So, this was on sale when I bought it. Does not have optical drives but you can install them. The case is pretty heavy and durable. Air flow inside by default is really good. For a starter PC it is really good and is upgrade friendly on the inside. The mouse went out this year and I upgraded the graphics, RAM, and added an external Hard Drive. Works like a charm to this day without issues.

This is a great PC if you want to upgrade some things to use for gaming. I put my graphics card in as soon as I got it and everything runs great. It has a seat for a second SSD drive if you want more storage space. The case has plenty of room to work inside it without struggling.

I purchased this computer to replace my home built pc that was 10 years old and showing its age on the performance side. This system is amazing. Latest i5 chip is super fast, ssd is a big difference from Sata HHD. Boot up time is ~30 seconds. My wife really loves it and we couldn’t be happier. Included keyboard and mouse are great for price.

A great PC at an affordable price. Setup was incredibly easy and went very quickly. The PC fires up very very fast and runs quietly. It has taken me a little bit to get used to the new keyboard but it is of good quality. I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the mouse that came with it. I am very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend it.

Even though this is a "gaming" computer and keyboard, I don't game and use it for home use. The price point was great and the processing speed is fast. Very happy with this purchase!

I bought this computer when it was on sale and I have to say, it is a very solid started computer. The reason I say “starter” is because you have the ability to customize the pc with relative ease. Had to send 1 back because some of the USB ports didn’t work ( Reason for 4/5) but overall a quiet and solid computer.

Good setup. I like being able to pick what level video card I wanted. I did have to upgrade the 400 watt power supply to 750 because of my beefy new video card and it did not come with a wifi adapter. I still like this set up

Just received it today, wish they would actually carry it in store but shipping was fast. Wasn't expecting much for cable management given the lack of a clear side panel but was pleasantly surprised when I opened it up. I would also have like to see room to add a 3.5" HDD since I am mainly going to be using this PC as a storage box/media server but will likely be moving it into a new case soon anyway. Overall this PC is a great deal for the price, just add a GPU and it is a great gaming PC. Main reasons for losing the star are the lack of 3.5" mounting and the fact that the wireless card is a USB card inside the case.

I purchased this system in hopes to use it for live-streaming but it's not quite powerful enough for that. It is just an overall good computer, but not for intensive computer work.

Searched far and wide, for any months, before deciding to go with this system! I clearly made the correct choice. The features vs the price was exactly what I needed to record/ produce music. Extremely satisfied!!!

I bought this for my mother in law who had an ancient computer that couldn’t keep up with anything new. Probably went a little overboard but she likes it and it wasn’t a bad price

It’s a really good pc for the price. But you will have to buy a grafix card and depending on what card u get u may have to upgrade the power supply
