it has the necessary power for gaming or office , very silent and lean

Asus - Desktop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 1TB Hard Drive - Gray is a superb value priced desktop unit. So pleased with the speed of the unit. It replaced my much more HP desktop and has dramatically improved my user experience on the WWW.

Some more water has passed under the bridge since I wrote the "No Fluke - Dead on Arrival" review. Best Buy was gracious in allowing me to exchange the DOA PC I received when I returned the unit to the store. Thankfully, there was one in stock and upon request, the associates opened the replacement PC in-store to check that it was bootable. The unit ran the initial boot cycle without any hitches. I took the unit home and set it up. It has been running flawlessly since 3/30/16. The specs are very good for the price and for what my kids use this PC for, the Intel Core i5; 8 gigs DDR 4 memory; 1 terabyte hard drive; 2 USB 3.1 ports; 2 USB 3.0 ports; very good sound card; among others, are well worth the price of asking. The unit is very quiet, and boots up fairly quickly even without a Solid State Drive, which I intend adding in due course. So far, so good. ASUS should still get to the bottom of what is causing some of the units to malfunction out of the box. This working unit deserves a full 5 stars!

This a really good PC! So far, I've updated it with a GTX 970, a SSD, more RAM and a new PSU. It's running better than ever. I'm really happy with the purchase of this PC. I've been using it for gaming, 3d design and VR development. I've tested it with an Oculus Rift and it runs flawlessly. Even without the updates, the PC already had a good performance.

I bought this PC to perform some basic computer functions such as internet browsing, Microsoft Office, emailing and entry level photo edits. The PC is great for all of the above functions with no delays in processing any of my requests. I can also run a virus scan and still use the PC with only a slight delay in response time from other applications. Overall I'm very pleased with this purchace.

I been having a blast with this computer, the updates are really easy to do and the ASUS interface program is really easy to control. Also I forgot to read the manual but now a days nobody really read does but this computer even has WiFi integrated it kinda feels like a laptop. The only thing that bothers me is that the audio notice keeps pop-ping out saying I plug a audio device when there is nothing plug other than that this was a great purchase.

Bought this as it was a good deal with decent specs. Have not been disappointed.

We modded it with a new power supply to support an nvidia 980 gtx video card and it runs any game we have tried at high resolution with no stuttering or lag
