My only thought is the video card. You'll want more vram. I have the same cpu along with the amd 7900xt (20 gig), 64 ram,  and it works well.

Interesting.  This is approximately how much the parts would cost if you build it out yourself today.

My computer is another one by IBuyPower. The build quality was good.

@Fielder Would you know if BestBuy can do upgrades to the PC at the time of purchase eg. more and faster RAM memory, no keyboard and mouse, and 16 GB GPU?

Bestbuy has a Geek Squad in every store (repair) but I seriously doubt that they are going to swap parts before purchase.

 

OK here's another that is advertised as "coming soon" inside my local Best Buy that does have 16GB RAM GPU. It's $2350. "Coming soon" because it is 5070 instead of 4070.

Also, is Skytech (a better reputation)

IBuyPower is good. Skytech is very good. CyberPower is only fair to good quality.

For sure.  12GB in 2025 is just wrong.

Are you implying that MS2024 needs 16GB video ram????
