Keyboard, OS language

The description says the video card is a "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 4 GB GDDR6"

Doesn't the 1660 Super have 6GB? Or does this come with a different video card. Mmmm

checked one of the LTT reviews with a 9th gen processor,
like most prebuilds to save cost it uses a proprietary 6 pin connector and not standard ATX

To be fair, adapters can be bought on ebay for like $3... The bigger issue is the case does not have a way to mount a proper ATX PSU even if you do have the adapter...
Specs say its 500watts, so it should be ok if stick to 3060 if you decide to upgrade down the road.
