Love this computer. It's crazy fast and plays all my games at ultra settings. Looks great too. My only problem is the LCD screen on the side panel. I gave up trying to deal with it. They need to include a link to a tutorial. Like other reviews have stated, my panel came installed upside down. I worked my way around it but still couldn't get the video wallpapers to work correctly. I gave up messing with it though. It's just a feature that I will never use. I'd rather marvel at the awesome graphics. Saw other reviews complaining about the tint of the screen. There's no tinted film to peel off. Just display something bright like a white background and you'll be able to see inside the case.

Although the system is great and has many features it is missing one important one and after 3 months of using it, I have faced a few problems with the unit. The missing feature is a secondary HDMI female port for the transparent LCD side screen. On the CPU there is only 1 port so an accessory needs to be bought in order to use the side screen and your CPU monitor at the same time. After 2 months of use, the built-in wifi stopped working, most of the keys on the keyboard have worn off, and the rear fan makes annoying vibration sounds on occasion. I paid over 1K for this unit and should have those issues, especially early on. Aside from that, I am able to multitask various apps without lag, but I had to add on additional hard drives because the storage system it came with is far below today's standards for a game/art user. It is a step up from my cyberpower pc, but still just doesn't cut it in my standard for quality.

After researching individual components, it just makes sense to buy this prebuilt monster for less than buying each component and building one yourself. For gaming and video editing, this machine checks all of the boxes and the snowblind featured panel is just fantastic and eye catching.
