I have had this PC for a couple months now and i have not been disappointed. It is quite powerful, i usually never run games in max settings but i have tested it out on some graphically demanding games just to see how this pc would handle it. On ultimate settings i get some Coil whine but that is almost to be expected, everything runs smoother than silk. Satisfied with the temperatures, even under a heavy load. The only thing i have changed so far was replacing the top 2 case fans with argb, same with the Ram. Added a pointless graphics card bracket just for some color :) Overall this is the best purchase i have made in a while.

So far this thing has been incredible!!! I really out it to the test these past few hours and it has handles everything I've thrown at it with perfection. When the package arrived I opened it up and carefully inspected every single part of this, because some of the negative reviews for this desktop were mentioning bad build quality, broken or damaged parts, etc.
Luckily, I didn't have to deal with any of that. I played Red Dead Redemption 2 with ultra/ high settings on and it handled the game rather well, 60 fps about 95 percent of the time! This thing is a beast. It handles Visual Studio very well and my only thing is I will probably add more storage and RAM later in the future. Other than that, I am 100 percent satisfied!!

Here are the specs/components that came with mine.
CPU: Intel Core i9-10900K
GPU: Nvidia RTX 2070S (Super) - Gigabyte
SSD: WDC WDS100T2G0A-00JH30 1TB - Western Digital Green
RAM: GD2.1542WS.003 2x8GB -ZADAK
MBD: MSI Z490-A PRO (MS-7C75)
The main components are quality. The RAM? Well, I've never heard of ZADAK before and didn't find much on it online. Nevertheless, I plan on getting 32GB RGB memory modules and an EVO Plus M.2 drive to round out this masterpiece. Even as is, this PC has amazing performance out of the box. Adding those two upgrades is just my OCD and ADHD kicking in.
I bought this several weeks ago well before Labor Day and before Nvidia announced the upcoming 3000 series. BestBuy had this as one of the “Deal of the Day” offers and I made the impulse buy around 7AM. I received it a few days later and then watched it sit on my table for the next two weeks. Honestly, I had immediate buyers remorse once I purchased it. I spent those two weeks reading all the articles online, all the YouTube videos, and all the benchmarks one could spend on the 10900K and the 2070 super. I even read all the AMD’ers destroy this on SlickDeals because of the CPU. After Nvidia made their announcement for the 3000 series, people went to town on how the 2070 super makes this a bad deal.
It wasn’t until I saw on Nvidia’s own website posting their own metrics of the 3000 series paired with?...you guessed it, a 10900K. Even with this CPU supporting PCIE 3 and the upcoming GPUs being on PCIE 4, Nvidia made a marketing genius move by posting benchmarks with Intel’s crown jewel. Once I saw this, my buyers remorse went away and I finally opened the box. Additionally, Nvidia took a step further and claimed their 3000 series won't even need PCIE 4.
After playing with this for several hours and days, I came upon this realization. You are getting "The top overall CPU for gaming" at this moment. And a top 5 or better in all other benchmark categories. Even with upcoming AMD and Intel next gen CPUs, this CPU will still be in the top 10. In fact, it will take three or four more AMD and Intel generations from bumping this one out of the top 25. You're also getting an excellent Gigabyte 2070 Super GPU that’s already better than the upcoming XBox Series S, an MSI mobo with 2 NVMe slots, a 650 watt PSU, an excellent looking case, a liquid cooler, sweet RGB lighting, NO bloatware, AND it's hands-down the quietest PC I’ve ever heard with so much raw power.
Long story short, I haven’t bought a pre-built PC since the late 90s. Opting to build instead because it’s somehow cheaper...supposedly. My last build was 2013 with just two GPU upgrades. Seeing this iBuyPower on-sale just somehow told me to make this purchase. The specs alone would have one hard pressed to build it for less. And I haven't seen a pre-build deal or even individual parts that matches the specs on this yet at this price. I'm hoping to hang on to this beauty for another 7 years with a couple of GPU upgrades as well.
PS
I do agree with the paid critics out there that the specs on this are for the "extreme performance gamers" and "power users" out there. The majority of users could get away with a lesser a PC for a few hundred dollars cheaper. So if you're not in one of those two aforementioned categories, then this is really a novelty to have. That's where I find myself...and there's nothing wrong with that :) Enjoy!

This is my first Ibuypower PC> came from a Cyberpower pc and I had 2 in the past. I have to say, I'm blown away by the size the price and by the quality of the product. I love the mirror aspect design, the smart RGB lighting, and over-all performance. I have never had an I9 pc or something as small and powerful as this. I am going to school for engineering and I work at home running about 5-8 different program also virtual machines and servers at the same time. I have 2 2k monitors and playing my games at full settings. very much pleased with this machine, better quality and build than Cyberpowe. I have tto say, I thouht I had a ARGB issue but it turns out something was unplugged when it came out of the box. just if something is not working (usually rgb); make sure to pull the left side of the casing off and double check. also this is addressable LEDS so please download the software for your correct motherboard. I have the z490 MSI. mysticlight if anyone asks.

I was looking for a new gaming PC as the new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 had just been released. I wanted to buy a new PC in order to be able to play the sim with high to ultra settings. My previous PC was 8 years old and was only able to handle medium to lower setting with the sim. I considered building one myself as I have done in the past, but this iBuyPower PC was on sale and I couldn't build one with the same specs at the time for what I paid for it here. I've owned it for about 4 months and I've been extremely happy with it. I can run pretty much any game at the highest settings and I can run MSFS 2020 at High to Ultra with 50-60 FPS on average depending on where I am. I have since then added 2 more M.2 NVMe drives and another 16GB of RAM. This thing is a beast and I won't need to upgrade anything else for quite sometime.

I bought a gaming PC core i9 nvidia rtx2070 super from iBuyPower ir runs COD soo good. My gaming laptop sound like a turboprop plane and it gives me headache, i dont have this problem anymore. I love this prebuild pc, looks amazing and it have a great layout, easy to upgrade, you dont have to be and expert to open the cpu and install extra ram or storage units, also the covers have thumb screw, so you dont need tools to set it up!

I'm Not much of a gamer, But I can be with this one. My 24 y/o son is into gaming hard. He ordered the same exact set up except from IBUYPOWER site. I told him to look at this one, because mine has a 1tb ssd vs his 500gb, he ordered his a week before me, he just got his, I got mine in 2 days ! Props to BB ! Easily tossed in my 2tb hdd, and another 1 tb ssd. It's clearly faster in every aspect to my Lenovo. And looks cool. I may up it to 64gb of RAM, which'd just be overkill. Certainly no need at the current technology to go to 128gb, But the Mobo will run it. The video card 2070 super is ON POINT. Great price for a quiet, powerhouse of a Cpu rig. Setup was super easy... I'm really liking it...

This is an excellent purchase for the specs that you get! Try and compare this rig to any other prebuilt company's. Its gonna cost 3-400 bucks or more! I have had this almost 2 weeks and just love it! Just be patient on the first day! Make sure that windows does all of its updates before you download your games lol - it will be ugly if you do, just sayin lol. I play mostly COD MW and it is so so smooth! This is a great purchase and a great price for what you are getting!

I built my own PCs for years, but now I just prefer to buy pre-built systems and occasionally add or update a component if I need to. This system was exactly what I needed for my PC gaming needs, and it's been working great for these first three weeks. Some advice for those purchasing: (1) Take note that the graphics card has only one HDMI port and three DVI D ports. Purchase the display cables you need based on this. (2) Don't skip the step for checking connections inside the case before you start using the system (my SATA drive power was disconnected). If you aren't familiar with handling PC hardware, there isn't a guide in the box for how to open both sides of the case (your SATA SSD is on the side opposite the glass) or find which connections to check. (iBUYPOWER may have this on their website, but I didn't check.) For those not comfortable with getting into the PC's guts to check connections, consider adding Geek Squad support or getting a PC-knowledgeable friend to help you with the unboxing and checking when the PC arrives. Once you're set up, I think you'll love it! Note: My images here were taken after I had added a second SATA SSD (blue); the system only comes with one (green).

I usually build my own gaming rigs, but with a family, full time job, and other things, it just wasn't in the cards. I cam across this PC on Best Buy at a stellar price!
Thing came in one business day and was packed great! All wiring was well hid and the computer instantly booted and quick!
This machine is great. Last thing gaming to try is VR and this machine will own VR or anything you throw at it....
Its also upgradable I'd you know what your doing!

I bought this computer 2 years ago. It worked great until the last 6 months as it has started to run real slow and lag essentially. I have replaced the tan and did a full reset, but a friend who works on computers think it might be the cpu. Not sure if these pre-builds are as great. My experience

ello, fellow gamers and tech lovers! I just recently purchased an iBUYPOWER PC gaming machine and let me tell you. This system is a beast! The Intel i9 10900k chip and the RTX 2070 super inside this gorgeous mirror-like pc case are quite stunning! The RGB fans and the water-cool system keeps this beauty cool. All games can be run on high settings with power to spare. This machine has plenty of space for future upgrades if your budget allows you too. I plan to add another internal 1TB SSD and an additional 16gb ram for a total of 32gb. The only reason I need the additional ram is that I like to run virtual machines, which requires more ram depending on the project. I am an IT student. Overall, you cannot go wrong with iBUYPOWER! Other brands charge people and an arm and a leg for this kind of setup. In the end, you are the judge and do what's right! Bring one of these beauties home. You won't regret it. iBUYPOWER + you = Fun

I’m not able to use the USB ports because of the poor quality work that been done on this pc, and I have one fan missing on my water cooling. I have provided pictures to see it.
