Set it up last night. Seems surprisingly quiet and super responsive. Case Metals & Glass are high quality. Wired Keyboard and Wired Mouse look very cool with their LED displays but keyboard seems a bit on the lightweight side of quality. Also, not a fan of the high keys and would prefer low profile soft touch versions. USB ports were my biggest complaint, only two on top front closest to the user and neither are USB 3.2. They also face away from the front left glass panel which is a problem for USBs with LED indicator lights (i.e. Jabra headsets for mute signal, etc.) Also, they seem made of low quality material. Also, the packing/protection warning tape stuck over the ports/connector plate in the back left way too much glue residue when peeled off. This will be a pain to clean the glue residue off.

Purchased this during a Labor Day sale, and let me tell you, this PC has been quite the beast. I bought it as a replacement to my last PC which was finally dying after 8 years. After nearly two months of daily use, it has held up very well. It has handled pretty demanding games at max settings and the standard benchmarks with ease (Uningine, Furmark, etc.). It has an 19-11900KF and a ZOTAC RTX 3090 Trinity OC. Build quality was phenomenal. Cable management was superb and all hardware is in good condition. Still fairly expensive though, but not much to be done about that in the current market with the semiconductor shortage and supply chain issues. It only comes with 16GB of RAM, while I would have preferred to see 32GB in a desktop like this, but that's easily expandable with two open slots. The one downside is that it came with an 800W PSU. This is functionally the bare minimum for a system with a such high power requirements and I could see hitting that limit in extreme cases. Would have liked to see a slightly higher PSU (1000W). If you buy this, I'd recommend swapping it out. All in all, I would highly recommend this. Though, as with many other places recommending the same thing, if you don't really need a 3090, I'd stick with a 3080 as that will more than do for most people unless you explicitly need the extra VRAM.

The best pre-built PC I've had in terms of build quality and care. Unlike in most pre-builds the AIO CPU cooler actually works. The case airflow is good as the GPU wouldn't go above 74C and can be resolved completely by adding some fans at the top as outtake or removing the front panel, which made the GPU stay at around 67C.
