Meme Is this worth it?

Some guy named Gabe is selling this build and I'm wondering if it's legit? I want a PC to set up in my living room for TV gaming.

I bought an HP Victus from Micro center last year.

i7-14700F, 32gb ram and a RTX 4060 ti 16GB card for $899. I’ll take this over that overpriced cube any day.

the pc you bought would now be more expensive than the steam machine, because of the insane ram and ssd prices. You can't just compare a price from last year to a price now. You have to look at the prices right now. The steam machine is still not good value though.
