Not perfect, but it’s close.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never though I’d purchase a pre built again, but here we are. Given the unprecedented GPU prices these days, I believe this is the best deal/most convenient path to getting a 3080 these days. With that being said, this is far from a perfect build. I’ll start with the good stuff: the GPU, CPU, & power supply combo of this spec is excellent and well worth the necessary work to make this a top tier pc. The unfortunate part is that the case, cpu cooler, and ram are shockingly disparate when compared to the aforementioned components you get in this build. This is what I did and what I’d recommend for those purchasing this PC at or around $1800 usd. First, get a high airflow case that includes some decent 120, 140, or 200mm fans (I choose the Corsair 4000d at $95). Then get either a decent aio cooler or air cooler, the single fan tower this comes with isn’t going to cut it with the included case or anything else imo (I went with a Cooler Master Masterliquid Mirror 360, front mounted in the 4000d). If you want to go a step further, find some decent affordable RAM and go 32gb+, I swapped the included ugly green dimms for 2x16gb 3200mhz Corsair dominators and I plan to add some more soon, but this could be unnecessary depending on your use case. When swapping cases, there’s a few things of more that got me stuck for a bit (and I’m a very experienced builder). The pcie safe slot the gpu is installed was unbelievably difficult to unlatch on my unit, I have never been so concerned about damaging a gpu or mobo removing the gpu. Ultimately, I did get it unlocked, but it was a tremendous amount of pressure required with screwdrivers, chopsticks, etc. to successfully remove it and access the final screw securing the motherboard. The gpu also has a bracket holding it to the rear wall of the case that must be removed prior to removal of the gpu, once removed there are additional screws securing the bracket to the gpu if you wish to remove it entirely (I did). Additionally, upon removing the gpu, I found that the motherboard as well was firmly seated in the case. I found a forum post online indicating that the integrated io shield of the motherboard being seated into the rear cutout of the case was the sticking point. The key here is pushing the io shield from the back and pulling upward on the motherboard to remove it from the case. From there it should be smooth sailing, I was terrified that I’d busted the gpu or motherboard in my process, but everything was completely fine. Everything is working fine despite a weird message that the cpu changed on my first boot with the new case, cooler, and ram. Ultimately, if GPU prices are still insane, you’re comfortable with some work on the system, and you can get one of these for ~$1800 I feel it’s a very competent and fairly priced set of parts. Worked for me, might work for you too.

Great parts terrible case
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some great components in the worst case ever. It ha a i7 11700 , asus Tuf 3080 , asus ROG motherboard , 750 watt gold power supply and 16 gigs 3200mhz ram @ cl 17 . The Bad - the ram is plain green kind of generic looking ram( works fine so not the worst) , the power supply is not modular so lots of wires to deal with and the very worst part is the case ( almost zero airflow) and processor cooler. You could probably and some fans and a AIO cpu cooler for the temps but I found it easier to buy a corsair airflow case while they were on sale. I picked this up when it was on sale for $1599 , got the case , a corsair AIO , some caes rgb case fans , 32 gigs rgb 3200mhz cl 16 ram and a wd 1tb 850 nvme drive. All together its cost was around $1950 after using the bestbuy rewards for some of the purchases. A great deal for a now custom very cool running gaming pc. Do the math on the parts. If you can get them all you still come out about $400 ahead and you can easily sell the spare parts to save even more. I gave it 3 stars because i expected better from asus in a somewhat high end pc.

Great deal with a free FIGHTER JET sound effects!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome parts put into a airtight case , with no intake . An 88mm exhaust and a 88mm 3heat pipe cpu cooler is all you have for cooling. I play Conquerors Blade with max settings and it starts to thermal throttle around 1-2hrs and than it will automatically shutdown . CPU is only at 50% load with 95+ Celsius . GPU at 50% load and 60-65C. I swapped the case for a Corsair5000D airflow (go YouTube Gamer Nexus for come cheap and good cases ) and added 10fans now it runs at 75C (still using the original cpu cooler) , planning on custom looping it . Still worth it for me after an extra $250 and time spent for rebuilding it into a new case. Btw if u get the Bestbuy store card u get 10% cash back which is like $200 and than you can have a free case or AIO. Friendly reminder read the other reviews please , there are other solutions for the cooling problem , but I think Case > CPU cooler > modding the original case .

You don’t get 11gen intel and 3200 ram , but FUSS FREE !

Perfect for 1440p gaming at Ultra settings
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I subtracted 1 star because this computer was so loud with the stock fans. So after doing my research, I replaced the stock cpu cooler with Noctua NH-D9L and the rear exhaust fan with Noctua NF-A9. The computer got really quiet which was great, but then I noticed my computer shutting down every time I ran a cpu stress test in 3DMark. I then went into the BIOS Q-Fan control setting and switched both fans' settings from the default "standard" mode to "silent" mode. By analyzing the graph in the Q-Fan control, "Silent" Mode produces more rpms quicker when the CPU gets hotter. Otherwise you can customize your fan settings any way you like. The result is that my computer no longer shuts down whenever I run a test in 3DMark. I'm truly amazed with Noctua fans because they manage to keep quiet during those benchmark tests and especially during intense gaming sessions. Overall, the main reason why I bought this gaming computer is because I needed an RTX 3080 card to achieve an average of 60+ fps when playing Red Dead Redemption and Cyberpunk 2077 in 1440p Ultra. Mission accomplished!

Good for the price, with notes
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you aren't comfortable altering the system, I don't think it will be a good choice sadly. It at least needs more fans that badly. As many other reviews covered, the cooling is absolutely unacceptable if you intend to use the computer as is. It will throttle, and even overheat under just about any load. Fans ran full speed on startup alone, and mine got over 85c from just booting into windows. I can't say I had a crash, but many cores were close to or at TJ max under load. It has 2 90mm fans, plus the gpu fans, and that's it. The motherboard is locked, even though you get an unlocked processor, so bear that in mind. Even with all that said, the cost of this is the real takeaway. The parts in here all together are very close to MSRP which is unheard of right now. And if you don't like to waste things, the case is usable; with added case fans, and a better cpu cooler. The top and front panel are mesh metal under the plastic, so airflow is decent. Something I haven't seen others note, is that the case does have posts for a full atx board. Also, the gpu will have no sag issues, as there is a bracket inside attached to the case and the metal backplate. The 3080 tuf is a very good card with a lot of headroom to overclock, and the 11700kf is basically an i9 11900kf, with a slightly lower clock. The SK hynix ram inside is not the best you can buy, but it is definitely not bad. M.2 drive is a WD-SN530 with windows installed. Greatwall PSU is the only strangely branded item, though most reviews say it's okay. Asus strix B-560G board is actually good too, if you don't want to overclock. I'd definitely buy this if you were considering building your own PC, because you won't be finding the parts at this price anytime soon it seems. You could run it as is with better fans, or get a 590 motherboard and have a top of the line system for basically the cost of parts. And if you wanted to actually get the building experience, you could always tear it down and build in a better case. Remember, any modifications will void the warranty. Test the computer before touching anything if you intend to make any changes.

I dig it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice little pre-built that sells for cheaper than the card in it does on eBay these days. Crazy times. Luckily for me it’s been about 6 years since I’ve upgraded so I don’t need to part out the rest. I’m a fan of the little case. It sits nicely on my desk, is very cleanly wired, and has a calming slow changing light show in it. I keep reading about the lack of fans and a proper CPU cooler and how the mobo won’t overclock the i7. All valid points I guess, but I just played Cyberpunk completely maxed out w/ ultra ray tracing for 6 hours and this thing never broke a sweat or glitched out... and it was always above 60fps at 1440p. IDK, if you just wanna play games at a high frame rate w/ RTX and not be the benchmark stress test champion of the world this is a great buy in my book, and the gravy is I didn’t have to wait 4 months to get it.

Flawed but workable option for a 3080 build.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you are trying to build a PC around the 3080, buy now and think later. When this is available it’s one of the rare opportunities for a great gaming rig without winning a lottery or paying scalpers n It’s a prebuilt that requires a bit of work to get fully functional. Test it first before doing these modifications because they will void your warranty. The best air CPU cooler that will fit in the case is a Vetroo V5. You can install this without changing the back plate. This upgrades your CPU cooler to 120mm and it actually works great. You can also install three 120mm intake fans in the case: two on the front and one on the top. You will need to CAREFULLY take the case apart to do this. One 120mm intake fan can be screwed in the bottom front, but the other two need zip ties. The ram sticks do not have heatsinks. You can add these if you want but they really aren’t necessary, especially after you address the cooling. The 90mm exhaust fan is loud. I may replace that too. After getting the cooling right, I also patched the bios to update the processor microcode. This is optional but can yield a 2.5% performance increase. Now the PC runs like an absolute beast and I’m happy with the outcome.

OK IF you change the case, otherwise garbage.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The case and fans are complete garbage, but in early 2022 it is still a great deal if you want to do some work. I swapped the components into a NZXT 510i case and added a AIO 240 cooler. It is running cool and fairly quiet and looks good. Got the computer as an open box for around 1600. With the case and cooler I'm about $2100 in for an RTX 3080 with an i7 11700kf and 16 gigs of 3200 ram. It would not be my first choice for CPU or ram if the world was same right now, but it is cutting through all the tests and games with ease. I'm playing at 1440p right now but it could go 4k with no problem. NZXT 510i was only case at Best Buy locally, it is ok but I wouldn't recommend. The case scratches VERY easily and the metal is so thin that the top fan makes a droning noise. It was easy to fix by putting something heavy on the center of the top fan intake where it wouldn't block airflow, but come on man that shouldn't be necessary. Overall, I would do it again but only if GPU prices stay this crazy.

Q: Questioni seen someone said it comes with a b560 board but is that for the one with the 11700kf to don't know who would put a k series CPU with board you cant overclock on
Asked by Yoda.
- A:Answer Yes it is clearly a b560-g board. I downloaded the manual for it to find the extra chassi fan pins etc. But it has been locked so you cannot apply the bios/firmware for it. Only the G15E firmware can be applied. This also locks the overclocking options available in the normal b560-g.
