Perfect for me
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not going to write a review without stating the obvious - needs more fans. However, if you are like me and just want something to play warzone at 200+ FPS on max settings and don’t care about mining or being a benchmark superhero then this is for you. The fans do get loud at times but it doesn’t last long. My gaming room is always super cold so that may help some with the cooling issues that others have reported. I can honestly say I have had 0 issues with cooling and the computer has never turned off on me.

Hot desktop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely CPU fan doesn't work well, its too small. Case box small too, hard to install big cooler 12mm. But I`m spend another 95$ for liquid cooling system 240mm and work perfect. 15500 benchmark.

Hot. Lack of additional cooling options.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Expensive. Runs hot. Expandability and cooling is lackluster. At least it uses standard sized components. However the motherboard does not use the standard bios available on the asus website.

Plug and play starter mining rig
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This PC works wonderfully. I was concerned about the negative reviews regarding poor thermals, but I bet on it anyway and I’m glad I did. I’m a console gamer so this is strictly a mining rig at this point. I’m getting a 100 MH/s hash rate, the GPU temperature averages at 37 degrees Celsius, and the VRAM temperature averages at 92 degrees Celsius. This is perfect! I took off the front glass panel because it doesn’t dissipate heat. The fan noise is minimal. Considering how expensive GPUs and other components are, you’re getting a lot of value with this product.

Needs Help
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I took the motherboard components, PSU, GPU and SSD and put them into a new case that could actually cool the parts. It was still cheaper than buy a 3080 off of ebay.

Posted .Dear Lumpy,
I'm sorry to hear that you had to take the parts from the original case to a new one in order for it cool efficiently. All our products do go through an intensive quality control testing process to ensure that customers get units that are in proper working condition, what you've experienced was not intentional and this was a random case. It is normal for the desktop, with the same hardware configuration and regardless of the manufacturer, to generate more heat than normal while under heavy load, especially during gaming, WINDOWS Update, and antivirus scan. When system resource utilization is high, this will generate more heat than normal and tends to trigger the fan to spin at full throttle. Please ensure the air ventilations are free from obstructions in order to have an efficient airflow for better heat dissipation. While gaming, please ensure no resource-hungry applications are running in the background, this will definitely spike the temperature. The heat or temperature does decreases or normalize once system resource utilization goes down. If you have any concerns, feel free to reach out to me at customerloyalty@asus.com and provide this link for reference. I'll do my best to provide a quick resolution to your case. Your feedback is important as it helps with improvements to ASUS Support channels.
Thank you for choosing ASUS!

Excellent Value
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.$1200 for a Intel i7 and Nvidia 3080. Yes. Why are you not getting it. Plays games excellently. Can be loud, but it is a non-custom gaming PC. Will likely be used for years by my daughter.

Great desktop but do not buy at full price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great performance, looks decent. only issue is that the fans are so loud. I wish I could change them but the space is so reduced that it makes it hard to do. I wish it had better cooling solution.

Thank you so much for the feedback, I'm sorry to hear that the fan is loud. There could be a lot of factors, please ensure to keep your BIOS up to date.

Fan is so loud
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The components are awesome but the cpu hits 100% when loading games and the one and only fan doesn’t help and is so loud you can’t hear yourself playing. The case isn’t good either.

Posted .Dear DonaldO,
We do understand your concern about the fan noise.
It is normal just like any other brand with the same hardware configuration, for the fan to spin at full-throttle and generates noise louder than normal while the PC is under heavy load like gaming, especially during the initial WINDOWS setup and WINDOWS Update installation. Also, the fan noise will be louder while antivirus software or malware are running continuously in the background. . Please ensure the air ventilations are free from obstructions in order to have an efficient air flow for better heat dissipation. While gaming, please ensure no resource hungry applications are running in the background, this will definitely spike the temperature. Also, please check the system was not compromised by viruses or malware by doing a full system scan using an internet security software or application. When system resource utilization is high, this will generate more heat than normal and tends to trigger the fan to spin at full-throttle and noise will be louder than normal. It does decreases or normalizes once utilization goes down.
Should you need further assistance with the product, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I would be more than happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent at: http://bit.ly/AsusLiveChat.

Not ideal for cooling
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Asus parts are great, but the CPU cooling is horrible. The GPU has been flawless, but the MoBo is giving some USB errors. Not sure if this is the MoBo itself or thr fact the CPU rides at 100C!!!!

Awesome Deal for a BEAST!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are alot of cooling complaints on here so I prepared and ordered other cooling equipment to be teady to replace. After more than a week of constant use I havent had any cooling issues with the fan that came with the unit. All I had to do was keep the glass cover off to have adequate circulation. I was going to get another one but I’m hoping some of the complaints did not ruin that opportunity and restock. some people do not know what an Awesome Deal you have is till its gone. You basically get a complete BEAST for the GPU at current scalper prices.

Unusable in stock configuration, scary hot temps
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Literally the worst cooling pc. I bought it for the 3080, which works great. I now have a new power supply, case, cpu cooler and added fans to make this computer run cool. Power supply would trip my gfi in the house every time I turned it on. New power supply fixed that. And false advertisement on the power supply itself. 90 gold rated? Is that even a thing? While sticker on it says 80. Hm. Computer thermal throttled and stayed above 90c with stock cooler and fans sounding like a jet engine. Never in my life have I seen or heard something out of a 2k pc like this. Never again asus.

Posted .Dear Valued Customer,
It's unfortunate to hear that the power supply failed and you had to replace it. As for the temperature, It is normal for the desktop, with the same hardware configuration and regardless of the manufacturer, to generate more heat than normal while under heavy load, especially during gaming, WINDOWS Update, and antivirus scan. When system resource utilization is high, this will generate more heat than normal and tends to trigger the fan to spin at full throttle.

Cooling
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great price for the hardware, but same story as everyone else. Absolutely TERRIBLE cooling, under load the 2 TOTAL fans spin at max rpm which is insanely loud. 1 Cpu fan 1 exhaust fan, 0 intake. This is a good buy if you're willing to swap the case and do a transfer

Comes with a ASUS TUF 3080
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It comes with a ASUS TUF 3080 if anyone is wondering. The cpu cooler needs to be changed out to a larger one.

||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The computer is nice, easy to set up. The only problem is by default, this was running in high performance in the power options. The computer temps were running extremely hot. This was after changing out the heat sink and upgrading the rear fan. There is almost no air flow coming into the front. I found a Youtube video where the user added a power mode where it runs about 90% power. I have my computer running on that and it never gets hot now. Runs great specs, but it's annoying to deal with. Eventually will upgrade the case so i can get better front air flow.

Performs Equal to the Price
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good PC. Only problem is it most likely will overheat when first bought, so you must install a new CPU cooler and a couple extra cheap fans and it should work great.

Well worth the price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic machine but needs more airflow. I have not had any issues yet due to the location and temperature of the room it is in but only two fans to cool the entire system is not enough.

DOA and Cooling Issues
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a rough one! Received the computer and it was not stable. After a bit of investigation, realized the computer was throwing kernel power failure which was a bummer, but it happens. Then when I looked at the time stamps, I realized ASUS had two kernel power failures at the factor 4 months earlier before shipping out.... This is the poorest quality control I have ever seen! With that said, I returned this product and this searched the internet for a replacement, but nothing was comparable in terms of power and value. I did purchase a replacement system that has been running a 72 hour stress test with no failure. As everyone else mentioned, COOLING IS AN ISSUE!!! I spent an addition $350 on a new case, CPU Cooler, and fans (2x120mm & 2x90mm)
