup, looks like it's got only a 300w power supply in it. Really decent price, but you're not upgrading the GPU without upgrading the PSU at the same time in that thing. All in, it's actually a great deal for the price as it is, and you do have a free SATA port to throw in an SSD if you want to reinstall Windows and quintuple the boot speed.
