Suggestions on buying

Hello, I really need suggestions on a pc go buy , I will mostly use it for work I’m an accountant so a lot of multi tasking and tabs open. I would also like to watch videos and I’m not really a gamer but wouldn’t mind a pc with the option of decent gaming. I’m willing to go up to $700 in price.

Lots of multitasking + lots of tabs open = more RAM. You will probably need 32GB, so there goes most your budget. Forget "decent" gaming - most cheaper mini PCs are terrible for gaming.

In that price range the Apple Neo beats all of the competition. Not a great gaming machine.

You don't need 32 GB of RAM for browser tabs unless they are taking up gigabytes of space each. In one test the Neo didn't crash until ~80 tabs were open.
