I want to start by saying this is an awesome pc. Great prebuilt for those looking to have a great gaming experience with great quality parts. Excluding the AIO, with a decent 3080 PNY GPU. Great ASUS motherboard, Intel cpu I7-12900KF and nicely looking tower. Poorly intake case design though. Good thing the towers front panel is easily removable when things are getting a little toasty internally. But a suggestion I might add. Be cautious of the AIO. Mine gave out after the 14 day return policy…20 days to be exact. Suddenly my CPU started to over heat. At the time I couldn’t figure out if it was a software of hardware issue. I bought Nautica’s thermal paste. Nothing. Replaced the integrated loading mechanism (ILM) nothing. Went into bios to disable overlocking, nothing. Until I noticed that when my PC ran ok. A odd sound came from above the radiator. Where the pump is actually located. So on the days my pc started to overheat. I went into bios and noticed the the motherboard wasn’t detecting the AIO pump plugged into the motherboards AIO header or CPU OPT FAN header causing the CPU to overheat. All the other fans were running good. Including the radiator fans on the AIO, but not the pump. Almost gave up as my first time experiencing something like this. But the love I have for my PC I couldn’t give up. Now cooling my PC is a 280mm Kraken X63. Which is an awesome looking and performing AIO. I can re enable Overclocking and with no overheating issues, and get back to gaming. Stay golden everyone and Game On.

Great PC Great VALUE!! I had purchased an ASUS gaming PC with the same specs, it ran loud as a jet, and as hot as the jet engine around 97c, and at 100c at times. This PC beats it hands down! it benchmarks higher due to running cooler and stable, it is silent even under load. Top tier build quality and parts to boot! If you're on the fence about this model well worth it!! I just cannot figure out how to control the RGB. LOL

This PC has been a beast for me since I got it almost a year ago. I've upgraded the RAM to have 64GB (probably overkill by quite a bit but oh well) and I've also installed a 2TB SSD that's faster than the one included but the RTX 3080 has been great at running most games in the 40-80 FPS range (I game at 4K resolution sometimes). The case looks great and is surprisingly roomy. Airflow seems decent enough and the included AIO liquid cooler does a pretty good job of keeping temps down although I'm probably going to upgrade to a 360mm radiator model since the case specs say it should fit. The CPU has handled any and everything I've thrown at it so far and the price was absolutely great around cyber Monday. If you can pick this model up, or the newer equivalent, I say absolutely go for it.Nice job ibuypower!
