This pre-built PC looks like what I want, but I want to make sure there isn't something wrong with it.

This is my first post so please bear with me. I found this PC on CyberPowerPC's website and it seems to be around my budget and have what I want.
http://cyberpowerpc.com

I just want to know if this seems like a good deal or if there is something I am missing about this PC. Also, can anyone tell me if it will support DVI? I don't see that info anywhere. Also, I changed the graphics card from 3gb to 6gb in the options. I thought that might be something I should do.

Same price after his video card upgrade (if he just got the FE edition this one is faster with better cooling) with better quality parts and proper size SSD.

As of now it has the cheapest memory they can have made for then you need to change that from or major brand to a major brand like GSkills or Corsair.
You also need to get a real power supply not the cheapest pile of garbage they can have made for them. The 550 watt XFX TS or the 650 watt corsair CXM will work.
If you hit the little information icon on the video card it will give you all the information you need.
On a side note don't expect it to look like the picture because you have no case lighting.

The memory states Corsair or major brand. If the stated no nome power supply is sli ready, he will probably be ok. Yeah, that 2400 memory will hold him back from system tweaking and overclocking and maximizing the full potential of Ryzen.. It is a budget system though. I do not know if the have a faster memory option available. All an all, not a bad budget system.

Not a clue where you get your information at have you ever seen or worked on a Cyberjunk PC?
when it says major brand or Corsair you get the cheapest crap they can have made for them and ALL their power supplies (Standard are just overrated garbage)

This is a budget system at a budget price. For the money spent, it is not a bad deal. If he wants higher quality components he can spend more money or just do the build himself. He is spending his money . You want him to buy higher quality components.....send him a check.

It looks like you guys need to steer him to another vendor source then for his prebuilt system. If he is still following this thread, he should be scared to death to purchase from cyber power.

Thanks for the answers guys! I just wanted to point out that the storage is actually a 120 ssd + 1 TB HD combo. Also, personally, I don't consider a +$1000 PC build a "budget system" or "budget price" which is why I made this thread in the first place. In the end, I have decided I will not get this PC and will instead just build my own so that I know exactly what's going into it and what to expect.

1 more question though, I don't want to mess with liquid cooling. Is that fine or will it be a problem? I planned on just doing fans

That's just 2 different drives they sell as one line item on your invoice.
It does not impart any magical properties.

And good deal in deciding to build your own. Many benefits from that, even if it is exactly the same price.

We know that. a 120GB SSD will work as long as you know very well how to redirect everything you can away from it. the 1TB hard drive again would be the cheapest they could have made for them.
They say they test every PC but in all honesty their more like if it boots it ships and usually are not even set up properly in BIOS or stress tested like they say they do.
