  • Key Specs
    • Processor Model: Intel 7th Generation Core i7 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
    • Storage Type: HDD
    • Total Storage Capacity: 1000 gigabytes
    • System Memory (RAM): 16 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
    • Graphics Type: Dedicated (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
    • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)

    • Hard Drive RPM: 7200 revolutions per minute (A hard drive's data is stored on disks, or platters, that spin while transferring information to the host system. The higher the RPM, the faster the hard drive's performance.)
  • Memory
    • System Memory (RAM): 16 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly.

  • Mouse, keyboard

Q: What kind is the motherboard. Is it a MSI or what?

A: It has a Thimphu-K motherboard. Form factor: uATX: 24.0x24.0 cm (9.4x9.4 in) Chipset: Z170 Memory sockets: 4 x DDR4 Processor socket: LGA1151 Expansion Slots: 1 PCI Express x16 (Gen3.0) 1 PCI Express x1 (Gen3.0) One M.2 socket 1, key A One M.2 socket 3, key M

Q: Can you set up dual monitors to this PC? I've got my main monitor hooked up to the graphics card but cannot seem to get a second one to work.

A: Yes you can. However, there is only 1 HDMI port on the graphics card and 3 display ports. I picked up an HDMI to Display port adapter and then used that to hook up my 2nd monitor with existing HDMI cable.

Q: Has anyone had any overheating issues with this machine? I've heard hp omen machines have had overheating problems. I love the specs on this machine but I am worried about it staying cool, especially the CPU.

A: I've had mine for about a month now. no issues at all. in fact, I can tell you the cpu temperatures hovers between 39-49 degrees. there's a way to monitor cpu temperature with the color bars on the front of the machine.

Q: Is this an i7-7700 processor?

A: Correct. Intel Core I7-7700.

Q: Does it have a Solid State Drive? I am comparing it to an Alienware Aurora R6 that has a 1TB and 256GB SSD. I only see that this appears to have a 1TB drive only? Just trying to see which would be better.

A: No, it doesn't. I bought an NVMe (Samsung 960) to maximize the performance. Easy to install, and much faster than a standard SATA SSD.

Q: What is the FPS average running medium Quality setting for a game like arma 3?

A: Medium settings? haha, no way man I've played every game under the sun of this thing and never once set it to anyhting less than High. 9 times out of 10 I'm running it on Ultra because the Nvidia Geforce experience program that you can download with your card monitors your gameplay , optimizes performance, and suggests the optimal graphics settings to get the most FPS while maintaining the best posible graphics I dont play Arma but in gmaes like Overwatch I'm getting 120 - 160 FPS on High and 110-140 on Ultra settings no problem. Heres a list of games I play fairly regularly and the averag FPS i get while playing them. Keep in mind this is with no upgrades at all, exactly how I got it at Best Buy. Overwatch / Ultra - 120 - 160 FPS Witcher 3 / Ultra - 110 - 130 FPS (High 120 - 150) Civilization V / Ultra - 130 - 170 FPS XCom 2 / Ultra - 110 - 130 FPS (High 150 - 170 FPS) Dirty Bomb / Ultra - 160 - 190 FPS Warface / Ultra - 170 - 200 FPS Payday 2 / Ultra - 160 - 190 FPS I could keep going but I think you get the point. Ofcourse the FPS will drop and/or spike occassionally but only for 1-2 seconds max and rarely affects anything noticeably. I'm not lying when I say that any AAA PC game or indie or whatever you play this will have no problem handling it. I've actually seen a couple games run around 280+ FPS for extended periods of time during heavy on screen action. Its ridiculously unbelievable, so much so that I have 4 different FPS monitors running just to make sure they were not glitching. DrStrangeFunk

Q: Am I able to upgrade each part individually? For example the graphics card and the processor etc. Can this also handle 4K gaming without any lag?

A: upgrade question = yes 4k gaming wihtout lag = that depends on a lot of different factors. what game? how high you want the graphical settings?

Q: Will warranty be void if we upgrade like add SSD?

A: I had the geek squad install the ssd and put the os on it with their plan. Works really well.
