Q: This case obviously has terrible cooling. Can you fit an CPU AIO on the top and how big of a radiator will fit? What size front case fans can be installed?

A: Technically you can't however I was able to squeeze one into the front of the case without actually using the mounting bolts along with a 120mm corsair fan to the top of the case held on by zip ties to allow for some extra ventilation. I would like to replace the 80mm fan at the back of the case next. I also went with a G.Skill ram stick to bring it from 16gb to 32gb. The original case fans are 80mm along with the original CPU fan. Ultimately I see myself overhauling this entire setup. I am currently able to finally run Battlefield 2042 with 100+ fps maxed settings while running below 60c CPU temp.

Q: How much wattage does it have?? It was never stated in the specs.

A: 750w EVGA gold is what ours came with

Q: What motherboard is it? Can I add another GPU?

A: Rog strix b560-g gaming is what ours came with It has another slot for GPU but it's gonna be real tight. See pictures

Q: What type of ram? Dual channel or single 16? The one i just got has single. It is not clear in the specs. the online pics show 4 ram slots full. i uploaded a pic on my single channel.

A: Single channel 16. Feel free to go get another single stick of 16gb to toss into it. Mix-matching isn't the snafu it is claimed to be when it comes down to performance.

Q: How much of the power supply is used total? Thanks

A: undefined

Q: can this pc work with valve index?

A: Yes, the PC meets the system requirements of Valve Index.

Q: Can you transfer all the components into a different larger case?

A: Yes you can. I did this. I moved all the components into a Corsair high airflow case with a liquid cooler.

Q: Hi, tell me what is the model of RAM and GPU?

A: RAM- No reputable brand i ever heard of. Suggest better RAM. GPU- ASUS. Great GPU brand

Solid Machine for Price/Stock Cooling Insufficient
Couple of things you should know before purchasing. The cooling that was fitted on top of the I7 11700K was a type of Evo 212 air cooler. The thermal paste provided is not sufficient for the heat generated by the 11700K. I went with a prebuilt system, hoping to save time associated with part selection and assembly, but ended up opening her up and doing a couple things to finish the job. During my initial benchmark. The case fan in the back of the computer was preforming a Rocketship demonstration which lead me to temperature checks. I noted temperatures at 100 degrees Celsius, and although I've been out of the overclocking game since the first Athlon 64s, i know 100 degrees Celsius is boiling water. I purchased a CORSAIR - iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX CPU Cooler, as anything larger would not have fit due to the case size. I had to come up with some engineering(zip ties) to make it fit and will note that you do not need a space heater at your desk with this puppy running. Current idle temps are in the 30's, internet browsing/game installation in the 50's. Crysis 3 Remaster/WoW full details can see temps in the high 70's. All temps running at 4.9 Ghz. The RAM provided is an afterthought, single sided dimm, no heat spreader. Slightly disappointing. Get yourself some fancy "insert favorite brand" RBG, you wont regret it. GPU (ASUS brand) provided no complaints, solid temps in 50's under full load. Outside of the CPU cooling being the most showstopping issue, ASUS has provided a solid machine for the price point. New users be sure to watch your temperatures. I would advise anyone to check/reapply the thermal compound, listen for the Rocketship, before putting it under any extended loads.

Very impressed
I've built 4 PC's in the past couple of years and I must say this PC was built with TLC. The packaging was very protective of the PC. The wires were snaked, hidden, zip tied and taped! We checked all the screws as we heard some people say things aren't always tightened or ram not pushed in all the way. There wasn't any of that here. The only con that would make me want to take half a star away is that the case has no room (physically) for expansion. It's so thin that you can't add a AIO cooler for the CPU. It comes with one fan and the heatsink has one fan.... and you can only add two more generic fans because the motherboard only has two more pins. We went into the bios and increased fan speeds to help with the potential cooling issues we forsee, but we will have to buy two more generic fans. There is no room for an HDD there are no brackets to hold one in place. You "could" put one in as the motherboard has the pins for it but it will physically just be hanging there. The only (1) NVMe is being used for this device and it felt like it was thermal pasted to the shield covering it. TLDR perfect for those that: Want a quality build Want great parts NOW for a cheap bundle price No fuss start it. Literally boots windows 11 on start. Awesome looking case with very sturdy handle Cons: If you plan on pushing the CPU you probably need to buy two more generic fans (cheap) You should go into bios and adjust fan speed according to load you are putting on CPU too. Case has limited/no room for expansion (physically) for HDD and AIO cooler (or at least the cheaper $100 AIO I bought).

Overheating
****** This review is over the 5 days i have owned this desktop. ***** The computer runs pretty nice outside of the CPU overheating. Setting up the computer and updating all programs took roughly 45min. After that i let the computer run idle for about 2 1/2 hours. CPU was running at about 83°c to 90°c. Fan was running loud the entire time. After 4 additional hours of research with windows setting changes to the processor boosts and fan settings showing no sign in cooling off; it finally occurred to me that the thermal paste or fan could be the issue. After removing the Heat sync and fan from the CPU, i was able to determine that the thermal paste was the issue. (Finger prints shown on the top of the unit in the picture are not mine.) After removing and reapplying the thermal paste, it is now running to about 31°-40° idle. I have built computers in the past so i felt comfortable opening up the computer. Since this seems common issue, i cannot in good faith tag this as a recommended item. GAMERS: This computer runs these games beautifully on highest settings after thermal paste was reapplied (0 fps drops and 0 heating issues): -Ffxiv -World of warcraft -Satisfactory **heavy on CPU usage. 51°-73°c average** -Icarus -Kena: Bridge of spirits **somewhat heavy CPU later in the game. 51°-62°c** These are all i was able to play over the weekend. Happy hunting!
