Customer Ratings & Reviews

I picked this computer up to liven up my office a bit. Occasionally my kids get bored while waiting on me and this little gaming computer has all the right spots checked. With an nvidia 5060, 1tb ssd, i5 processor, and 16gb of ram, it can game well. Wifi is good on this and runs well. The rog 27” curved monitor I have paired with this works well with this. The kids fire this up and play forza and fortnight quite easily. Load time is very good. The case footprint is average for a desktop. And the case itself solid build. Clear and the internal led’s look good. The airflow is very good also on this. It seems very well ventilated. Even with all these fans, this is pretty quiet. I do have some word processing and photo editing software on this and they all work well. I have hooked up cd drives to this and they all work well. Overall. I think this is a fair value, competative at this build level. I had the ROG monitor for over a year and had liked it’s performance, so when I saw this, I figured it would be good also, and it is. I do reccomend this. Well packed I the box when shipped. And trust me, the shipping company that dropped this off tested it in our area. Nothing was broken thank goodness but it is dusty. This is a good value.

This purchase has been an good choice. It is a beautiful unit and it is fast.

love this gaming comp! what can i say fast easy to use and super affordable

Beautiful computer needed for work it does excellent what I need

A good computer so far. Working well for what we bought it for.

It does everything described. Love it. Looks pretty too.

Not very happy this model does come with 16 gb of ram but in the description it says it’s in dual channel 2 of the 4 slots are occupied when I unboxed my unit it only populated 1 slot but weirdly it was 1 stick of 16 gb ram at 6000 mega transfers… I have yet to go back to Bestbuy to see if they can fix this without having to to a full return.

Overall I think the ASUS ROG G700 Gaming Desktop is a very good value at this price point when considering the hardware. I think you get 90% of the function at 50% of the cost of a workhorse gaming PC. Physically, the PC is imposing. It has a very large case which is good in some ways but it certainly isn't space saving. The beauty of the case is the ease with which you can access the interior without tools and there is so much room to work with if you want to upgrade components later on. The RGB lighting is dynamic but not overbearing. There are 3 Display Ports, 2 HDMI ports, and 13(!) USB ports for all your peripherals. You'll be able to connect anything you want. The fans are also impressively quiet. Even during stress testing I could barely hear the fans and I never saw the CPU temps go above 75C. This is without overclocking. Speaking of, you will want to enable XMP in the BIOS settings to gain a little bit of power and performance. As mentioned, gaming frame rates, smoothness and lag are all pretty impressive if not top of the line by any means. I would say that the PC fights above its weight class in this regard. This is not billed as a performance productivity PC and that shows a little bit. Video and image editing is not as snappy as on my other desktop PC with hardware that is dedicated to that use case.

The ASUS ROG G700 is a solid mid-tier pre-built desktop to enable a quality performance for routine standard use. The box comes with the standard ROG symbol on the outside, which I have grown to love over the past couple years since experiencing ROG devices. The desktop is well packaged with sturdy foam to be able to absorb any impact and there is a small additional box that has the various paperwork including quick start guide, a WiFi antenna and the power cord. The chassis is about standard size - boxy in shape but sleek appearing, an upgrade to my previous white/black chassis of similar size. The case is equipped with all the fancy LED including a pretty ROG crystal/symbol viewable from the side. There are 3 front fans and back fan equipped with LEDs and then a box at the bottom to hide overall bulk, equipped with LED as well. Overall the LEDs and general sheik appearance are a nice touch and set up for a gaming device. Set up was relatively quick for windows (about 30-40 mins) and device was ready to go. The desktop runs quietly and stays cool with the setup, suspect this is due to the sleek management of the hardware. The Intel Core Ultra 5 with 16GB of RAM is paired with the Nvidia RTX 5060. The Intel Core does not have integrated graphics, which necessities the GPU. I will admit this makes me a bit nervous for the future as I have had Nvidia driver update in the past that wrecked the device to where the only way I could get display was plug directly into the CPU. There is 16GB of RAM but open ports available, so increasing this is not out of the question. There is 1TB of space, which used to be a larger amount but now I would consider it standard and can typically hold about 3-5 of the current more extensive games on the market. There are 3 display ports and 1 HDMI port usable. There are 11 USB-A total and 2 USB-C, which is near standard amount for USB-C in my last 2 desktops; however, I am hopeful this will be changing in the future as more and more peripheral devices have USB-C at this point (mine are both filled). The desktop has ROG Armoury crate which provides access to customization of RBG and also various datapoints/diagnostics you may with to know. The computer runs smooth. Day to day use I have not had any issues. Streaming is overall seamless on its own and capable even with multitasking pending adjustment to some graphics settings. I have been able to play my standard titles with this device, particularly FFXIV and BG3. FFXIV I had to tweak the setting to be medium to avoid lagging in gameplay, and I did struggle at times to stream while gaming. I would say the settings tended to be more manageable for the desktop with 1080p versus any higher resolution. I also still play OSRS so used Runelight w/the GPU plugin activated. Overall, this desktop delivers the marketed ability to game, as expected with the ROG line. Out of the box, one is able to play and enjoy the life of desktop gaming at a moderate level on a mid-tier priced device. Many would be content with this setup, especially if starting out in the PC gaming world.

Asus has been known for making performance and gaming PCs for a while and I usually look at the offerings from Asus first when I shop for a new desktop PC. This time I went with the middle range configuration of ASUS’s new 2025 ROG G700 series. I really think this PC was designed to balance affordability with solid gaming performance. Asus G700 also has the Ultra 7 and Ultra 9 models, however this model still packs enough power for modern gaming and creative workloads. I used this PC for various tasks from Outlook and Microsoft suit of apps to gaming and editing YouTube and family videos. Gaming titles like Cyberpunk 2077, Call of Duty, Fortnite ran beautifully at 60 - 120 FPS on high settings on my 1080p display. When I switched over to my Asus OLED monitor, at 1440p gaming some of my AAA games averaged 50 to 80 FPS on medium/high settings. When I pushed it to 4K gaming, I could definitely notice a difference: lighter gaming titles were playable all right, but demanding games I mentioned above required some tweaking and reduced settings. Unfortunately, the RTX 5060 is not designed for consistent 4K ultra gaming. I would say the graphics card in this PC is comparable to RTX 3060 Ti/4060 in performance, but optimized for efficiency. I am planning a few upgrades for this PC to make it more future proof. This PC supports DDR5 upgrades beyond the stock 16GB, so I will definitely be adding another 16 Gigs to it. Storage is also an easy upgrade as it uses M.2 NVMe PCIe slots, so you can swap or add larger SSDs. I also read that its RTX 5060 can be replaced with higher-tier GPUs like RTX 5070, 5080, and hopefully its space and power supply capacity won't limit those options. Also its CPU is socketed so theoretically it is upgradeable to Ultra 7 or Ultra 9. However, ASUS often uses proprietary motherboards, so compatibility depends on BIOS support, fingers crossed, it will be OK. I feel like this computer is a good example of ASUS balancing premium design with controlled upgradability, which I like and its gaming performance did not disappoint either. The ROG G700 Ultra 5 is a sweet spot for many mainstream gamers: very smooth 1080p, also capable of 1440p, and future-ready design at under $1K. Definitely recommend it to anyone who is on a budget.

I got into computers with the XT that ran at 4.77Mhz (that is mega, not giga) but had a turbo button you could press and get 10Mhz, which was fast for games. While the turbo button was somewhat of a gimmick, it did serve its purpose, when some early games, would run way way too fast, and the Mhz got put down to 4.77Mhz button. I never once used it. Why? Because I want to fly, and that's always been why I built, or bought, or both, personal computers. Computers are art, not just tech, and it's about time the manufacturers, such as ROG, really nail that point to the wall, and offer something to display to others, and yourself, and not just a super fast gaming rig, which this is. What will I use this for? A lot of gaming, of course, but also for AI. As someone who works in engineering, the use for this machine for AI is what is the appeal, not it's ability to churn out frames in Black Ops 7 (which, no worries, it does!) because this machine has an NPU, what can be used to render AI, which will help my life immensely, and everyone else's as well who buys this, even if they don't know it yet. Unboxing was great, ASUS takes great care to give you a simple, yet highly effective fun aspect to the glorious unboxing of this majestic creature. The machine looks the part, very high tech, and the lighting around the PSU is simply amazing, pictures do not do it justice, it's fully lit, and it's heavy glass, you can fill in the details. It's a whole new look for a PC, unlike any that I've ever seen before. This thing runs very cool, and very quiet, even while gaming you only get a bit more fan usage. The chassis is wide open, and a simple screw allows for the heavy glass partition to be removed for working, or just admiring this beast of a machine. I build my own PCs but for this, well I think it does quite well for us gamers who want to buy, not build, because life is too busy sometimes when you need an upgrade. Oh I'll still make it better, by filling in the SSDs, adding two more to it, and swapping out the really, superfast 5060 for my main card, the ASUS Astral 5080 RTX, and then, well it will fly higher than I've ever flown, but for now, it's aces man, total aces, you won't regret it, now go buy this beast as a Christmas gift to yourself, I mean "the family" ;) WINNER

The ASUS ROG G700 is a gaming desktop that immediately feels like a strong value the moment you start using it. For the price point it is usually sold at, the level of performance you get is genuinely impressive. It’s a good deal at $900. With the Intel Ultra 5 225F and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 paired with 16GB of memory and a 1TB SSD, everyday tasks feel effortless and gaming performance at 1080p and 1440p is smooth and consistent. When you compare this to what it would cost to source all of these parts and build a similar system yourself in today’s market, the prebuilt price feels very fair and in many cases ends up being the better deal once everything is tallied. The overall build quality is another good to great. The case feels solid, well finished, and measures close to 58L, which is large, and is thoughtfully laid out. The main panel is easily removable, making access simple when necessary. There is a reassuring sturdiness to the panels and the internal layout is clean and organized. The size of the chassis is especially appreciated because it leaves plenty of room for future upgrades, whether that is a larger graphics card, additional storage, or improved cooling. It feels like a system that was designed not just for today but also with long-term ownership in mind. That said, it’s a very “gamer” aesthetic, so if you don’t want that vibe maybe think first prior to buying. You could always move everything to a new case, however. There are a few drawbacks worth noting. The large PSU shroud takes up a noticeable amount of space inside the case, which slightly limits how flexible the lower portion of the system can be for expansion. ASUS also includes some proprietary software that you may not ever feel the need to use, especially if you prefer a cleaner system without extra background apps. Lastly, the keyboard and mouse that ship with the system are functional but very basic, and they do not match the quality of the computer itself. There is an additional M.2 slot on the MOBO, but ASUS didn’t include screws to add this in, which is an odd choice considering almost any other manufacturer does that. The GPU is good enough for all 1080p gaming and some 1440p gaming, but the 8GB VRAM is lackluster for future proofing. But of course, you probably understand that going in. It’s good for another 2 years but after that it may be time to upgrade. Overall, the ROG G700 delivers a good balance of performance, build quality, and upgrade potential for its price. It is an excellent option for anyone who wants strong gaming and productivity performance in a system that feels well constructed and ready to grow, as long as you are prepared to replace the included peripherals and accept a few internal layout compromises.

The Case is outstanding, lovingly crafted for the ROG fan. The same general case is used for the whole G7 line, and it is a banger. It is huge, so you will need to have some space set aside for its enormous height, width, and depth. It has an interior cover with an inscription over the whole bottom, covering the Power Supply, which is a 600-watt class power supply. As far as case fans, It has three fans stacked in the front and one in the back, they are all RGB capable. There are no fans included in the ceiling, but there is plenty of space for them. The gaming keyboard and mouse that come with the computer are RGB, and basic (mouse is severely light for a gaming mouse), but serviceable to start out with, will probably be the first things swapped out for most users. A short list of pros and cons, some of these cons and pros I consider maybe nitpicky, but here goes: Pros: 600 ish watt PS is good for an entry level Gaming Computer, should be able to handle an upgrade to 5060ti or 5070 only though. New gen Core Ultra 5 is fine for Entry Level. 1TB stick drive is good. There is one easily found spot for an extra stick drive below and to the right of the hard drive. Cooling is very good, RGB light control is very good. Runs most games very good at 1440p with mid to high settings and almost all games great at 1080p with high to ultra settings. Motherboard can handle fairly high speed system memory (comes with one single stick of DDR5 6000 at 16GB. DLSS helps a lot with the limited hardware specs on the 5060 video card, perfectly understandable for a entry level gaming computer. Cons: 8 Gigs of VRAM on the 5060 will limited gaming headroom on ultra settings and getting into widescreen territory or north of 1440p. Comes with a single stick of 16GB RAM. This is the biggest negative. It is very hard to get a single stick of RAM at retail anymore, they basically only sell them in kits. And the with the price of DDR5 RAM as of right now (late Nov 2025), you really should not plan on upgrading the RAM yourself right away, because the price is not worth it. Buy the Prebuilt with the RAM you want to end up with already in it. I upgraded to 32GB (2x16GB) of DDR5 6400 and it is a noticeable improvement, as it should be from a single stick of slower RAM, but I already had the RAM on hand from an earlier swap out on another machine. I would recommend this for someone who wants an entry level gaming computer with a very fancy case, i.e. a budding ROG fan. Remember, after you are done with any BIOS upgrades, and/or upgrading the RAM, be sure to go into the BIOS at bootup and turn on XMP. Its simple and on the home page of the BIOS, that way you get the most out of your memory module's speed capabilities.

This ROG gaming desktop is a lower end ROG gamer from ASUS and is designed for casual gamers. You won't get and shouldn't expect high end competitive level performance. What you do get is decent mid-level gaming performance powered by the Intel Core Ultra 5 CPU and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060. The case is a full-size tower with customizable RGB lighting. The motherboard is ASUS B860M Max Gaming AX and components are upgradable. The sound card is just the standard Realtek audio. This is a great looking system when it's powered on and the case with the glass panel left side and three sphere front panel are lit up with the customizable RGB lighting and the keyboard and mouse are RGB color cycling! There're more than enough ports for any peripherals - 6 USB-A 5g; 4 USB-A 2.0; 1 USB-A 10g; 1 USB-C 5g; 1 USB-C 20g; 2.5g ethernet; 1 HDMI; 3 DisplayPort; plus, headphone and mic ports. The Wi-Fi is Wi-Fi 6 with an external antenna. A keyboard, mouse, and power cord are included. The keyboard is ten-key standard sized, RGB backlit with membrane switches. The keys are smooth and silent; they have a nice feel to them. The mouse also has RGB lighting. Both the keyboard and mouse are good quality but the Armory Crate version on this PC doesn't recognize either of them, so it's not possible to create macros or do any other customization on either of them. You'd have to upgrade to a specific ROG gaming keyboard and mouse listed as compatible with this system to be able to customize their functions through Armory Crate. To get the best performance possible from this system I recommend checking the graphics settings on high resource demanding games. For example, some games, like Call of Duty Modern Warfare Warzone, may have Ray Tracing enabled by default, which will max out the VRAM on the RTX 5060 and degrade performance. Other settings on games that put a heavy load on the CPU may max out the Intel Core 5 and also degrade performance. This ASUS G700TF will perform it's best when specific game settings are moderated on games that put a high demand on computer resources. Bottom line this is a great system for casual gamers who want good performance with good looks.

The Asus Rog G700 is the perfect pre-built machine to get into PC gaming without sacrificing anything. And if you want to you can upgrade it yo a beast of a machine. Getting into PC gaming has never been easier with Asus. They built a great "entry level" machine here that will be plenty for a new or seasoned gamer. Specs wise you'll get great 1080p performance which when played on a great monitor is hard to distinguish from 4k. Setup was as easy as can be with Windows 11. If you've set one up before it's still as simple as it can be. The machine itself is beautiful. The lighting and materials used look like a much more expensive PC. It's nice and quiet even when the fans are at full. I really like the lighting effects on this. Sometimes it can be a bit distracting but here it just looks like a light show. When it comes to performance I was pleasantly surprised that everything ran nice and smooth. No issues at all unless you try to push it passed the settings it's made for. And of course this does much more then gaming. It excels at all the other things you need in a PC. Videos, browsing, etc. are no problem. Even though it isn't necessary I'm looking forward to upgrading this into a bit more powerful specs. But for someone looking to get into PC gaming for an excellent priceook no further. The Asus G700 has you covered!

The computer arrived in a large box that had the actual computer box inside, so it was well protected from shipping damage. First impression out of the box is that it's quite large. This is a tower case, so you need plenty of space for it. On initial boot, the fans are quite loud, but once the OS is loaded it quiets down significantly. There were no issues during Windows setup and it was a quick process. The computer is very fast and responsive. It loads applications quickly. We tested both Elden Ring and Call Of Duty, and both games were smooth and played well. The screen refresh rate was extremely smooth. Every game played showed 60+ FPS with reasonably high quality settings enabled. The video quality was outstanding. This was tested with the Alienware - AW2725D 27" QD-OLED QHD monitor at native resolution (2560 x 1440). It was also tested playing local video files as well as online streaming sources with excellent playback quality. Make sure you have the space for a full size tower unit, and this is an excellent choice for some pretty serious gaming. Pair it with a high quality gaming monitor for the best results.

Salesman in computers was very informational and helpful. He did great comparing and giving me the best bang for my buck with facts.
