Good basic desktop system that seems solidly made in a not-too-big box. Has the features I needed, including lots of USB and audio ports.

Ok, with the exception of the geek squad, they started but didn't complete the installation. I still do not know if my printer is compatible with the PC. No cables to the printer.

Computer did not come with included software. Best Buy customer support refuses to resolve because computer was purchased in store. They claim issue can only be solved by store personnel.
Local store does not answer phone, call center will not have store reach out.
Computer is good.

Worked fine for about two months, then wouldn't start up after being shut down. 11 days turnaround for resolder of RAM module (not terrible) and it worked... for two weeks. Then 22 days turnaround (on "expedited" service because it's a recurring problem - terrible) for motherboard replacement. It's still working three hours after firing up. Fingers crossed. Couldn't talk to Best Buy personnel by phone at all. Updates on text were slightly helpful but not great. Not a great experience.

I've been using the ASUS V500 desktop for work and personal computing, and overall it has delivered exactly what I expected for a mid-range computer. The 13th Gen Intel Core i5 processor and 16GB of DDR5 RAM keep up with my multitasking demands with multiple programs, browser tabs, and light media editing without any lag. The 1TB SSD gives me nearly instant start up time, and responsiveness to my commands has been excellent.
Some standout features of this desktop is how quiet it is. Even when I have heavier workloads with video calls or data analysis, the fan can barely be heard. And I have not heard it run completely silent, during my lighter workloads and the fan can be stopped. It stays surprisingly cool, which means the design for thermal management is solid.
The AI noise canceling feature is nice feature, during video calls it can cut out back group sounds really well. Connectivity options are very good; multiple USB ports, HDMI, Display port outputs including USB-C for modern hardwear.
If you need a compact desktop that does not take up much space but will has good performance, this computer fits the bill. It isn't a gaming rig, but for Office tasks, streaming, and daily computing it is fast, quiet, and reliable.

The ASUS V500 Desktop is the perfect powerful mini desktop i needed. It is small and petite yet light and powerful as I needed it to be. The memory capacity it comes with is perfect for today demand and the solid state drive make it that much more secure and up to date. I wish i could say it looked great with all lights and extra accessories, but this is a workhorse, and it may not look pretty but it gets the job done. Overall set up was very simple, it came with a working mouse and keyboard that I will soon be upgrading. It comes with Windows 11 as needed to be. It does not have too many ports but it does what I need it to do. I am able to do minimal gaming and as much web surfing and video watching as my heart desires on this desktop. It is very light weight so mounting to a standing desk bracket wont be an issue for when the desk has to go up or down. I would totally recommend this desktop to anyone looking for a decent yet reliable computer to get their everyday things done. I am completely satisfied with what ASUS has done with this amazing laptop.

Nothing but problems. Screen randomly blacks out, crashes for no apparent reason, does mot handle jpeg or photoshop documents well. And it is only 3 months old. I purchased it to save a few dollars. What a mistake. This is the first and last ASUS I will ever own.
