I mean it runs pretty smoothly it’s good for a starter PC for gaming but what I seen is you could actually add more stuff into it which means more parts. if you are using HDIM Cable do not put it in the HDIM port you should put it in the graphics card which is just below. One thing I’m still trying to figure out is what are the CDs that come with it because there’s no CD ports. Another thing is that it comes with a mouse and keyboard so you won’t have to buy one which is very convenient Sure it will take time for it to load but that’s just part of the start up. And if anyone knows how I could change the color inside to one exact color please let me know thanks.

About 1 month ago, I bought this iBuyPower Gaming Desktop PC (model: ARC148A) It was so easy to set up and only took about 15 minutes. It runs much faster than I expected. I have not experienced any issues and have enjoyed playing several games on it. The lights are a cool and fun feature. I switched from gaming on my XBox and am satisfied with my choice. I use the Zeus E2 mouse, but not the keyboard that was included. I wish that it included a monitor, but it did not. The price was higher than I would have liked to pay, so I hope that it is built to last. Also, for anyone wondering, it does not include a CD/DVD drive. My 13 year old son is completely obsessed with it. I definitely recommend this pc to anyone looking for a great starter pc.

Honestly the best gaming P.C. on a budget! I love that we can upgrade it as needed and runs all my games on max settings without any hitches. A total dream for someone who is starting out!

Great PC. Was sick of having to design and edit photos on our small 18" laptop. Started looking into desktop PC and discovered these while talking with the rep at Best Buy Mankato. It's been able to handle photo editing, web design and audio streaming without missing a beat. I switch tabs faster than a Hollywood wedding. The graphics cards packs a great punch with the monitors we purchased. Would recommend to anyone wanting a little more power.

I got a prebuilt pc made by iBUYPOWER off the Best Buy website. I'm very pleased with it, my only issue is when i first got it. It would turn on but wouldn't connect to a monitor. Luckily that issue was resolved quickly and it works perfectly fine for what I want it to.

It is hard to find computers right now with good graphics cards unless you want to spend a boatload of money. Got this ibuypower PC from Best Buy and it is a great for the price. Under 700 for a PC that will play most games well. Very happy.

Just bought a pc for the first time. I decided to go with ibuypower because it was the best cheapest prebuild for a starter. I love how I can modify it later. Slight design and runs great, highly recommend for a starter.

I can’t keep my daughter off of it. What started out as a simple, starter gaming system has now become her daily PC for virtual learning and after school her gaming haven. The system is fast and quiet. It’s perfect!
