Welcome to the community!
Honestly, in today’s market that’s not a bad deal (prices seem to jump up in the past week or two). It’s a little unbalanced — the GPU is definitely stronger than the CPU, and 16GB of RAM isn’t ideal anymore — but it’ll absolutely work, and RAM is one of the easiest upgrades you can make later.
The best part of that PC is you’re getting ontoAM5 platform. That opens the door for future CPU upgrades without rebuilding the whole system. You’d likely be able to upgrade into future Ryzen generations too, not just the current 9000 series.
So if you mainly want a great GPU now and a good upgrade path later, I don’t think it’s a bad move at all.
Unless you’re willing to build it yourself a more rounded system is gonna probably run your in the $1900 range
