iBUYPOWER - Trace MR Gaming Desktop - Intel i7-10700F - 16GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660Ti 6GB - 480GB SSD + 1TB HDD

I shopped around for a very long time looking for my new computer. I initially wanted to build my own, but due to the unavailability (and jacked-up prices) of parts I eventually decided on this one after carefully researching and comparing dozens of different options. After two weeks, I am very happy with this machine: it runs lightning-fast, is very quiet, and is simply gorgeous. ASSEMBLY: It came pre-assembled in a box. It was well-packed and I had no issues. You just have to plug in the Wi-Fi antenna to the back panel and plug in the power and all the peripheral cables. The one thing I was surprised about was that it did not come with any instructions on what to do to set it up, but it wasn't hard to do. I used a YouTube unboxing video made by iBUYPOWER (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aT1MwaUVApY&ab&ab) to see what to do and it was not a problem. It took me maybe 15 minutes to get it going from when I took it out of the box. The video did mention an instructions and setup insert but my box did not have one - possibly because I bought from Best Buy instead of iBUYPOWER, but not sure. It hasn't been a problem though. This is the reason I gave it 4/5 on ease of use - I can imagine that someone less familiar with computers would be a bit lost at without the video. INITIAL IMPRESSION: I was very pleasantly surprised to see that this computer had no bloatware at all, unlike my past purchases from Dell and HP. When I first turned it on, it performed the Windows 10 setup. The desktop only had two shortcuts on it: Microsoft Edge and Aura Sync, which is the software that controls the RGB lighting on the fans. Unlike my past purchases, I didn't have to spend an hour uninstalling all the crap that was the reason I didn't want a pre-built in the first place. It booted up as a pristine fresh computer. I like how easy it was to connect all my devices and peripherals. It has 6 USB slots on the back panel and 2 on the top-front panel. The top-front panel also has the standard headphone and microphone ports. Make sure you plug your monitors into the ports on the graphics card, NOT the motherboard. The unboxing video makes this clear and there is even a sticker over the motherboard ports warning you not to use them. The graphics card I got has 1 HDMI input and 3 DisplayPort inputs - I did have to buy an adapter for my second monitor (which is old and uses a DVI connection), but I got one online for just a few bucks. PERFOMANCE: As far as performance goes, I couldn't be happier. I can play WoW and Rocket League at max settings with no problems. I haven't tried any other games yet, but it also is amazingly fast for my work needs. It multitasks very well. One unexpected thing was that on Zoom meetings, it can easily run video virtual backgrounds where my last machine sounded like a jet engine if I even tried to put a static image as the background (this is all without a green screen). Speaking of noise, this computer is very quiet. With headphones on, I never even hear it. Having a SSD is new for me, and I'm very impressed with how quickly it runs. It takes 10 seconds from when I hit the power button to having an open browser. I had to read up a bit on how to manage my storage since I didn't want to fill up the SSD too quickly, but figured out that I should configure my Documents/Photos/Videos/etc. folders to store on the HDD and install my games and commonly-used programs on the SSD. NEGATIVES: There really aren't many bad things to say. One thing is that the box did not include any kind of setup instructions, but that was easily remedied with the YouTube video I linked above. Sometimes the RGB lighting reverts to default settings, but simply opening the Aura app that controls the lighting causes it to snap back to my custom settings, so it's not a big deal. A very minor annoyance is that the beautiful tempered glass side panel came with a "Caution: Tempered Glass, Handle with Care" sticker on it that I haven't been brave enough to try to remove for fear that it will leave a permanent sticker smudge. Other than that, I can't really think of anything else that has been an issue. OVERALL: I love this computer! I teach from home right now so I am spending many hours each day on it, which has been a pleasure. It looks amazing and the case has lots of extra room in case I want to upgrade at any point. I will definitely purchase from iBUYPOWER again.

This is an excellent gaming pc and runs everything smoothly. I'm very satisfied with the specs and how quiet it is. It comes with an installed program so you can change the rgb lights. However, I would HIGHLY recommend buying your own keyboard. The free keyboard that comes with it is pretty bad and the keys are super hard to press. Most of them felt like they were stuck and I had to use extra force just to push them down, not to mention they had a bad squeaky noise. The only positive thing I can say about the keyboard is that it has nice rgb lighting (11 different options) and there is a convenient volume knob. I also tried the provided mouse for a little bit and it seemed decent. Should be fine for the average user/gamer. It has rgb lighting, 7 buttons, and adjustable dpi up to 3,600. But there are definitely better gaming mouse brands out there.

Finally bought a gaming PC for my son. This one from iBuypower is fast, Windows set up was easy, Fortnite was getting over 300FPS. However, the box was missing the the quick start guide, no foam inside to keep parts from moving inside while getting delivered. The biggest CON is that the the software to change RGB lights doesn't work. I get Error 0xFFFB. There is no Asr graphics card and Asr USB LED header! Help!

I’m pleasantly surprised by how well-built this machine is, and by its adaptability. You can easily upgrade this computer according your needs. But since it’s already quite powerful, I don’t think that I will have to do anything before long. The glass panel and easy access to the components are a plus. It has intel i7 and a great Nvidia graphic card. Just what I needed for my flight simulator, and my oculus rift s.

After weeks of investigating, unboxing videos, reddit, friends, reviews. I settled on this gaming PC as my first PC. A lot of my friends recommended it because the games I play like Destiny 2,Xbox Game Pass, and a few other games and it run it smoothly. Great at multitasking and editing. The keyboard that comes with feels a bit on the cheap side and the mouse is, its a mouse. My only real complaint is the lights. They don't light up the interior and serve more of an exterior cosmetic touch. I was hoping for more interior lights. And the app doesn't work properly. Took 2 days after purchase.

Needed a flexible and expandable work computer. Son said buy a gaming computer for the motherboard alone. Isaiah helped me pick it out. Worked out great. Upgraded ddr4 capacity, added three more SSD and a big HD. Bought two sizes of old fashioned floppy drives to check out legacy stuff. Installed a powered mini-board with four more USB 3.0 because everything is USB now. i7 is nice chip. The Nvidia GeForce graphics card is fantastic. Monitors are cheap so I'm driving three medium size HPs. Really helps actual work to look at three things at once. The graphics card is heavy and sagged out of its slot so I fabbed a bracket for the unsupported corner. Colored LEDs are cool except for the keyboard. More than satisfied. Should last me awhile. And almost everything was a Black Friday Month super sale or special. My gaming son is jealous.

My husband uses this as his main computer and workstation for his home recording studio. He does use it for games as well, but this is primarily used for audio recording and he absolutely loves it!

This pc is amazing is fast and on Fortnite it runs 240 to 300 FPS I highly recommend this pc. But there is one little problem is that I can talk on games but the audio is low but I fixed easily.
