i saw this gaming rig on walmart’s website. here’s the link:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/SkyTech-Gaming-ArchAngel-Eli...

i wanted to know,
is this a good deal? also, there was some speculation about walmart PSU’s and how they are very cheap and won’t even last a year. is it true? also, i have a rig at home and i wanted an upgrade but there’s some things i have in my old that are better than the ones in the walmart one. for example the memory. can i swap out my memory for the memory walmart put in? because mine is better. also, can i swap my PSU in for walmart’s PSU

no they are not good deals. You can get better PCs from other vendors.

Steve just went through the whole thing and its crap don't do it very overpriced look for a system from another more reputable company if you want a pre built he even said he would look at a dell first before he would consider this them they even sent him the cheap model after he spent 2500 on the top spec one. the motherboards/PSUs are crap is the biggest issue they have fire hazard Great Wall power supply should come with a fire extinguisher.
