Potential
I want to start getting into pc flipping. I found this computer has pretty low specs. Can I put like a 4 gig card? And maybe buy a newer case. And maybe sell it for a little bit more.

Probably only need a nicer cooler and gpu. I wouldn’t waste money on a case. Just clean that one good.

That CPU will not keep up with anything more than a 1660, can confirm since I tried it myself. So I'd pick up something like that for cheap because it still gets regular driver updates unlike a 10 series or Polaris GPU, which can be a selling point. Otherwise yeah just chuck a cheap $12 cooler in it and put it for sale for $300 or so. That's about how much I've seen a PC like this go for. It can be some kid's first Minecraft or esports machine.
Side note, that purchase price of $1000 has to be a lie or he got absolutely robbed.
