QuestionAs you can see I am new to computers, so can I change the original ram sticks to upgrade the speed or not because I wish to install additional ram sticks and want it to run at 3000
Asked 6 years ago by Ethan.
- Answer No, I think you need to stick with the 2666 ram. That way, you only need to buy 16 Gb instead of 32. This system will run 99% of the current games... it is fast enough. If you aren't happy with it's specs go for the other one that sells for $1999, it's a slightly faster I7 . Cheers,

QuestionIs the keyboard and mouse that comes with the pc good for gaming(fortnite) or should I buy a keyboard and mouse?
Asked 6 years ago by FortniteGod.
- Answer They are good enough for any casual gamer. It will get the job done. The mouse is an iBUYPOWER Zeus E2 and the keyboard is an iBUYPOWER Ares E1. Personally, I use a BenQ Zowie mouse and a Razer Ornata mecha-membrane keyboard over the ones that come with it.

QuestionI bought this desktop a few days ago, when I turn it on, the loading screen shows Pro Series when it is loading; But I believe what I bought is an IBUYPOWER...Does anyone has the same issue?
Asked 6 years ago by Fan.
- Answer Ibuypower does not make the components that go into this PC, they source the components and assemble the desktops, so the "pro series" that you are seeing during boot up is referencing the MSI Pro Series motherboard that the BIOS is booting from.

QuestionIs this computer more than capable of running VR as is? Oculus Rift that is.
Asked 6 years ago by Richard.
- Answer I have an Oculus Rift S. Runs fantastic. I will say though I had to buy a USB 3.0 card (25usd) . Everything points that the MSI motherboard my computer has should be compatible but the Oculus Rift is known to be very picky with USB 3.0 ports. All my USB 3.0 device work correctly on USB 3.0 mode.

QuestionWhat type of cooling is this? If it is a water cooled pc is it sealed? Do I have to change the water inside?
Asked 6 years ago by Ibuypower.
- Answer It is not a water-cooled pc, it uses 2 fans and 1 CPU fan. For future reference, you only have to change open looped water cooling loops, not closed loop. closed loop is where the fan and a heatsink block are attached by pipes, open loop has a reservoir and tubes.

QuestionI'm interested in buying this pc for my nephew who is a gamer and streams his games. He uses single pc to stream and play. How upgradeable is this machine down the road? Will he be able to stream/play at the same time? Also will it support dual monitors?
Asked 6 years ago by JC.
- Answer This system should support all his needs for gaming/streaming. For streaming, obviously, a good download speed from your ISP will matter. Regarding upgrading - iBuypower uses a micro ATX motherboard from MSI. It offers NO added slots for expansion cards as GTX2070 graphics card covers what slots might have been available. I was concerned initially; however, couldn't think of any additional cards I would need. There is room for three additional 3.5" drives (HD or SSD). Only 2 of those are available due to length of graphics card. I believe the motherboard also supports a m.2 SSD expansion board. Likely under the graphics card as the included 1.0TB SSD does not use this expansion connector. The system runs fine and very fast. Recommend loading games, if there will be many, on a second drive and not on the bootable SSD. I added a 4.0 TB HD for programs. Note that added drives are mounted by opening the right side (no glass) of the case. You can only use the mounting holes on one side of the drive (seems sturdy though) The power connector attached to the ADATA SSD, in plain sight when you remove the glass left side, was disconnected. Reconnect solved "stuck at BIOS" problem. Probably more info than you needed. There are 4 video outputs on the graphics card and I am sure multi-monitors are supported. Nvidia software and drivers will assist the monitor setup. Enjoy

QuestionThis computer came with an MSI motherboard and GPU. It looks like the GPU blocks the second PCI-e slot. Want to install Vive wireless adapter PCI-e, is the solution to pull WiFi card and replace with USB or can the GPU be adjusted to free up the slot?
Asked 6 years ago by discordia32.
- Answer The MSI Card that comes in this PC takes up 2 1/2 slots as a lot of the new RTX 2070 and RTX 2080 cards do. It cannot be "adjusted" as there is only one full PCI video slot. the alternatives would be to pull the wifi/Bluetooth card or buy a thinner GPU.
