    This PC Has been with me fora couple months and I have had absolutely no issues with it. Its best for games that don take up too much, and if you want to run a big game it might be best to upgrade some parts. Other than that, this is a pretty good Prebuilt PC

    This is a good pc for starters like my self. It is good for Roblox discord and more games. I would suggest getting a better graphics card though. I made a good purchase with ibuypower.

    This would be good for simple games, and *maybe* minecraft (?)… all I know is that we got it a month ago for my son’s birthday and he is on the verge of tears daily because he can’t play the games he usually plays. He plays online big games with friends. He only loaded 2 games on the computer, roblox and dead by daylight. That’s all! The computer is constantly lagging because it can’t handle it. He thought it was the internet at first so was trying to ride it out or try different settings. We found out too late that Best Buy’s return policy is only 15 (FIFTEEN!) days!!!! We spent many hundreds on a computer and you only have a 2 week window to return it, AND(!!) the tech support is only available to us for 14 days as well! So we can’t even call to see if they can try to figure out if it’s fixable. We are beyond disappointed and our son is in tears. What a waste of money on what was supposed to be the coolest birthday gift… finally his own gaming pc. I would not call this a gaming pc, and would only buy it for young kids who are playing very simple games. The colors are really cool. I will update the review if they do any service recovery and allow us to either return it, or provide some product support and help us.

    Computer is running pretty good so far. I do have to upgrade the graphics card, but that's because the game I play recommends a 2GB and the computer came with a 1GB GPU so it has a little lag. Would recommend them though

    Starter Computer

    We bought this computer for our 11 yo as a starter gaming computer. Right out of the box, we couldn't get the lights to work in the tower. After lots of tutorials we have one color, but have not been able to get the lights to change colors. It runs Fortnite, however, you have to really play with the settings to get it to run smoothly. Also, after downloading an Epic coding program, the computer crashed. Had to remove software, uninstall Epic and then re-install. Could be user error, but never had this many issues right out of the box before.
