The PSU is NOT good enough for the CPU or GPU. Everything ran fine at first (just youtube browsing and VERY basic games). Then i went to install Apex Legends, the game installed fine and when i went to run the game my computer immediately shut off. I tried all the troubleshoot options the internet and iBuyPower suggested (which they are easily reachable during their store hours). I tried it with Rust as well and had the same issue. The final solution i came to is either the PSU was just not working properly or it just couldn't handle the temps. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D + AMD Radeon RX 9070XT 16GB are both great, just the PSU being basically the weakest part of the machine kind of ruined it. Spending just barely more and i'm sure they could have gotten the perfect performance out of this could be monster.

The PC works fantastically. Easily setup and runs all the games and operations smoothly. The pc itself makes little to no noise when playing intensive games which is a plus

Solid PC, runs fast and cool. Had some driver issues that I had to clean up with DDU, but after that she screams. Pick it up on sale and you won’t be disappointed.

bought this in September of this year. Its solid for what it is. No issues thus far.
I do plan on upgrading / switching to a better PSU at some point.
I was going to upgrade the ram to either 6000/6400MHz and go from 32gb to 64GB. But with the ram at insane prices today and over the last month or so... I stick with 32GB at 5200MHz. its good as is, I just wanted something beefier.
For the build and gaming @ 3440x1440. It'll be plenty good for some time. its a solid daily driver pc no heavy editing and such and a rock solid gaming pc.
A really good prebuilt for the price.

I bought this PC because i gave my nephew my other computer. I didn't have any intentions of replacing my computer, but his computer was terrible. I've always built my own computers, but piecing a computer similar to this one it would have been 400 to 500 more. Since getting the computer no issues at all. Im very happy with the purchase. My first prebuilt no regrets. Great build quality. The only issue i had is the ram included isn't 6000mhz.

Imma put it as simple as this 150+ fps on fivem, 1000+ fps on creative Fortnite 240 - 600+ regular, rainbow 6 siege 480+. It definitely is worth it if you like comp gaming. The only problem I’m having is with the amd app it makes certain games lag so I wouldn’t recommend it if you see that problem happening for you

MSI Hardware, AMD Architecture, far under what I could build for. I haven't bought a prebuilt in over 10 years. It just didn't make sense...until this PC came along and suddenly it did. Their choices of hardware were very competitive, the X670E Motherboard, 32GB of DDR5 Ram (I think 5000MHz), the AMD 9070XT? All good stuff. I not only game, but I do complex data analyses using a variety of programs, which for one reason or another, rely heavily on L3 Cache. The 9800X3D processor has the most L3 Cache on the current market in my price rice, so this just made sense. Data imputation methods using R that used to take 10 minutes are done in a fraction of the time. Games that my older AMD build managed, but with difficulty, are a breeze. FPS, RTS, RPG, Sim Racing, Mil-Sims --- all well within the capabilities of this PC.
Strongly recommend for the gamer/workstation folks looking for a high-performer PC with an excellent level of performance per dollar spent.

Price wise the pc is great. Upgraded from a 3070 and an i9. Seen complaints regarding the PSU which may need upgraded if you’re over clocking or running above 1440. As someone who just plays in 1080p and prioritizes frames it’s fantastic the integrated graphics in the CPU is awesome cause you can prioritize other task to utilize this and the GPU to run the more graphic intensive task.
Pros -
For a prebuilt solid performance great CPU/GPU pair
Got it on sale for the price it was good
Cons - one m.2 slot GPU is blocking the other
If planning on upgrading PSU upgrade would likely be needed

Before this beast landed on my desk, I was running with a 3060 + I7-13700, struggling to play games like mhwilds at LOW settings. As a direct comparison this pc booted the same game in ultra by default, and it runs BEAUTIFULLY in even the most graphically intense environments. (No frame drops!)
If you have no idea what you're doing, but you want to start gaming at 1440p with no extra steps other than buying a monitor, this is for you.

It works, no question about it. One month in and no issue with the computer itself. If it shots itself 4 months from now I’ll let y’all know. Giving it 4.5 out of 5 because it has windows 11 and that shiii is beyond

Plays all the newest games at the highest settings, quick load times, lots of storage. I did have to return it and get a replacement within 2 weeks of owning it due to a part malfunctioning but other than that it’s been well worth the money

Powerful PC for a good price. Its a bit bigger than I like, but Im sacraficing space for performance. Its nice to be able to play all my titles at max settings without so much as a hiccup. Unit did need a BIOS update to fix some GPU issues but it was easy to do.
