iBUYPOWER - Gaming Desktop - Intel Core i7-9700K - 16GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER - 1TB HDD + 480GB SSD

I was in the process of pricing together parts for my next PC when I came across this pre-build during the Black Friday sale for $1499. At that price, it was cheaper than what I set out to build by a decent margin, so I ended up ordering one. Due to several reviews of misaligned motherboards, I was semi anxious about receiving one like that. However, it arrived without any need to fix anything, just plugged it in and it was ready to go. I held off on reviewing it until I could get my feet wet with it a bit, and it has handled everything I’ve thrown at it and then some. Every game so far in ultra settings on a 4K monitor, with GPU temps averaging around mid 70’s under load, has been around 60+ fps. So far, I’m very happy with this PC, and it should last for some time to come. Also, I’m not sure why there are complaints about not getting an RGB remote... not once did I see anything listed about it coming with a remote, so I’m unsure what those complaints are about. The RGBLED program it comes with works just fine.

This rig is super fast and highly capable. It has more than enough juice to play those AAA titles and stay super quiet. I love how quickly it boots because of its SSD. There is plenty of storage but if you find yourself running low there is plenty of space to add more. I would highly recommend.

For a while I've been saving up to buy a gaming PC. I always played games on the PC, but didn't really get into it until Nvidia came out with the GeForce 600 series back in 2012. My first gaming machine was the Lenvo y500 laptop that ran two gt 650 in sli. This machine was able to carry me for the next 4 years, but as games became technically more demanding, I had to upgrade. at that time, upgrading for me meant purchasing another gaming laptop that came with a gtx 1060 6gb version. The laptop was able to carry me for another few years until I realized that I was in need of another upgrade. Buying another gaming laptop was out of the question because of how costly it can get on the long run and how difficult it is to upgrade its components. So when the time came for an upgrade, I chose to build my own pc/look at prebuilt towers. I was lucky to have come across this desktop during the black friday sale. This thing is a beast! I am currently revisiting Far Cry 5 and playing the new Call of Duty MW on ultra with max settings...and WOOOOOOOO... this thing runs these games as smooth as maple syrup running down a tall stalk of hotcakes with Michael Bolton music playing in the background. YOU FEEL ME? Can I also say that this computer is also quiet? At the loudest, these fans sound like quiet whispers that tell me "it's okay friend keep gaming we'll keep this rig cool." Thank you iBuyPower for making such a great rig. I appreciate the RGB and the included liquid cooling system for the processor. This PC will last me for a while. The ONLY thing that I have to say about my experience with this product is that the webkey it came with would not work! I needed that to give ya'll a review and share my love. Other than that, many thanks!

I've had other computers (both Windows based PC's and Macs) but nothing I've ever used compares to the speed of this machine. I needed something more than a standard desktop to handle the graphic needs of X-Plane 11 and this system does it with ease. I thought when I ordered it that I would add RAM to it once I got it but it doesn't appear to be necessary. This system is consistently giving me 50-60fps in X-Plane with max settings and that is impressive. X-Plane is much more graphics intensive than most video games. I was afraid it would be loud with 4 cooling fans but you can hardly hear it at all. Did I mention that it's fast? It boots up cold in about 22 seconds and restarts in around 30.

Everything was well put together, just wish my graphics card lit up. To complete the lighting in my new system. But everything is performing really well and the computer is quiet even when gaming heavily. I am very satisfied with this product! FYI: there are clips that are in the way of the USB's and you are going to have to take pull them out so you can plug in your USB's, So be mindful of this, you won't be able to plug in your usb's until you take the clips out. I read a review where the guy said they installed the motherboard incorrectly because he couldn't plug his usb in, that is not true. Cons: finger print magnet because of the glass exterior, buy yourself a nice microfiber towel!

I was initially reluctant to purchase this unit. Coming from consoles, I was looking to get a gaming PC (to play Fallout 3 and NV, to be honest) to experience the other side of video games. After doing some research, I was considering either building my own PC or buying a pre-built (which most people in the PC community seem to discourage). For the price (I got it on the Black Friday sale for $1,500), I am very pleased. The unit is a bit bigger than I imagined, but not by much. The RGB lights look amazing and can be controlled by your mobo's software (mine is an Asrock), and I checked both the left and right panels to make sure everything was plugged in when I inspected parts during the initial setup. Everything was in order and it was just a matter of plugging the PC in. Software-side, everything was a breeze. So far, I've played Fallout, edited in Premiere and will play the new Modern Warfare soon (as I got it with the purchase of an RTX card with this unit). All-in-all, I can not recommend this unit enough. I've only used it for a few days though so take that into account. If anything changes, I will be sure to update my review and let BB/IBP know. Cheers.

This PC is great, it will literally run anything I throw at it at very high settings. Arma 3, Squad, Insurgency: Sandstorm, Metro Exodus, Grand Theft Auto, Rising Storm 2 and everything else. It's a great overall PC for a great price. I purchased this PC on Cyber Monday for an even better price. I do have some issues with this PC however. To start, there is the absolutely horrendous wire management. I would expect from a professional PC building company to at least build the thing with precision and the ease of use for the consumer in mind. I am very disappointed with it to say the least. What if I wanted to install another hard drive? I can barely tell which wire from the other? Speaking of hard drives, where would I even put them? There is only one, tiny bay that holds the current HDD. I looked it up and people say you can simply place another hard drive on top?? It doesn't help that I will definitely have trouble installing another hard drive because of the awful wire arrangement (if I could call it that). You will definitely want another hard drive because 1TB won't cut it for most modern games as they keep getting larger in file. Other than that, it works as intended, but you might run into an issue upon first booting up your PC. The PC might tell you that windows failed to install or something around those lines. Here is a link of a thread with someone who had the same issue with it being answered in one of the replies, https://www.reddit.com/r/iBUYPOWER/comments/7v3syo/windows_installation_problems/ That worked for me at least. I'm not going to count it as a downside however because it is easily fixable but still should not have been an issue from the start. Other than those few gripes I have with this PC, I have had no other issues. I have noticed that it does get it a little loud at times. Maybe its because my room is very hot since I don't have air conditioning and the average temperature is about 80 degrees Fahrenheit. It tends to really start revving up when I play more heavy duty games.

Happy Canadian customer. I shopped a lot before selecting this unit. Nothing at this price point came close to the features and performance of this unit. Everything arrived in tact, well packaged and fully operational. Also of note, the hard drives weren't loaded with a bunch of bloatware. All the components appear to be gaming grade quality and it benchmarked very well against other PCs with similar specs. The glass and metal case looks classy and durable, there is also lots of breathing room for all the important innards. I tested several AAA games on my 65” LG OLED with excellent results. The product gives me confidence that it will comfortably run high settings with 1440p or higher resolution without any trouble. So far It has been exactly what I was hoping for in a future proof gaming PC.
