    The computer would not work at first - saw a loose graphics card cable, so plugged it in., Then the computer worked intermittently. Spent a full day working with it, then gave up. I'm a computer tech since 1990 so i know what I'm doing. To top it off, I had to drive 90 miles to closest Best Buy just to get it, then back to return it. iBuyPower is not reliable from research.

    This computer was not functional. It was obvious it had been previously opened and returned to the store as all packing material was missing. Must have been returned and then sent to ouf again. Day after christmas i had to return to best buy and replace computer. Ended up having to buy one of higher value because there were no other models left. Causing me to spend 600 additional dollars.

    Great PC for Entry to Mid Level Gaming

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We bought the Slate MR tower for my 8 year old as an entry gaming PC and could not have been happier. We were able to take advantage of the better pricing during Black Friday. Like most kids his age most of what he is playing is Roblox and Fortnite. This PC runs those with EASE. He is also able to play Elder Scrolls Online on Ultra settings. The setup for this PC was very simple. I would highly recommend this PC to anyone looking to get into PC gaming or upgrade their outdated system on the cheap. The base specs are really great for even a mid tier gaming PC.

    Ive had this pc for 4 years now

    I love it. The first 2 week i had it i upgraded the ram to 32GB and that got me by for months running Call of Duty at 100 or so FPS. I upgraded the GPU to a 3060 in 22 and its still running beautifully today. I can run COD at 230FPS and Warzone at like 130-150. Which works just fine for my 144hz monitor.

    Good, but needs an upgrade soon.

    I just picked this up today from my local best buy. They likely won't make this a verified purchase because I bought it as best buy but here we go. It's a good starter computer, if you know what you're doing. I'm continuing to scratch my head over how this thing works. First off... You CANNOT run Microsoft Flight Sim on this. It seems like it may take up to 2 weeks to complete installation. Low end titles like Valorant and Fortnite work great. I easily got 185 FPS in Fortnite and 200 in Valorant. Whether or not it works for you is difficult to predict. I have heard SEVERAL negative things about this computer. Unfortunately, you are going to need to spend additional money to make this a good PC. It is in desperate need for new RAM. This RAM will literally last you a month at most. Other then that, fans seem okay. They are a little loud but nothing I cannot handle. GPU may need an upgrade in the near future. But all in all, spend the extra 200 dollars to upgrade this thing. Buy a 6600 XT if you can. This thing is fine but needs an upgrade soon. Enjoy.
