I built this one with an i9 Intel processor, 64gig DDR4 Ram, 1- 1tb and 1 - 2tb hard drives, Radeon Graphic card with 8gig vram. SOOOOOOO much cheaper to buy the parts, case, power supply etc and assemble than to purchase pre-made with a bunch of garbage you may not need.
Only 2 things to really watch out for... Static with memory and hard drives and the gel on the processor... You want to make sure you get a good covering without overflow onto the motherboard.
I'm sure there are videos on YouTube that can walk you through it.... Once you do it, you will never buy a pre-made system again. ;)

This is for a mom user with medical issues 10,000 miles from where I live in another country.. So she'll be getting premade with a support package

for anyone else yeah I agree build your own.
Budget is 1k but trying to get a i5, 8gb ram, 1tb ssd lowend new graphics card (GTX 1660 or the likes) and i5 processor
BestBuy.ca she says she can get too locally "Owatta" and they have some good deals but all their sub $1500 systems come with 256 gb ssd
refurbished all have 1tb ssd's I dunno why they don't put them in the new ones..
