A:AnswerHello, and thank you for your interest! The number of Frames Per Second a game can reach varies greatly by what applications are open, your in-game settings, and even what monitor display you're using. You can expect an average of around 180-240 FPS in 1080p high settings.
A:AnswerThere are two main ways to adjust your fans for optimal performance:
ASUS Armoury Crate Software
You can use the Armoury Crate software to tweak your fan settings. However, in my experience, the software can be a bit cumbersome and not really worth the hassle. It’s functional, but it might take some patience to navigate and set up properly.
Directly Through the BIOS
I personally recommend adjusting your fan settings directly through the BIOS. It’s a quicker and more straightforward process that saves you the trouble of downloading and dealing with extra software. Plus, the BIOS interface is easier to use for this purpose and offers the same level of control.
In the BIOS, you can set your fans to "Silent Mode," which is great if you want them to run quietly without sacrificing performance. It’ll take a bit of tweaking to find what works best for you, but this method has been much smoother in my experience.
Just my $0.02—hope this helps!
A:AnswerUpdate the BIOS, then:
BIOS > Advanced > Fan Controls (might be called something different) > change mode to PWD > change curve to custom and adjust > check off "Fan Stop"
Checking off "Fan Stop" is a must, or it will not work.
A:AnswerHello, the PC does not come with any Display Port or HDMI cables. Any new modern monitor or TV will include the necessary cable for use. If not, an HDMI or Display Port cable will do just fine.
A:AnswerWhen purchasing from retailers, everything comes put together. There are some included instructions to help finalize set up, such as plugging in correctly, removing the interior packing foam, etc.
A:AnswerUnfortunately, the motherboard usually isn't listed because it varies by whatever brand/manufacturer iBUYPOWER has in stock at the time of production. If it helps, this model uses the B760 D5 chipset. Some of our popular brands we use our ASUS, MSI, Asrock, etc.
A:AnswerThe Pure Sine Wave UPS's at Best Buy give a lot of runtime. However, I only need 5 minutes to shut everything down. Does this computer really need a pure sine wave UPS, or can it do without?
A:AnswerHello, and thank you for your interest! The model on the website you are referring to is an older model, with a similar naming scheme that is no longer in production. The specs on this listing are correct.
A:AnswerHello, and thank you for your interest! The system comes with WiFi, which means it is a wireless connection. You can, however, use an ethernet cable for a wired connection as well.
A:AnswerHello, and thank you for your interest! You can add an external hard drive and connect them to our PC via USB. As far as changing the different RGB modes on the mouse, you would need to click the DPI + Left Click button simultaneously. That would cycle between the different modes.

A:AnswerHello there, the ports on the back vary based on the exact motherboard being used. While the exact brand/manufacturer of the PC is uncertain since parts vary by what's in stock, this motherboard will be a B760 D5 mobo (typically brands like MSI, ASUS, etc.). Hope that helps!
A:AnswerHi! This model features a B760 DDR5 motherboard + 16GB*2 RAM, so upgrading your setup from 32GB to 64GB will be easy! You just need to grab 2 more RAM sticks and pop them in. Just a quick heads-up: make sure the new RAM you buy is DDR5 and matches your current speed to avoid any compatibility issues!
