Whats a Desktop Deal:

There are many factors you need to take into account in order to make something a deal. Manufacturer, Product line, Specs and warranty are usually what to look at when figuring that out. You need to consider prices as well, sometimes you get a price so hot that it doesn't matter what company it is.

Generally speaking here are the guidelines for Intel processors:

i3 8th Gen processor - Under $300 is usually a hot deal, Under $350 is decent
i5 8th Gen Processor - Under $400 is a Usually a Hot Deal
i7 8th Gen Processor - Under $600 is a Usually Hot Deal

to be continued....

Hi I'm looking for a new business desktop, I use it primarily for Internet  but I have a lot of tabs and browsers open at once. I'm willing to spend up to $1000

These systems actually have 4 Slots for RAM, which means you can add additional 16GB without removing any of the existing RAM Modules.
