    I got this to replace the cheaper cx10gn i believe and everything was of less quality then the one that i had less fan headers a weird blower 1660ti i could not find online anywhere the old asus had the lowest model phoenix 1660ti but it was good and an i5 and all the fan headers i could need i dont need rgb everything but they charge so much for basic everything. Models usually show a liquid cooler but unless you pay like 3g for a i9 and 2080 u get the most stock one i could imagine. I ended up taking this back getting ibuypower 1,500 this was like 1200? But the ibp had i9 and 2070super liquid cooler rgb everything i replaced that stuff with stuff i like but asus pre-builts are overpriced and lacking compared to the competition

    Great Entry PC

    So I bought this PC during the COVID-19 Pandemic, I had plans to build my own but with the drastic increase in prices of single parts, I opted for a pre built that I could upgrade down the road. Now let’s get into the review. I am impressed with the PC, I think it’s a great budget friendly set up that can cut through any modern day games demands. Since installing it I have ran modded BO3 Zombies, FiveM, Total War 2, and the Forrest and I have not noticed any issues with performance. The graphics card does get pretty warm, to be expected. To balance this I have a fan pushing cold air in through the back. Now part wise I think this COULD be a bit better for the price, I think that for $1300.00 bucks it could offer users more storage and a better motherboard with Heatsyncs on it. The motherboard does not allow any extra fans to be ran through it. Which is an issue for me. This PC comes equipped with a NVME 500 GB hard drive which is way to small to download a full game library. To counter this I had to pipe in an extra $200.00 to get 2 more SSDs that are compatible. MY BIGGEST issue with this build is the fact that ASUS took out the stock AMD Wraith cooler for the CPU and supplemented it with some garbage off brand CPU fan cooler which just isn’t fair to the buyer at all, in my opinion. Also the fan in the back of the case is fairly week. How ever, if you have a tower fan and desk fan you can keep the PC nice and cool until you upgrade the fans and cooler. A very nice feature is that ASUS pre installed a GPU mount bracket that holds the GPU firmly in place with no sag. Overall I am happy with my purchase but wish I did receive a bit more. PROS: -1660ti -Latest gen CPU -plethora of USB and HDMI Ports -16 GB 3200MHZ Ram -500W 80+ Gold Power Supply CONS: -Lack of Drive storage -Poor Fan and Case space -Weakish Motherboard -Horrible Cable management

    This machine has been more than i have expected. There are 2 draw back to this machine, 1st is that the cpu cooling fan is weak and i wish it came with the Amd Wraith Prizm cooler that all Amd chips come with. 2nd is that there is only 1 case fan port on the board, so if you want to add additional cooling fans you need a 4pin splitter or a fan that uses sata. Other than that it has been a power house for all i have thrown at it. I would highly recommend this machine or any like it.

    This is a great choice for a gaming computer for starting to transition from console. Since I've had it there have been no issues and it was also very easy to setup. This is definitely a great deal for a pc that can handle some of the most intense games with ease. The specs were very accurate and honest about how the computer will operate.

    Best Buy Horrible- Computer Great

    Well- After receiving a dud computer my first round, then hauling it up to geek squad just to tell me that the motherboard was shot- then returning the old computer to Best Buy, then having the guy type in my address wrong even after spelling it twice for ordering in store to ship to my home, then being on the phone off and on for two days nonstop almost having a panic attack trying to get my address changed, then it finally coming to my house in the end after all. It worked amazingly. I gave the computer 5 stars but Best Buy all in all in general a 1-2 stars because of how the whole situation was handled.

    Super fast. Good computer. We use it to run graphics for our church services and it handles that effortlessly. We have had it for almost 2 years and it has started popping BSODs up every week lately. Other than that, it's great!
