The system's upgradeability is also a plus for those looking to customize their gaming experience.
We just got this computer. It is our first tower. (We both have laptops: HP and a Mac) It is a very nice looking system. I love being able to see everything inside and the colors. I feel very confident in the air flow and cooling of the system... as it is very open (lots of vents, etc.) There is a TON of room inside to upgrade in the future - more drives, etc. It seems to be very fast... excellent for gaming and all kinds of computer applications. My husband has already enjoyed a night of gaming on it! I'm going to have to knock him off so I can try out my graphics/photo applications! ;-) My only "negative" is that the tower is huge! This may just be my impression of it because I'm coming from laptop usage. We've had a bit of trouble trying to figure out how to place it on our desk so that we can see the color/vent side and still have access to the front plugs/drives... without it being in a position to get knocked off or bumped. We had it on the other side of our monitor but the color/vent side was against the wall. All in all... so far it seems like a great system! We had a checklist of what we wanted in our next computer and this system has given us the most for our money!

Con 1: I was surprised when I saw the tower. I read on the review about the size, but didn't have the concrete Idea. In case you are wondering, how big this is, consider the following: the tower height is 2.5 times that of a 500mL water bottle. Length is similar, and width is about 1 water bottle height. Con 2: The fan is noisier than I expected, but I can't expect high-end fans on a low-cost gaming computer anyway. It is probably also because of the size of this thing. Pro 1: This is the good side of Con1. The tower has so much room for additional upgrades. Even if you don't upgrade it, the size can only help the cooling system. Pro 2: The price is excellent. This purchase includes a keyboard, a mouse, and (if you are willing to write a review) a gaming headset. I am not using the antivirus and internet protection included in the purchase because I use a different product. However, if you are looking to try different antivirus software, it is a nice addition to your experience. TL;DR The tower is big and noisy, but if you are willing to put up with it, the cost and other benefits are more than enough to make up for your inconvenience.
