You won't be able to do ultra, but you can do high at 1080p30fps in most every modern game pretty easily for that price. 1080p 60fps for a solid chunk of them too.

Your point still stands though; you're still better off spending 1000$ so that you don't end up shooting yourself in the foot with regards to upgradeability, which is one of the big reasons people want a PC in the first place.

That's still better than consoles can run most native games too lul. People always use the argument that consoles 'just work' at max graphics as a selling point when it's rarely the case. Almost every new game has issues on release that need to be fixed and even after some never run at max.
