    I was thinking I would either upgrade my old computer or get a new one for gaming. The old one played the games would hang a little during play. I thought about if for a while then saw this one and said what the heck. I'm really glad I got it! Thing runs all my games with no issues at max settings. I have had it for over a week now even though it says I got it 2 days ago. I purchased it on 2/4/20 then it went on sale the next week so I went in and BestBuy gave me the difference ( $200.00 ) cool.

    I got this for my son and he loves it. I have not had to pay to fix anything and that’s a win. It’s loaded with enough horsepower to get the job done. My kid likes all the colorful lights as well...and so do I! They didn’t have this stuff when I was a kid. Pretty cool tech.

    Recently purchased this gaming PC. It has been running super smooth with no issues. The third fan light is not coming on, but the fan is on. I am assuming its just a cable for the lighting that came loose. Might try to fix it, if not, not a big deal, its just lights. Overall super satisfied with this purchase.

    Was very indecisive about what computer to get as my first; after plenty of research, and having it for about a week, i can say that i made a GREAT investment. Even though I'm new and haven't put in a lot of hours, I'm very satisfied with the product and look forward to all the hours I will log on this best. Kevin

    Decent computer not perfect though

    Overall the computer runs great. Just make sure when you get it everything is plugged in cause it wasn't for me, non of the computers actual fans were even plugged in. Oh and look into upgrading the CPU cooler cause the one that comes with it is very cheap and barely cools. Because even though it's a $1200 system they couldn't be bothered having a decent cooler in it. Which for those who don't know that if you plan on spending long periods of time with high end gaming that the heat will drastically lower the life span of the parts requiring you to upgrade a whole lot sooner. I could deal with the fans not being plugged in, but for some people they'd just assume is broken, but what I can't stand is them selling it as a high end gaming computer, but completely ignoring the fact that the CPU has to be properly cooled. Which is just their way of selling you a product that will fail a whole lot sooner. So I can't in good conscience recommend the system for the price when you have to go out and spend more money to upgrade a part that should have been when they assembled it.

    Good for the money

    TL;DR Good for the money, should have just waited and built a new one. Bought a computer thinking that it was great for the money. I had been planning on building another one within the year, and everything that came in it spec wise was right around the route i planned on going. It is a good computer for the money. It ran well out of the box, it looked nice, and it cools pretty well. But then i started noticing the issues. So to start off with, i had to tweak way too many setting right off the bat. My RAM and SWAP usage were through the roof for no reason whatsoever. I could be on the desktop with no programs open and RAM would be at 30% and SWAP was 45-50%. Cool. Went in, messed around and got it to a range i was comfortable with. Then once i opened a program it would jump right back up to the same percentages again. Ended up getting better RAM (and going from 26gb to 32gb) and it showed monumental improvement. For a month. Not long after that, i am gaming and got the blue screen of death. Did some research, overclocked my RAM, now its fine. Not a huge deal, but absolutely should not have had to do all that. Also will be investing in a new cooler soon. It comes with a standard cooler similar to the OEM Intel ones. This thing is terrible. Had no issues with the stock cooler on my previous build and this one sounds like a turbine starting up just doing simple tasks.

    I use my computer for Game Development and Video Game Streaming and it works great! I haven’t had any issues. The fans are not loud and it handles all the craziness that comes with streaming. I use WiFi for internet and I have no issues there either. I would highly recommend this build to someone!

    This desktop was easy to set up and is exactly as advertised. One little glitch is that I had to google to find out why it would not connect to our router. All I had to do was attach the small antennae to the tower, but the instructions did not outline that step. Very happy with my purchase!

    Bought this for my son last Christmas and he's told me that it's one of the best PC's he's ever got. It was a great upgrade from his last one. He's told me it has great graphics and boots up really fast and works great. I definitely recommend if your looking for great graphics and speed.

    Super Fast Processor/Video Card

    I'm not a gamer; I bought this to run ARC/GIS models for school. I'm not much of a tech person, so I relied on the advice of a friend, who advised me to "buy up" on the processor and video card so that the machine is still workable in 5-7 years. The advancement in speed from an i-3 processor to this one is AMAZING. Everything "runs" quicker/loads quicker/starts quicker. The set-up process was a snap; easy to unpack. Pros: Super fast start up. Very quiet fans; almost unnoticeable. Loads of memory space. Plenty of USB ports. Strong processor and video card combination. Cons: While I agree the lights can be entertaining, I would have preferred that money go towards a better processor and/or video card. I don't need my computer to look a certain way; I want it to be the "best" machine possible for the amount of money I spend. In my opinion, the lights are completely unnecessary. Having said that, I would definitely recommend this machine. Happy with my purchase, and I hope it lasts for a long time.

    So far my experience with this computer has be phenomenal. I was looking for a decent computer as i just switched from console gaming to computer gaming and couldn't be happier. I shopped around quite a bit for computers in this price range and this one was leaps and bounds above the rest.

    Works great so far - make sure you put in the Wifi antenna in else you won't get reception. The only thing that I am not impressed by so far is the USB ports - I don't know they are powered properly - doesn't work with some of my external drives - but I haven't investigated it further yet.

    The computer was great and easy to set up. The only issue was the sales people at Best Buy told us the needed the wrong hardware to set up 2 monitors so we had to return to the store and get the correct adapter instead of a splitter. The computer works great and now the 2 monitors are working.

    Got a great deal on this, better than building myself. I am very happy with it. Do make sure to tighten connections before powering as the Wi-Fi antennas had trouble screwing on because it kept spinning and one of the fans was unplugged completely. Not a big deal though, just a heads up!

    Replaced a 9-year-old pc with this for work and gaming. Shipped in 2 days. Both functions have been working exceptionally well for the 1-2 weeks that I've had it. Threw in a few extra hard drives in a matter of minutes with no problem. So far, great computer and experience.

    I purchased this PC because my 9 year old Phenom built pc was not handling Adobe products with ease. This IBuypower pc is awesome. This is the first time I bought a pc instead of building my own. I did not have time to build a new one so I chose this PC. Great decision. Great PC!!

    I have had this computer for two months now and this computer is great! I needed a computer that did not take forever to start up and also will handle multiple processes at the same time, it does both of those things! I am glad I invested in a machine that is very efficient!
