Over all this PC is very powerful and a great product. With the sale over labor day weekend I couldn't pass it up! With all IBuyPower PCs the components will be whatever they have on hand when they are building your rig. In my case it was the MSI Z370a motherboard, 8700k i7, ASUS Cerberus 1070ti and 2 8gb XPG ADATA DDR4 ram. The quality of the build was almost perfect. The only issue I ran into was that one of the front fans was not running out of the box. After speaking with tech support they had me look behind the solid panel and I found that fan to not be connected. Once that was hooked up everything worked like a charm. I have heard of some people having over heating issues with just air cooling and the ASUS 1070ti but I have not had any temperatures above normal ranges. The Snowblind case is gorgeous and very fun to play around with. Just download Rainmeter and the snowblind software from IBuyPower and you can add widgets to the case screen with system stats and whatever else you'd like. Just make sure to run the DVI cable from your graphics card to the case screen port on the back of the PC (cable included) If you are having issues with the LEDs not working press the small round black button on the rear of the PC. It is the on off switch for the lighting. When this unit is on sale it was way cheaper than getting the parts individually. Even when not on sale it is still a good deal. If you are considering buying this go for it! It is crazy fast and a wonder to use! If you are patient it may go back on sale around black Friday/cyber Monday so check back in.

This computer did not come with set up instructions. I have never owned a gaming computer before and did not know about the anti dust tabs that are plugged into the back hdmi slots. Once that was remedied, set up was a breeze. I have zero issues with lag or over heating. Absolutely silent while running. The side panel doubles as a screen if you want that. Easy to modify and beautiful to look at. Definitely, money well spent.

This is my second ibuypower computer I bought this year. I bought this specific model because of the snowblind case, the newest processor, and quick availability. I had a chance to use it all day yesterday and so far it has been amazing. It is very fast. The i7 8700k is blazing fast. It took an hour to configure the snowblind screen since their are no real instructions on how to but it looks amazing now. Anyone interested in specs, this model at bestbuy has a Msi Z370a Pro motherboard. I woul definitly recommend this computer to my friends looking for a good gaming rig.
