I was looking for a decent PC for two monitors, office work (Microsoft Office, email, etc) and maybe some light gaming

The price has gone up now but I bought the Dell Inspiron 3881 late last night for $829 including delivery, specs:

Processor: 10th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-10700 processor(8-Core, 16M Cache, 2.9GHz to 4.8GHz)
OS: Windows 10 Home English
Videocard: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 SUPER™ 4GB GDDR6
Memory: 8GB, 8Gx1, DDR4, 2933MHz
Hard drive: 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive
360W EPA Black Chassis

Here's a link to the one I got

Can anyone tell me if this will suit my needs and if it was a good deal? I still maybe able to cancel

Appreciate any help!

  What games are you planning to play? I can play a surprising amount of games on my laptop with worse specs

    The Forest, Diablo 2 remastered (when it comes out). I dont care if its not ultra high settings just as long as its playable/looks half decent

      You should be fine, your PC specs are more than enough. Just be aware, that 512GB SSD can fill up fast if you play a few games.

  I'd say it's more than good for your needs, though you might want to grab another 8GB stick as well.

      Preferably the same model stick, but if you need to, you can mix-match brands and specs (to a certain extent).

    You'd definitely want another stick. Running single channel RAM will bottleneck the system
