Computer Science is a "show me" field where your track record and proving you can do it is more important than anything else. For a Doctorate in Computer Science, I wouldn't be worried about a school being nationally accredited unless I had a goal of teaching at a University (which most people don't), and unless the $60K RA programs are from well-known schools with top reps, I doubt you're going to get much more mileage out of those. There is this idea out there that HR and hiring managers are just readily rejecting all non-RA degrees, but nothing could be further from the truth. If anything, that idea is negated by the high number of fake degree holders that are gainfully employed and well-paid, even brazen enough to display their fake degrees on LinkedIn.
I think you'll be okay.
