[Suggestion] New Computer - Simple Web Browsing, Document Writing, and Light Gaming

Hello. I'm looking to buy a new desktop.

I generally like the HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop 690-00xx (16.0 GB) that I bought in 2018 but it's gotten considerably slower because it doesn't update Windows.

I'd like to purchase a similar type of desktop but a new model that runs Windows 11 and runs at least as fast, if not faster, than my current desktop in terms of performing core functions (web browsing, document creation, etc.) and some light gaming (I only play 1 game - Quake Live - which came out in 2008, although I'd like to have the option of playing Quake Champions, which came out in 2017, both are Steam products).

I'd love to keep the price below $850 (not including tax) but I'm not opposed to going higher if necessary.

Thanks so much!

Thanks. But you have Windows 10 listed as the OS. I’m looking for Windows 11.
