Great PC, One con

The overall PC is outstanding! The AMD graphics are great, the only downside to the PC is that it doesn't have a CD DRIVE. Then again, it is a gaming PC and most PCs don't come with CD DRIVES. I would most definitely recommend this PC. It runs League of Legends at around 500+ fps low settings, CSGO maxed 300 fps (capped) and any other game you could think of.

ASUS at heart

Was surprised to find out this was built on an ASUS motherboard that can be overclocked through the BIOS settings. Fast and responsive, daisy chained dual Radeon graphic cards. I increased RAM to 32 GB since I work with large graphic files. Documentation for all parts used to build this machine are included with the computer as well as a Windows 10 physical disc! No wasted drive space - a big plus and very little unwanted programs to remove.
Two disappointments: no bluetooth connectivity and no WiFi connectivity. Would be a very tight squeeze to add a card for either in between the behemoth video cards.

Liquid cooled and never gets hot. Wicked fast!

After have owned the typical big corporate computers, I decided to go with a serious gaming machine that's liquid cooled and can appreciate it's beauty with it's see through tempered glass. I needed a machine that's going to last and can handle anything from simple spread sheets to serious games. My last machine died due to an overheated mother board. Unlike the giant corporate computers, IBUYPOWER has personalized service out of the San Jose California area with people who know the products. I looked at the Alienware competitor and discovered that it wasn't liquid cooled and was manufactured by a giant corporation whom I've already had bad experiences with. I was sold on the IBUYPOWER company and feel I'll get years of enjoyment out of this powerful machine. Liquid cooled is the way to go these days.

Powerful machine for gaming

Setup is easy and painless, the machine itself runs extremely quiet and the fans work well and silent. Didnt think I would like the power button on top as much as I do, having it there along with two USB ports and a headphone and microphone port on top up front makes for ease of use with having the box under a desk shelf. Removable graphic on the back showed what video card to prioritize for the monitor so that you cant easily get confused with the dual card setup.
Runs high end graphical games extremely well, the most graphically intense game that I current run being Skyrim Enhanced Edition and Dishonored 2, Skyrim automatically setting itself to Ultra settings. Dishonored 2 has some optimization issues that are no fault of the machine.
With proper care (side of the case is easy to open for dusting and cleaning purposes) this computer should last the purchaser for several years unless one demands to be on the cutting edge of tech.

Only bummer is no cd drive... the salesman told me there was one. I didn't notice until I opened it and it was a major let down. Would have definitely chose a different computer. This is a great computer though

Minor issue fixed through manufacturer

The CPU shipped with ambient LED lighting controlled by a 'credit-card' remote. The original remote didn't work, so after emailing the company they supposedly sent a replacement. Waited three weeks and contacted them again; apparently there was an 'issue' and they said this time it was sent. It arrived and worked as advertised.
This is a fast computer and boots quickly. Be advised that the red-LED fan lights can NOT be shut off - the remote only controls the light bar installed in the inside top-left of the case. Other than that, the computer is working as advertised.

Wanted to upgrade for a while. Saw this guy in store and the specs interested me. Purchased online and picked up in store. Took home and realized how few games actually support crossfire. Mine has the 2x rx480 4gb. I found myself on Amazon ordering new mobo and 2x gtx 1080s. Replaced and reinstalled and haven't had a single problem. 4k gaming is a sinch along with VR.

Before I purchased this rig I had less powerful machines that did an adequate job for the things I needed. This machine has obliterated all my expectations, I highly recommend one for those that have the need and money to get one. You will not be disappointed.

I went to purchase a certain Alien PC, But when I found this Rig
I fell in love with the Specs, and 100.00 less the Alien !
it even comes with a USB Wifi dongle. note the motherboard
supports duel AMD cards or a single nvidia card.
