Find any other prebuilt brand for the love of god.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I decided to pick this up on a deal for black friday, I previously built all my own pcs before this, and figured prebuilts have improved since the past, and unfortunately I was wrong. It is as slow and stutters more than my old build which had a Gtx 1070, Ryzen 2700x, and 16 gb of ddr4 ram. This pc consistently gets to hot, I went into the bios to increase the fan curve to be more aggressive, and set my rgb lighting to change from white and fade to red when hot, It is constantly red with HWMonitor to prove it. It stutters severely in games, My older pc ran CS2 far smoother to this one and with the specs of this new PC it just doesnt make sense to me. I figured even the NVMe drive would add a speed boost but it really didnt make a difference. My biggest gripe above all for this sad excuse of a pc, is the power button doesnt even work. I have tried everything to make it function, It only works to shut the pc off, but I cannot turn it back on. I have been manually starting it with the power switch on the power supply. Please stay aware from iBuyJunk.

Posted .Hello there. Sorry to hear of the PC issue you're experiencing. Although rare, computer components do fail from time to time, even despite our components' stress testing. Thankfully, you're still covered within the manufacturer warranty. If troubleshooting does indicate RAM (Memory) as the issue, you can request an Advanced RMA to save time and get a fix sooner.

So so
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent. Fan stopped working after a few days and for some reason when I play a game and try and talk via discord the sound is awful. Good for playing solo games though

Bluetooth defect
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The PC is great, but it has a Bluetooth defect where it cannot detect any devices. Best Buy doesn't know how to fix it and won't help unless you pay for their premium plan which is almost $200 extra so... I wouldn't buy from here

Posted .Hello there! While an external USB add-on might provide better Wi-Fi or BlueTooth signals, our computers include antennae accessories that need to be screwed into the I/O ports on the back for signal.

Faulty RAM
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ram in my system came faulty. Not once did I boot the system and it came on normally. I had to uninstall and reinstall the ram each time just to fully turn it on, and eventually, it would never fully boot. I got power to my system, but the ram wouldn’t work.

So far its a clunker
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had this pc for a few days now and have gone through all of the steps to optimize its performance and so far, its a clunker. I play Crusader Kings 3 which is not a resource intensive game compared to most but this computer is glitchty, freezes during game play, crashes, loses lots of supposedly saved data, etc. For $1000, you’d think it would be able to handle a game like this. Honestly pretty annoyed

Don’t Buy this one! Buyer beware.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item we had for not even a week and it broke. We only used it for regular searching and then my husband ran one game on it (that is not a demanding game). It shut off and wouldn’t turn back on. It’s a crying shame. Thankfully the Best Buy team was able to assist us in getting a different one that was better recommended but 10/10 DONT BUY THIS GARBAGE.

Horrible gaming pc
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible pc! Worked for a month and now crashes every-time my son launches a game. Unable to return due to 15 day return window even though it was a Christmas gift! Geek squad and Epic games unable to help us solve the problem. We were told to contact ibuypower directly and ask about their 1 year warranty. Waiting on a call back. What a giant waste of time, energy, and money!
