I did my research and ended up purchasing this back in November of 2022, reason being, its not a all decked out RGB PC Tower nor is it just a enclosed box that has a port in the front or top or maybe nothing at all and thats it (Can't even tell that its a PC or not even a power LED light showing its on) This ASUS tower is just a simple tower, very polished, clean, minimal and perfect, like it came from the 90's era of PC towers but its black instead with the modern ports that are used today. Also as a bonus, it comes with a HDD (or I should say SSD) Indicator light in the front! I know most manufacturers have done away with it the past several years due to SSD's gaining in popularity and many users didn't care for the HDD LED light flashing but to me and my opinion, I think its still rather important to have to this day, sometimes, if im loading a program up or if Windows is loading up and its taking longer then usual, its nice to see to look at the indicator light to make sure its actually doing something, if its not blinking at all then I know its froze and it needs a hard reset. Anyways, continue to my review, I see many reviews have stated the specs and unboxing experience and such, it is true, Windows Loads up snappy, it comes with no bloatware, just MyASUS for product support and warranty information. I have already upgraded mine to 64GB of ram (max supported) and upgraded the 300W PSU to a ASUS 1000 Watt PSU for a future Nvidia GTX 3XXX or 4XXX series card since it will support and fit these cards just perfectly. Left the 512GB SSD as it is and added a 1TB 7200RPM HDD for storage for games and such. Overall, this Desktop is fast and snappy with its stock components and is easily upgradable and replaceable on any component inside.

Great product. Gets the job done. Needed a system that was quick for work that met all of the correct security requirements and this Asus system was perfect. It’s quick, non laggy and i live that it has so many usb ports for all my items (especially since I’m required to have all wired connections for work!!) easy to setup and install.

I was dreading looking for a New PC. My B/p was elevated, my blood sugar was up! I had a good experience. I'm bad with names; but the young man showed me three PC's, explained each. Then he showed me one that was an OPEN BOX. MORE MEMORY, FEATURES, AND COST LESS!! So I purchased the OPEN BOX PC. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PC. I USE IT MORE THAN THE ONE THAT I REPLACED. I WISH THAT I REMEMBERED THE YOUNG MANS NAME. I WOULD SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH, AND RECOMMEND THAT HE GET A RAISE, OR A GIFT CARD FOR HIS PATIENCE, AND HIS TRUTH ABOUT THE PC THAT I PURCHASED.

Excellent computer windows 11 great for me. I wiil be upgrading the Ram for I am a Dj and need the extra speed great storage

Asus Model:S500TD-I5512 Best Buy SKU:6511875. Very good middle of the rosd PC with 12th Gen core i5. Never had good luck with AMD. Always outdated or running slow. Intel was always good to me. And Asus is the king of computers. Their high end motherboards are found in all brands including Apple. This is a good internet / work machine with 512 GB SSD. I would recommend this to everyone.
