Customer Ratings & Reviews

After 4 days with this machine I can say that overall it is a great gaming computer. The build quality is excellent with all black cables and great cable management behind the back panel. There are two sticks of 3200 ram, an Asus dual 3070, an NVME with a heat sink and an Asus B560-G motherboard. I was really pleased to find the motherboard is high quality with large heat sinks, decent looks, built in wifi 6 and a good amount of i/o’s on the back. Playing games yields great frame rates even at 1440p. The GPU stays right around 70 C but the cpu is a little warm around 75 C. User benchmark shows “UFO” across the board with gaming at a 150% of their reference values. Things I would change would be to add an intake fan, there is room for a 120mm on the front, replace the plain, green ram with something a little nicer looking , and get a larger outlet fan. The 92mm outlet fan really has to work. Overall a great machine at a reasonable price given the strange GPU environment we are in.

First the price is good for this CPU+GPU combo. (I would love to build myself but GPU price is just...). However you need to be ready to spend another 70-150$~ for cooling so it won't sound like a jet in your room. I read about changing setting in Bios for fan... well it didn't work as I expected, the temperate still high (70-80 just from updating graphic card drivers), and it still so noisy. Trouble shoot. 1. Bought iCue H100i Elite Capellix SPU Cooler - $138.99+ taxes 2.XTM50 Consair- High performance thermal paste - $7.99+ taxes Temperature dropped right away (around 45-55) while playing diablo 2 and tab of YouTube/Facebook. Good process but the back fan still so noisy, that annoyed me. Next bought a Noctua NF-A9 PM , Premium Quiet Fan 4 pin 92mm. - $16.95 on Amazon. Result: 35- 40 C, and so quite while playing diablo 2 with few tabs on (same as above) I was thinking about transfer everything to bigger case, but for now it looks like problem was solved... well you know, with 2 sons (2,3 years old). I don't want to take this apart if I must not need to. Everything is toys to them -_- took me 3 hours just to replace the AIO cooling in with their "help"

1. It is a great value to get a GTX3070 at this price. 2. Yes, the cooling system is REALLY bad. Besides, it's such a nightmare to upgrade. 1) Tried Corsair-iCUE H100i, but you must be very cautious cuz there's fairly no extra space inside the case. I had to return the PC and the cooler cuz the graphic card had some issues. ( I should check it before upgrading) 2) Then I bought this product again and added a Cooler Master Hyper 212RGB 120mm cooling fan, but it's too big to close the case. Cooler returned again. 3) Tried CORSAIR - Hydro Series 120mm ($70), finally it worked well. 4) The CPU temperature was almost 85C when I was playing games, and the fan, yes it was noisy. 5) Replace the back fan with a Cooler Master SickleFlow 92 and added another 120mm fan on the front case. ($10 for each) Finally, it worked now, after spending about $100 on it.

Wow, compter sounds like a jet fan. Swapped out cpu cooler for a Vetroo V5 that fits perfectly. Also added two 120mm fans in front, but had to drill an extra hole to reroute the power wire. Wish there was a spare hole to run it. Also swapped out rear 92mm fan in back and added another 92mm fan up top to the left of the cpu cooler. It was tight, as there are pegs from the top cover to account for. To take off the top cover, there is a cover over the handle that is hiding two screws. Just pop it off to expose them. All the little pegs and clips are flimsy as well. A few of mine are broken now. I might get a new case if I see on I like and swap. If you're not comfortable doing a little computer work, then this pc is not for you.

The motherboard on my PC died and as I was looking to build or buy, this PC caught my eye. I believe it’s worth it due to the current GPU costs alone. The PC booted up fine and didn’t seem to have any issues, but the case is definitely small for the 3070 and the cooling is sub-optimal. After reading the reviews, I decided to by a new case, the Corsair 4000d airflow case, along with the Corsair - iCUE H100i Elite Capellix. Got everything installed and it’s running really well! Just be sure you know what your doing if you decide to go that route.

Like other comments, besides the cpu cooler, other parts are top at this price. It's not hard to fix the cooler issue by yourself. I replaced the orginal cpu fan cooler by the "Corsair iCUE H100i Elite Capellix". The space just fits and all tools are included. The cpu temperature under 50 degree all the time when playing games(resident evil 8).

Out of the box this thing was thermal throttling at 100c at idle, upon reseating heatsink with new thermal paste it was ok at idle and thermal throttled (100c) in any games i played. Ended up grabbing a noctua nh-u9s cooler and mounted a couple 120mm fans foe better airflow. I manually set noctua cpu fan to 100% in Armory crate and at 2k rpm it keeps cpu around low 40s idle and mid 60s on full load. Noctua fan is pretty quiet even at max. Careful if you plan on mounting case fans as there are delicate connectors between front panel and case.

Pretty good components for todays market, especially for the GPU. This rig will run all games 60 fps. Like the other reviews however, cooling is an issue so make sure you have at least 100$ saved for an AIO cooler. 240mm can fit but its going to be tight. For reference, I bought the MSI Mag coreliquid 240r

Purchased this for the video card and immediately encountered the heating / fans cycling / sudden shutdown problems. I recommend: 1. Temporarily remove the case panel. Any airflow is better than none. Try not to throw away in anger... 2. Permanently remove the 92mm Case Fan, ARX FD1290-S0153E. It is practically useless. I temporarily replaced with 120mm Antec fan. 3. Hit F2 key on first boot to modify BIOS Settings. 4. Run the Q-Fan Control Calibration. Default profiles will lead to loud noises and shutdowns. 5. Change in Advanced settings, AI Tweaker\Digi+ VRM -> CPU Load Line Calibration, from Default (Level 3) to Level 5. 6. Save & Exit. If you can get through Windows Home setup, Congrats. Run MyAsus and create Recovery Disc (USB thumbdrive). While you are waiting: 1. Read more about Intel 10700F and RTX 3070 at techpowerup dot com 'i7-10700 Review': way to overclock without the K. 2. Read more about Asus Motherboard settings to try at techpowerup 'bad performance issue.' I temporarily swapped out the 3070 (DUAL-RTX3070-8G-PD) with my existing RTX 1070. Just in case it is the PSU... I replaced the Western Digital Blue PCI 3.0 NVMe M.2 with the WDS100T1X0E. I ran the Recovery disc (USB 3.0 thumbdrive) to install Windows on the PCI 4.0 NVMe. It was fast. Now I patiently wait for the following to arrive: 1. One BE QUIET! Pure Wings 2 92mm PWMCooling Fan (BL038) to replace ARX fan. 2. Two ARCTIC P12 PWM PST - 120mm Case Fan with PWM Sharing Technology (PST). 3. One Noctua NF-S12B redux-1200 PWM, High Performance 120mm Cooling Fan, 4-Pin. 4. One Noctua NT-H2 3.5g, Pro-Grade Thermal Compound Paste. I will permanently replace: 1. Stock CPU fan with Vetroo V5 CPU Air Cooler w/ 5 Heat Pipes 120mm PWM Processor 150W TDP. 2. Stock two 8GB 3200 GHz CL22 DRAM with Crucial Ballistix 3600 MHz DRAM (8GBx2) CL16 BL2K8G36C16U4B.

As most everyone has commented, the cooling out of the box is horrible. The CPU was at 100C+ under 0 stress, just sitting on the desktop with no apps open. Bought a $150 Kraken x53, and it now idles at 30 - 40C, at 70C when playing games. Also added one intake fan to the top (couldn't fit a 2nd, and had to ziptie one corner of the fan). If you don't mind installing a cooler, I'd say it's worth it.

After a little more than a month, I can say it is a solid PC, nothing loose or terrible about it. As feedback to the Manufacturer i would suggest adding a sort of filler to prevent the graphics card from moving during shipping as a precaution. For consumers such as me, i opted for not going for the AIO cooler and I HIGHLY recommend getting the Noctua NH-9S (either the black one or the original brown) for great Aircooling. I went from 100C to 60-80C depending on games such as apex, minecraft, and cod. Super quiet! If you use the program asus includes( or bios), you can slightly move the rear fan RPM to be quieter using the slider and let the quiet noctua do its job.

My first PC. Couldn’t build so I bought. Saw specs and figured this would be good for me for a while. I read other reviews and saw cooling so I ordered an AIO and an additional exhaust fan same day. I bought the MSI 240R and it’s a perfect fit after some cable management. Seriously, this rad is a perfect fit. Cool temps and works great. Read some reviews saying only 2 screws for mounting, but I managed to get 4 screws holding radiator and set fans for “intake”. Highly recommend the MSI 240R. Would give 5 stars if I wouldn’t have HAD to upgrade cooling.

Remove cpu stock cooler. Add 240mm aio in the front(with only two bolts on) and 120mm fan to the top. Its my first time upgrading pc desktop. Not so hard at all. Be confident in urselves. After upgrading, the cpu temp could stay below 65C under stress test. Overall its a great deal. Only need to spend 150 bucks more to upgrade.

Like everyone says it does need better cooling for cpu and better airflow but otherwise the components are great and it runs very smooth although if ur looking to get a big air cooler u might need a bigger case i installed a coolermaster cooler and it was too big too put the front panel on but no front panel means better airflow so not too bothered by it

Awesome pc i swapped the box & added fans but perfect

Great price for the specs. Like the other reviews said the cooling is garbage Will upgrade in the future but for now I’ll just takeoff the panel.

nice gaming PC， just need to upgrade the cooler system

Excellent Price for current market and parts, Cooling needs to be replaced and Im planning on upgrading case.

Great pc when you upgrade the cpu cooler and ram only things I changed are case ram and cooler, Still have no clue how to control fans plz help

This computer is good, especially for the graphics card, and it is very good for me so far. But, there is definitely some things you will need to fix for it. The cooling, for the CPU, is so bad. Like tremendously bad. I ran CoreTemp, a software used for measuring tempatures, and on IDLE, it was at 80 celsius. Now, don't stop reading there, because the computer isn't bad, but you have to get ready for some upgrades. If your looking for how to fix your cooler for your CPU, your gonna need to get your hands on a CORSAIR - iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX CPU Cooler 120mm . THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT I AM SURE WILL FIT IN THE CASE. You can try and go bigger, but DEFINETLY not recommended. I had a tech guy set this up, and it definetly was a little bit of a challenge. We had to remove the cover, that was covering the powersupply, to be able to fit it in there. YOU NEED to do this I am pretty sure, with this case specifically, there would be no airflow if you put it with the powersupply case on. After this upgrade, it's not loud, it's not bad, and runs beautifully. The rear fan isn't even utilized because of the AIO. For people who want a slower and less handiman fix, you can buy a PC case, and have Best Buy get a technician at their store to move each part of the PC to a new case. Definietly will take a lot longer, but it is definitely a lot safer. It now runs at 40db, which is about the same sound as a quiet library. I did method one though, I attatched my temperatures after the new install.
