Great PC for the money, cool side panel, hot GPU
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Snowblind case is amazing and really cool. Download Wallpaper engine or live wallpaper from Steam to get some cool wall papers to run on it or you have to have a really light back ground wall paper. The PC uses off the shelf components which made it easy to add a 4 TB drive and clone onto a 500 TB SSD. My only gripe (and it is a serious one) is that the 1080 TI seems to be the Armor version from MSI which runs HOT. It gets to 85 degrees under load and seems to have some throttling issues. On a 2100 dollar PC this is a bit disappointing as this card is known to run hot forcing many users to replace the cooler. Overall, it is a good PC for the money (especially with crypto spiking the market), but the GPU temperature under load could be a deal breaker and almost was for me.

This computer has a very nice look to it. It is not advertised much on the Best Buy page but the side glass panel is actually a lcd screen which you can make look like anything you want (like an additional monitor). The setup was easy. Also with a 1080TI and a i7-8700k this will be more than enough to game on the highest settings for most games. Good future proofing as well.

So far everything is awesome. My only complaint is I don't know how to set up the glass LCD display. There is very little about it online or in support. I see nothing about it in any of the docs that came with it. Also the cables that came with it to connect the LCD are too short.

Snowblind 942 Purchase

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I had come to a parting of the ways with Dell Computers. For years I believed they were the premier source for great computers and wonderful customer service. In my opinion, this is no longer the case so I have returned to my original source - Best Buy.
Setting up the system was a bit confusing, perhaps due to the new bells and whistles - but after getting through that it runs very quiet and seems to be faster than anything I've had before.
The lighted PC is interesting though I have not yet figured out how to turn on the light show.

High quality gaming pc

I ordered the iBuypower Snowblind pc hoping for the best and I have not been disappointed. It proves to handle anything that I've thrown at it thus far and has a stunning sleek aesthetic. The only complaint I've had is that the lcd side panel monitor was not already set up with rainmeter software and I cannot use the iBuypower/Intel rainbow ink pattern that was supposed to be standard on the pcs. After an initial struggle I got it working and have beautifully animated backgrounds playing at all times.

Great PC, was exactly what I was looking for. Really easy to setup right out of the box, wireless adapter is working great with a strong connection. Overwatch and Rainbow six siege run great at max settings.

Beast Desktop, Terrible WiFi Adapter

Great price for a 1080ti prebuilt. Runs great but the WiFi Adapter is complete trash. Slower than Tom Brady's 3-cone drill at his combine. Couldn't even pay me to use that adapter. Would suggest switching it out to a tplink archer ac1900 if you going to use WiFi.

I read alot of the reviews and was worried about over heating issues but for the price i decided id buy it and at worst replace the fan with a water cooler, but i have played alot of intensive games for a long time on end and had no heat issues whatsoever. i use speccy to check the temps regularly and never see anything out of the ordinary. The side panel is not only easy to set up but works as a monitor very cool!

I went in looking for a nice pc to play games on and was shown this pc from a few employees and as soon as I saw it I knew that I would love it. It can handle any game on the market. And I love that I can customize the screen on the monitor as well. It is a beautiful pc both inside and out.

Just picked up my third snowblind 942. I bought this for my designer who uses sketch up for 3d modeling. So far, it is working as expected. My only complaint is that the wifi card that it comes with is poopy, very weak on all of the towers.

I bought a Snowblind from the store, but when I brought it home the SSD drive did not work. Had to take it back to the store. Had to have a 2nd unit delivered which worked perfectly. Now that it is working I love it!!
