Good but with Headache

So let me start off by stating that the computer runs amazing and is powerful. Can ha file anything you throw at it... but there is a downside to the nice price you see. It only contains two Fanta for the radiator. So technically there is not even 1 fan being used as a case fan exhaust or intake. This will cause your CPU and GPU to heat up to temps between 70-90c!!!! You will have to install a fan at top rear for exhaust and one or two in lower front for cold air intake to cool the case. When I contacted ibuypower to ask why they did that they simply said because of price -_-. Now like I said I love the computer even more after the upgrade but am a little upset with ibuypower for being so dang cheap.

I have put this desktop through its paces. Extreme graphics capabilities. Highest graphic settings I could use on a number of games can not lag this cpu out. With high speed internet you'll never degrade your frame rate. Ive tried everything possible to lag this computer out or heat it up and all my attempts thus far have failed. Very very good computer.

I was originally looking for a laptop when I found this desktop. Once I got this desktop home and finished the short update routine and downloading my software I was in awe with the performance of this beast! I would definitely recommend this model and later versions for anyone looking to purchase a gaming PC.

Great PC... Problem with Win10 Disc/Key/Activation

Great PC... Problem with Win10 Disc/Key/Activation... The disc is Win10 Professional, PC came with Win10 Home installed with what seems to be maybe the Win10 Pro key entered on the OS. The Win10 Home key on back of the PC label was new but activation is failing when trying to use it on the Win10 Home OS installed & the OS is prompting for Activation.... very odd. I will be calling iBUYPOWER asap about this. Other than that, the PC plays every game so far on Ultra settings with no issues. Liquid cooled CPU & sweet lighting options!

I have been building my own gaming rigs for over 15 years...well decided to go with a consumer machine. The good...Mother Board and processor handle everything well. The GTX 1080 handles the best they have to throw at it. I have added an additional 16GB of RAM..a CD DVD rom (external) and an additional SSD. Water cooled CPU runs cool and smooth. The GPU reaches 80-82 C ..but is rated to achieve 90 C, so no problems there...I might add a Liquid Cooler for the GPU.
In a nut shell, very happy with the IBUYPOWER rig.

I've had this for about a year now and it's a near perfect gaming computer, and for any needs you want. It's big, but I've never had any cooling issues and I can play games at their highest video levels with no lag or issues. Value for what you get in this computer compared to other gaming machines is unmatched.

This is great top end minimum computer. It is enough of everything good and skips the expensive premium options such as m.2 drive or 32g memory etc. Things you do not actually need in most cases. I feel like the cooling needs a little improvement thus the 4. Also, this style of case needs a solution for the heavy big video card...it sags a little from its own weight which caused my fans to occasionally make a little noise. I had a small black plastic rod laying around which I cut to length to prop up the sagging end.

This desktop is absolutely fantastic. It comes with top of the line hardware, and runs flawlessly. It can run anything I throw at it at 1440p on maximum settings with no problem whatsoever. It's liquid cooled, so it doesn't get hot, even when overclocked! This was worth every penny spent. Well done, Best Buy and IBuyPower!

First I am writing this after owning it for 1 day but so far this thing is amazing. I am coming from a MSI laptop with a GTX970 and this thing blows it out the water. With my laptop playing PUBG I would get 30-40 FPS and have lag like crazy. With this beast i get 140+ FPS. I love it setup was nothing and so far so good.

My old 6 year old PC died from overheating. Was in a pinch and could not afford the time to order parts for a DYI system for current specs. Went to Best Buy in hopes of some sort of machine close to a DYI. iBuyPower brand hit all the right marks for what I was looking for. Odds are the parts inside where nearly close to what I would have ordered online but could not wait for the shipping. The extra premium cost over buying a unit like this is easily forgiven since I did not have the hassle or the time to build the new machine personally.
After using the machine for awhile I have become slightly disappointing in certain things, which made me not give a prefect score for the unit. First, yes the setup was easy and quick, however I became very confused when all the extra software and drivers where on DVDs but the machine has not DVD-Rom drive or anyway of installing the included software. Are they needed to run the machine, I have no clue, I do not know whats on some of them. Video drivers was able to easily download.
The included WiFi USB adapter was attached internally in the case, which was getting very poor single. Had to remove it and place it on the outside in one of the USB ports. Another minor issue I ran into was how the case has the power buttons on the top and is flush. This is only an issue since time to time my cat will try to jump on the top and turn off my computer. Finally, I went to restore my old hard on the the included HDD to store my collection of MP3s, word and excel document for work only to find out it was not formatted during setup. WIndows 10 did see the drive, I had to take the time, be it a few mins, to setup the drive, and assign a drive letter and format it.
I would not recommend this computer to someone who knows nothing about PCs or how to DYI fix issues. For thew value and performance, if you can not afford the time to wait for shipping similar components and do not have the time in your life to put the components together iBuyPower is a good machine for you.

I needed something with lotsa RAM & memory & punch and think I'v e found it. I was initially a little put off by the tag "GAMING" as that's not my thing. Law practice is and I crunch a lotta data. This worked out great and the only drawback is my teenage sons think they need one for their gaming. Alas.

Best Option at Best Buy for 1080 GTX Gaming PC

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
One major thing to take in consideration when buying a PC with awesome specs is, "What company parts did they use?" That's the thing with these things; you don't know what company parts they use for the build.
I'm happy to say this model I received had what I was looking for. MSI Z270 Pro Mate MoBo, MSI 1080 GTX Armor OC, and a surprise wireless USB inside the case (they ran a USB wire through and connected a USB WiFi, and surprisingly it has a strong signal). For the price, you would not be able to build one cheaper with the same parts (you would have to wait for all the parts to be discounted to even get close and time is money). I had doubts with iBuyPower truth to be told but I found out later that they test their parts before they use them. If you Google the company, it'll be mixed reviews.
My advice is make sure the version you get has a great MoBo and Video Card (Asus/MSI/etc.). Those are the most important parts. It's hard to tell what PSU it uses but it should be a good one since it supports SLI and that needs a lot power.

This computer has super fast startup time. Runs my Oculus wonderfully. Runs apps and games smoothly. My only complaints are not enough usb ports and if you open more than 1 or 2 windows or apps it freezes up so its not great for multi tasking. This has built in wi-fi so thats a plus if you cant run an Ethernet cable. Also you will need an external Dvd player and card reader if you use it for more than gaming or to use the reinstall disc that comes with it.

I have had this computer for a while now, and it has performed better than I could have ever expected. Its lightning fast and never crashes. The only downside is there is no bluetooth. Otherwise its probably my favorite computer I have ever owned.
