I agree with the recommendation to get a tower just for the ease of upgrades and repairs Plus you can customize components more readily. While a 1TB solid state drive is pretty costly right now, the trend is for prices to decrease, so you can upgrade later. Or if your tower will accommodate two drives, get a smaller SSD for the operating system and primary programs, and a standard drive for the data.

The OP provided no information that would lead anyone to conclude that anything other than a basic system is needed. An I7 would certainly not be called for based on what was posted.

Thank you all for responses. I do need the Microsoft Office Suite. I am still researching but all posts were informative.

I would rather spend $600 on a used Mac than the same on a new PC. I run Excel and Word on mine. I upgraded to SSd drive and made everything so much faster. I recommend a SSD drive. (stores data on chips vs. platters). But for PCs, ceck these out:
