Was i the market for a new PC. Originally was gonna build my own but I saw this on sale at my local Best Buy store for $999 and impulse bought it. This review will go into pros/cons as well as answer a bunch of questions I had about this PC that was only answered by me opening it up. Along with the Ryzen 7 7700, mines came with an Asus B550 PRIME Motherboard, an MSI 4060 Ti 8 GB Gaming X GPU, 32 GB (16 x 2) 5200Mhz Team Force T-Force Delta RAM (With XMP enabled!) and a Kingston 1 TB M.2 SSD. Now in my opinion, an 8 GB graphics card is severely limiting. A lot of games now days (Last of Us, Ratchet & Clank, Forza) have graphical settings that can easily shoot past 8 GB of VRAM especially when gaming in 1440P or 4K, In my limited testing, I had to turn down a lot of fidelity settings to get the game running at 60FPS and even then it occasionally had lag spikes due to inefficient VRAM. I ended up taking the 4060 Ti out, selling it for around $300 and used that money to help buy much more powerful AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT with 20 GB of VRAM. The PSU (Power Supply Unit) that came with my unit is a 600W High Power 80+ Gold Model. I don't know the brand "High Power" but in my limited research they make PSUs for Thermaltake which is a respectable brand. I included a photo of the Power Supply's label if you wanted a closer look at it. Either way, 600W is pretty limiting if you are planning to upgrade. I ended up replacing it with a Corsair 850W model prior to putting the RX 7900 XT in. Overall, this is a pretty good starter PC. If you are not comfortable opening up your PC or are fine turning down some settings, this PC will serve you pretty well! Will also serve you well if you do want to tinker inside, just please remember to upgrade the Power Supply if you do. On sale, this PC is actually cheaper than building it yourself! Pros: -This is pretty price competitive. On sale at $1099 or lower it will actually cost more to buy all the parts for this PC and build it your own than just buying this all set up for you. -Built just like a custom PC. No proprietary parts, everything is off the shelf that you can buy on your own. Easily upgradable -Good performance for someone who just wants to buy something and not tinker with it. Cons: -4060 Ti is the 8 GB version, not enough for modern gaming in my opinion -Storage is pretty low. The Motherboard that came with my unit has an extra M.2 slot for easy storage expansion. -PSU (Power Supply) is questionable. 600W leaves little room for upgrades. Will need to replace it for a better unit should you wish to upgrade. Oh! and before I forget, Yes the "VCT Americas" logos in the case is removable. Just peel it off like a sticker. Hope this helps!
