I've had this baby for 3 years now and she's still running strong. The liquid cooling with 3 fans is perfect for keeping things cool and the processor is still quick and agile. I can't imagine a better rig at the price point this one was at.

Ok, with all the anti-ibuypower reviews online, I was skeptical. But after comparing apples to apples, the price just couldn't be beat. I'm not a gamer, but I did need a fast machine for Video/photo work.
Lets break it down: Motherboard was unknown, couldn't find a link anywhere. But it comes with an ASUS Z170-K, with tons of extra connections for 4 slots for memory (up to 64 GB), lots of USB 2 & 3 ports, M.2 sockets (look it up, it's cool), can run dual graphics cards, slots for 4 SATA hard drives and 2 SSD drives. Got an i7 6700K @4.0... it's FAST! You can be up and running in seconds. Very little pre-loaded crud, except for Microsoft Office (trial). After loading my Adobe CC, I had all other programs loaded to D drive to save SSD space (yeah, 256 GB would have been nice)
Comes with front-top-back blue lighted fans. Asetek liquid cooling fan and a 500 watt power supply. Now the bad news... my graphics card runs a little loud, like you can hear it down the hall. The customer support helped me walk through some solutions, but was unable to reduce the fan speed. It wasn't a deal breaker... but will keep an eye/ear on the issue. Everything is running under 30 C, so I'm happy. All the other fans are very quite.
This is my first full-tower, and it's tall. It did take me an half-hour to plug in the HDMI (running two computers on same monitor)... because the HDMI port was covered up (plastic sleeve) on the graphics card, so I didn't notice it. The system comes bare-bones... no extra cords except the power cord. So be ready if you run VGA. No SD card reader either .

Long review but definitely worth reading if you are in the market.
This computer is amazing, I was a bit skeptical because of the brand, but I quickly changed my mind after having this baby for a couple of days. I originally bought it to stream games on twitch so if you are looking to do that this machine is perfect.(side note, I purchased an Elgato Hd60 Pro to install on this machine and was able to do so no problem.)Also this machine can support some heavy intense gaming it can definitely handle anything you throw at it. It was also really well packaged by the manufacturer. Overall its a great computer my only two complaints on it would have to be that in the picture bestbuy has on their website it has the blueray compatible version, when i got it, it only supported dvd, which is fine by me since I already have a ps4 that supports blueray. My second issue was the i buy power logo decal was actually slightly tilted so i had to push it back into place, it made me really skeptical when i first opened up the computer but once I booted it up and went through the set up I quickly realized I had nothing to worry about. Definitely recommend this to anyone for anything, hope this helps your decision making!
P.s When this is on sale for at least 100 dollars off, i got it for 1179.99 its going to be cheaper then going to the ibuypower website and building something close to this model. Good luck!

Super Excited when i picked up the PC at the store and as i expected the PC passed with flying colors and its runs so well on my games that i play specially to Blade and Soul.
Price also doesn't blow my budget this PC is perfect for gamers that doesn't have that much budget. Very recommended to people that love playing MMO and other games.

Some ports don't work

At first I was very upset because when I attached the vga cord to the computer nothing appeared on the monitor but the computer was on. After trying every port the only one that worked was the hdmi at the very bottom separate from the other video ports. Hence the hdmi port next to the vga didn't work ether. After setting up and running the computer I haven't had any other issues. The ssd allows the computer to run fast and smoothly and the graphics are a,axing as well as the shadow recording feature. If anyone can inform me how to fix the video ports problem please comment!!

I love this computer I usually go with a boutique gaming computer. This time I decided to go with off the shelf, I don't regret it. Good looking computer to start with. The keyboard and mouse feel okay not great. I suggest upgrading that. Everything to do with the hardware is perfect for high end gaming. I run all PC games on high settings, the computer has no struggles. The only thing I kind of had trouble with was the downloading and saving games onto my computer. The computer saves games on to the SSD card automatically, but theres no possible way to fit all MY games on there. So I had to manually change where my games folders would save. The 2TB HD is where I wanted them to go. I love this PC I recommend iBuyPower to anyone.

I had to replace an old computer (purchased in Feb 2007) and was looking for something that would allow me to run two flight simulators as well as handle everyday documents, e-mail, Internet, finances, Astronomy, photo editing, and desktop publishing. Every PC I looked at was inadequate to the task. Then I was shown the iBUYPOWER Core i7. Now we were in the ballpark. I needed at least 6 USB ports and when you consider that all the keyboard and mouse connections are now USB there were not enough ports to suit my needs. What I liked about the iBUYPOWER was that it came with PS2 ports for the keyboard and mouse; thereby freeing up 2 USB ports for other uses.
From the second I turned on this computer I was impressed with the speed with which it initialized. It only took about 30 seconds. There is nothing in the computer that was put there by the manufacturer (nothing needs to be removed). All you have is your operating system (Windows 10 Home 64 bit). It is ready for your program installations.
Fast...boy is this thing fast! Internet access is almost instantaneous. Programs load and run in a matter of seconds. Simulators run at real time without screen hesitations. The graphics are magnificent.
I'm not a "gamer" in any sense, but I'm very pleased that I purchased this machine. My photo editing displays are so real it's scary.
I highly recommend this computer to anyone who wants speed and high quality graphics.

PC games have always been my favorite, but this is the first time I've had a system capable of supporting them to a reasonable degree. I've purchased several upgrades for other systems over the years trying to get higher quality and more frames, but to have a system out of the box capable of displaying games so beautifully and fluidly is amazing. If you do yourself the favor of getting this system, please update the video card driver before trying anything out and you'll probably be blown away. I could go on and on about what a well put together system this is, but the most noteworthy thing is the quality of the gameplay you'll experience. If you are like me and have been making due with systems not really meant for gaming, you will now see graphics and animations that were never there on low-medium quality. I look forward to expanding my library, making tweaks, and making this system truly making this system my own in the coming months.

We purchased this PC for my wife. She needed a computer that could handle playing video-games like World Of Warcraft, but also handle all her business needs. She uses it to maintain and run her website, as well as running her photo editing and designing programs. Its very fast, & the design is sleek and great, she loves it. She hasn't had any problems.

We purchased this computer to run graphics programs such as corel draw and stone cut for our screen printing company. This computer runs all of our programs flawlessly and is extremely fast. I never thought I could love a computer as much as I do this one! It is such an upgrade from my last computer it is incredible! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this computer!

I bought this computer for my 13 year olds birthday. He is really into video games like Mine Craft and NBA2K17. I asked my son to write down the specs he wanted for a gaming computer. This computer matched everything he wanted at the price I was willing to spend! This computer was at a great price, has a powerful graphics card and processing speed, large storage and multiple USB ports. The other important thing for us was that is was expandable. We can continue to upgrade in the future as needed and not have to buy a whole new computer then. Also, the fans are very quiet - you almost cannot even tell the machine is on! We did the research and this computer is the best choice in this price range.

Overall I love this computer. It does exactly what I need for my gaming experience. The only issue I've had so far was a connection issue with my internet (this had to be related to the computer as my husband was still gaming online with his at the time of my connection issue) Rebooting the computer seemed to fix the issue. And personal preference when the computer's inside lights are turned off, the lights on the fans are EXTREMELY bright.
