||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'll post a review after I can actually get this thing running. I just picked it up yesterday and upon opening it all up, I have not seen any power cable that plugs into the Power Supply. I double checked the box which it came and even looked inside the chassis (both panels) and didn't find one. Was it suppose to be included? The only power cable I have is for the monitor which I purchased separately, obviously.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend Worked for a few hours and then...
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have purchased many pre-built PCs and laptops over the years and this was the worse experience ever. Seeing that Best Buy has been carrying this brand for a while...I figured it has to be a reputable company despite not being one of the big boys like HP, Dell, Alienware, Asus, etc. After spending hours (nearly all day tbh) installing Windows updates, video editing software and several other programs and then configuring everything...I left the PC on and went to the gym. When I came home...the PC was not running but I noticed the blinking power button on top and assumed that it went into sleep mode. So, I moved the mouse to try and wake it up but nothing! I held down the power button to force it to fully shut down which it did. Then, hit the power button again to boot it back up and all it did was start flashing the RGB lights in a glitching type of pattern but would not boot back up into Windows. Ok...I've seen this before and the solution often is to remove all connected USB devices, except the keyboard and mouse. Once I did that...it appeared to be booting up but nope...would not load Windows. I then thought something may be loose inside the machine, so I powered it off again and took the side glass cover off and checked for any loose wires, etc. I didn't see anything loose or disconnected, so I put the side back on and then hit the power button again and this time...it booted up to the Windows login. But I wanted to make sure it was good to go, to instead of logging into Windows...I clicked on the power off button on the Windows login screen (not the physical power button on the PC). Well, my monitor turned off but the PC would not shut down! I tried forcing a shut down again by holding the power button down but now...it would not shut down at all! I had to go behind the PC where on the bottom is the main power switch which I had to flip to finally turn it off! At that point, since I literally just purchased the PC one day ago, packed this piece of crap up and back to Best Buy it went! Will NEVER consider purchasing this brand again and will stick to my own custom built PC or if pre-built...a well-known and reputable brand. Sorry iBuyPower...I gave you a shot and you blew it!

No, I would not recommend this to a friend Warning for any first time, computer buyers
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was the first computer I ever bought on my own and it shows. Ever since I bought this computer, I’ve had nothing but issues and I could not recommend it less to anybody trying to get into computer gaming for the first time. It ran fine the first two months And then after that, it has been nothing but needing a fresh installation of windows and sending it back to the manufacturer for them to send it back and it still be completely unusable. I recommend buying from any other manufacturer, but I buy power has completely lost any business from me in the future
No, I would not recommend this to a friendLooks cool but didn’t work.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.PC kept crashing first day. It was my son’s only Christmas gift this year. I waited on hold with tech support for 1.5 hrs. Advised the RAM is probably bad. Will be returning the product to the store. I am very disappointed and nervous about repurchasing this product.
