Is this Gaming PC good for Fortnite gaming?

[CorrupteddSide]

Budget (including currency): $700(PC Only)

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Fortnite gaming

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Aiming for 144hz and up, and 1080p

I am going to get a new gaming pc soon, and I am trying to go for a budget PC. Could anyone help me by telling me if this cheap gaming PC is good for gaming (games such as Fortnite, Roblox)

 

Here is the gaming PC I am trying to get: https://www.amazon.com/SkyTech-Blaze-Gaming-Computer-Desktop/dp/B07RG8KM2C/ref=sr_1_13?dchild=1&keywords=gaming+pc&qid=1603504037&s=electronics&sr=1-13 

Is the power supply and motherboard good?

Thanks!

2600, 1650 and 8 gb ram for $699? Doesn't seem like a good deal at all. Could probably fit at least a 1650S and 16 gb ram for that place if you go custom.

The specs seem a bit lack luster for that price, where custom will make your dollars go farther.

i assume youre a kid. believe me that if you buy a case like this, that has zero airflow you are going to be ashamed of yourself in a few years no matter how cool you think this crap looks

This computer is 3 generations old, we're on ryzen 5000 while that's ryzen 2000.

It's only one since Ryzen 5000 hasn't released, and with ryzen 5000 it would be 2 not 3 since ryzen 5000 is the 4th generation of AMD cpu's not the 5th.

I would recommend building your own computer to be quite honest, plus this build I put together has 3rd gen ryzen and a better case, power supply, and more ram.

It's $50 more than that prebuilt and you can learn new skills while building this. Linus also has a ton of build guides so it should be relatively straight forward.

I'd be more concerned with the dust, the airflow seems half decent since the front, there's a gap between the fans and the front panel so the airflow is actually decent.  And I doubt he's going to be ashamed of anything, it's just a PC.

Just because you can't buy one, doesn't mean that they didn't exists.

And a new generation being announced does mean that the previous Gens are older, and as such a worse value than when there were available new, which is the point I'm trying to hammer in.

They are made on the exact same Zen 2 architecture with Renoir cores, therefore they are not a different generation.

this PC is better than it in basically every way for over $100 cheaper. Newer motherboard, dual channel ram, better graphics card, faster CPU, decent PSU, good airflow, 500GB M.2 SSD so that you don't have to worry about wires.
