**The Great PC Showdown: Wish.com vs Craigslist**

In a shocking turn of events, two rival PC systems faced off in the ultimate showdown. One was purchased on the popular online marketplace Wish.com, while the other was acquired through Craigslist. The stage was set for a battle of performance, price, and prestige.

**The Wish.com Winner: A Core i9 Beast**

First up, we have the PC from Wish.com. Priced at just over $100, this behemoth boasts a Core i9 10900K processor, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super graphics card, 32GB of RAM, and two 1TB storage drives. The specs are impressive, to say the least. But is it worth the price?

**The Craigslist Challenger: A Ryzen 3 Runner-Up**

On the other side of the ring, we have a PC from Craigslist. Priced at $350 (plus an additional $190 for a separate graphics card), this system features a Ryzen 3 3200G processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD, along with a massive 1.5TB hard drive.

**The Benchmarks: A Tale of Two PCs**

To determine the true winner, we put both systems through their paces using benchmarking software. The results were astonishing. The Wish.com PC scored an impressive 3651 in the multicore test, while the Craigslist system lagged behind with a score of just 540.

**The GPU Showdown: A 1050 Ti Tussle**

But wait, there's more! The Craigslist PC was missing a crucial component - a graphics card. In a bold move, our host borrowed a 1050 Ti from the office to see if it would make a difference. The results were... mixed.

**The Final Verdict: A Wish.com Victory?**

In the end, it all came down to the price-performance ratio. While both systems had their strengths and weaknesses, the Wish.com PC emerged as the winner in this epic showdown. Its impressive specs and relatively low price made it the clear champion.

But don't count out the Craigslist challenger just yet! With a little creativity (and a borrowed graphics card), even the most unlikely of PCs can turn out to be a winner.
