I bought this gaming pc and trusted that this would be a good computer since it was by ibuypower. when the first one came, it was missing caps on the different switches and usb plugs, the top dust cover was scratched, it was missing the warranty card and some other papers, the keys on the keyboard were stuck, the cables in the graphics card were loose and didn't want to stay in. the computer turned on but it would not connect to my monitor worth the life of me (my monitor works with everything else.) i then returned that one, talked to tech support and someone who builds pcs and they said i probably got a bad one. I ordered the same one because it was getting good reviews at the time and when it came today, there was no plastic coverings on any part of the glass and the glass had scuffs all over it. the sheet was cut short on the front of the fans so there was a big magnet covering the right side of the fan. the fan on the inside was scraping on the side and there were plastic kind of shavings in the pc , the fan also made a ticking sound from hitting the side. when i plugged it in, doing all the correct steps it still wouldn't connect. overall this pc needs better quality control before buying

So far, so good! I'm actually very happy with this build and quality. Very fast, quiet and great for video editing. I did have an issue with the HDMI port at first but isolated it to the monitor settings from my previous setup. Everything was packed well. I followed the instructional video from ibuypower.com on unpacking and powering up your computer and all went as planned. It was hard to find a new build with such a great processor (Ryzen 5-5600X) and RAM expandable to 128GB (16GB comes with it).
