There are sooooooooooooooo many prebuilts for that price. Good luck finding something. Your best chance to find what you need is to go to a local store, though.

Well, good luck. If going to a local store isn't an option, have fun sorting through the sea of desktops on Amazon.

@TechMan2175 What are you going to be using it for? Is this just for the PC, or the whole setup? Are you OK with buying used? Where do you live?

Used i5/i7 Optiplex with a 1050 and maybe a new PSU.

Agree with above. Probably won't need a new PSU. Any Low Profile gt 1030/gtx1050/ti should work with most Optiplex's

 

Or a full height one. Depends on what Optiplex you buy.
