This desktop is ideal for any type of game you might want to play, and those who may be turned off by the high price tag, understand that with all the parts it comes with, its easily worth the price, on top of the custom computer tower and LED options. The customization is fantastic and my son loves how the LEDS match the LEDS in his room already! Great product and super satisfied!

I received this as a birthday gift to replace a 10 year-old system. All I can say is WOW!! Blazing fast, super quiet and just a great system all around! Capable of running my most demanding games at max resolution without a stutter. The only gigs I can give are for the included mouse and keyboard. They are functional but cheap. They'll serve until you can get something better.

Normally I order online and have my gaming pc built the way I want. But I didn't want to wait 3 weeks for delivery and this system had more power with GPU and CPU for the money so I gave it a try. It was built very nice. Wiring done very well and is screaming fast so far. Mine came with ASUS GPU And AS Rock Motherboard.

Nice Computer

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I went to the local Best Buy looking for another brand of Computer. Sadly, that type of PC wasn't available in the store. The sales person pointed out the Ibuypower trace 941. It looked like a decent computer and at a decent price. So I purchased it and took it home.
Unboxing was painless, and the instructions were clear. Remove glass cover, remove foam block, check that nothing became loose during shipping. Everything was nice and tight.
Powered it on and was up and running in under an hour. The LED light effects are nice. This is my first Ibuypower purchase, and so far I am liking it.
A side note: This computer doesn't come with a DVD/CD drive. But they enclosed in the box a couple of cd/DVDs that had backup software on them. I would have thought they'd have that media on a USB stick vs a disk for a diskless PC.
But that is a minor thing, and I'm not taking away points.
Also, it's the first PC that I have owned that has been able to run World of Warcraft at 100FPS.

Everything you want from a gaming PC

This pre-built computer comes with water cooling, an amazing CPU and of course the GTX 1080. It's crazy how fast you can install everything and get to play. It's really silent, the lights display is also really neat. It comes with mouse and keyboard so it's a great PC for beginners.

Almost Flawless

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Was lucky to be able to pick this up at a nearby BB Store (one less chance for delivery damage). Got it home, unpacked, removed glass panel and shipping foam from inside the case. No loose or damaged components. Fired it up with an Ethernet connection to install all Windows updates, Installed the 2 WiFi antennas, moved to my gaming room and proceeded to reload some Steam games, and even downloaded Far Cry 4 over wireless -- this box has no trouble with 100+FPS in FC4 with Ultra Settings @ 1080p. Boots nice and fast, too with the WD Green SSD. CPU running 50C max so far, water cooling works great. The MSI GTX1080 was running a little warm (to touch), but I was able to download the MSI Afterburner app from their website - a very good utility - I was able to raise the fan speed profile to drop the GPU temp from 85C to 75C. Since I keep the house pretty cool in the winter, I know that things were going to run warmer getting into summer, so I bought a nice 4-wire 120mm Case fan and installed it in the middle spot (of 3!) in the front panel so it would blow air over the graphics card. (there is a spare 4-wire fan connector on the AS Rock Motherboard).
I repeat - this is a nice machine, with NO BLOATWARE, and ran flawlessly out of the box - well worth the price.
Some minor issues: The CPU and case fans are only 3-wire, so their speeds can't be controlled by the BIOS fan profile utility - that said, they run VERY QUIETLY, so not a big deal. I was able to control the speed of the 120mm 4-wire case fan that I added, so I know the BIOS feature is working.
The included keyboard isn't too good - the larger keys will bind if you hit them off-center; IBP should just not bother to put their lighted logo on such a keyboard - it doesn't jibe with the otherwise well-constructed case. I didn't try the mouse at all - I prefer wireless for gaming.
Oh, and the lighting of the case is a nice touch - you can turn it down to a nice steady glow, or pick several colors/fade/flash sequences.

Trace 941 an awesome Desktop at a Great Price
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Trace 941 is a gaming laptop that all gamers are looking for when it comes to looking for that next edge.
With the options of upgrading the Nvidia video cards 1050 - 1080 it gives even the pickiest of gamers another layer of comfortable adjustments.
Upgrading anything in the tower is very easy.
In performance there is no slowing down with this beast.
I can run multiple programs at the same time still doesn't slow down the processors at all, I could stream a video, play a game such as Counter Strike Global Offensive, and be on social media and still keep adding more running programs and its performance speed is never slowing.
I really appreciate having a cooling system that helps keep my Trace 941 from overheating.
In all this is an awesome gaming desktop which is totally worth it.

I was a little hesitant to purchase a pre-built PC from a retailer, however this was the best bang for your buck. I have max FPS on most games, running on high graphics. Perfect purchase and i'm glad I did it!

Great for Revit

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
My work system died on Friday afternoon and I was under a tight schedule so I needed to obtain a system off the shelf over the weekend that met the minimum requirements for Revit. Found this at a local Best Buy and have been extremely pleased with it so far (3 months in). It has handled Revit with no issues at all. Even renders fairly quick for not being a super high-end Xeon machine. Have only done minor gaming with it so far, but it seems to handle the games I have run on it with no issue typically at max settings. Set-up was very easy out of the box. I did find it humorous that a device with no disc drives came with back-up discs.

Before I bought this product, I did my fair share of research to make sure I bought something that would successfully run all of my rendering software in architecture school, and this computer does not disappoint. It has the capability to run all of my large programs at once without a problem. The liquid cooling is nice because you can barely hear the computer. I'm so glad I was able to find this, it has saved me so much time and frustration with a more than fair price tag for its specs. I would definitely recommend this computer to any architecture students/professionals looking for a fast, efficient drafting and rendering experience.

Amazing Computer for Gaming and Developing!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This is honestly one of the best gaming computers I've purchased in my life. It runs fast runs every game on Ultra setting and still runs fine and you can multitask quite easily on. Very useful for developing games and playing games. I recommend this so many people who are looking and thinking of purchasing this computer. It's cheap and easy to set up. The major tip if your gonna game does not put steam on your C Drive by accident. Accidentally did that and my computer always has 50 GB Left on my SSD Haha. Amazing computer and will be definitely always buying from iBUYPOWER

Ibuypower will actually pay you $10 to write a good review. I'm not taking a screenshot of this review and going through the trouble for $10. This pc impresses everyone that sees it. Hardly any bloatware. Just Microsoft games like candy crush and stuff you can get rid of in an instant. The i7-8700k is a beast of a processor. The actual tower itself could have been designed better. It's bulky and when you look inside it looks empty. The lights are cheap. The system has played any game I've tried in 1920×1080 on highest graphic setting with 0 lag or delay.

I bought this computer after my last one died and I didn’t want to order parts because it is expensive to ship to Hawaii.
This computer boots up fast, runs smooth, and met all of my needs. This price isn’t bad considering it would cost me just about the same to make it myself after paying for shipping of parts.
The computer runs quiet and the temps are average, I have mine lifted off the ground to help circulate the air around it. You can also go into the bios and change the processor speed with a few clicks if you want to overclock it.

A Beast

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I had a very outdated pc for a while that i used to edit, play games, and stream. Lets just say that it was a very hard time and would constantly freeze up. This badboy however can handle anything. I can actually view my footage in real time and rendering isn't that hard. I can play games like Rainbow Six: Siege at max everything and get 130fps. And to top it all off it can handle any game I want to stream. I would fully recommend this for anyone who wants to get into pc gaming, editing, or streaming.
