Acceptable
I bought this only because Microsoft stopped supporting my old one and I had to get Windows 11. I needed something that could use iTunes and connect to my iPad. This computer doesn’t function well with anything external. It frequently “loses” my music files so I have to put them back in iTunes. It gives me security warnings about my external drive. It “forgets” my printers and my WiFi. It took me 3 tries to figure out how to permanently disable OneDrive so it would stop filling up my “storage” and tell me to pay for more. If you are looking for a compact, quiet unit to use exclusively for everything Microsoft, this could be the one for you

ASUS FOR THE WIN!!
V500 is a reliable, budget-friendly mini-tower desktop. It features a robust Intel Core i5 or i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a fast 1TB SSD. Its whisper-quiet, snappy performance, and has a compact footprint. However, it lacks a dedicated graphics card and DVD drive. So far so good for daily computing... No gaming for me.. All in all... Good purchase.

Excellent PC and great value
I replaced my 12 year old Dell PC with this after Windows 10 was deprecated. I am very impressed with this PC. It is compact, very quiet and very fast for regular home use. Only issue is if you plan to upgrade or add components to it. It doesn't accept standard PC parts and I had to source the SATA power cable from ASUS directly. I am very happy with this purchase.

Great for my needs--Know what you want 1st.
i have no complaints. I did a lot of research ahead of time to make sure this would meet my needs. I do a lot of writing, and use multi-sheet Excel files, and do some light gaming on Steam. Absolutely no issues on performance. It is whisper quiet. I never hear it. I just put it to sleep, so I don't have issues with long boot up times some people have mentioned. About one time per week I will do a restart (just good hygiene) and it is up and ready in a couple of minutes--no different than my laptop. I have dual 27" monitors and I knew ahead of time I was going to need an adapter for the second HDMI, so I purchased it ahead of time. I think if you are a cognizant buyer, you know what you are stepping into, you will be happy with this purchase.
