This is a fast and capable machine. I added a second memory stick to make it 16 GB total, and that helped. I also added a GTX 1650 video card. The only reason I took off a star is the inability to upgrade or add components beyond what I have added. The power supply is too weak to add a stronger video card, and it is proprietary, meaning it is a weird shape, so finding a more powerful power supply to fit this case is impossible. There are NO AVAILABLE BAYS in the case. The SSD drive is incorporated into the motherboard, so there is no upgrading to a larger drive, and without bays, there is no place to add a second drive. This is an excellent machine for the basics, but do not buy this thinking you will upgrade drives or power supply later. It would make sense for Best Buy to include pictures of the inside of the case. These pictures would make upgraders happy.

Everything we were hoping for. Simple set up and very fast for my 14 years gamer.

I have had no problem with the computer. I puchased this as an upgrade for an old Dell Inspiron to get a faster operating system - i.e. more memory and a solid state drive. The speed difference is great.
