Good specs, with a few caveats, cooling seems good temps rarely hit throttle levels, single channel ram I put in a 32 gb kit on top of the 16 included but that and putting extra data ssds in was easy. For the price dual channel ram would have been appreciated out of the box, performance is great with good enough thermals so far.

I've been gaming since 1994. First game was SC1. Now with 2 kids and a full-time job I may game 30 minutes perday. This tower is a wonderful step up from my previous fully loaded alienware pc. its quiet, it's smooth, it doesn't over heat. The games i play are basic though. rainbow six and cities skylines. frame rates are good.
