    Love the PC so far, easy install, great value for the price. Read a couple a reviews stating it needed a CPU fan upgrade and there was one at Best Buy that I picked up for about 50 bucks and it was super easy to install with all the room in the computer. Thats another plus is this computer has a lot of room for upgrades, I would defiantly recommend.

    This machine is everything as advertised. I have 3 monitors hooked up and can play any game out there. With no lagging issues. It’s so good I purchased another for my grandson.

    Great components. Run most games in QHD at max settings (had to turn a couple settings down in Warzone so I could keep my frames up but it'd probably still run at around 60fps with everything maxed). Overall satisfied, but my machine had a few problems out of the box: CPU was overheating consistently on day 1, causing random reboots. I replaced the CPU cooler and it has been fine since, not sure if the original cooler just wasn't mounted correctly or it needed more thermal paste but I opted to just replace it since my friend had a spare. Second, my system is unstable when XMP is enabled even though the manufacturer says XMP shouldn't cause any problems. They offered to replace the RAM but it would cost $50 shipping. At this point I don't notice a performance difference between the stock speed and XMP so it's not worth it to me. I'll just upgrade the RAM if it's an issue later.

    I don't know much in the way of PCs, so I don't know exactly what to compare this to, but the product I received was exactly what I paid for. A high quality and preforming device that met my expectations, it has a cool, sleek design with fancy colors that make it pop, plus a quiet fan that's not too distracting. Honestly, it was a pretty good buy.

    The performance of this machine is great for entry-level and mid-tier gamers. The Geforce RTX 3060 12GB performs well for titles such as Fortnite, GTA, and others. You cannot go wrong with this purchase.

    This pc runs pretty well so far, pretty quiet playing games that my old one sounded close to a ps4, looks nice, and the system is decently priced. Only problem I had with it was that it didn't come with with a windows code but it was still activated just had to reset the pc to get it. That seems to be the new standard though for prebuilts.

    Wanted to love this but it constantly crashes on me. In the middle of gaming it will shut down and restart. As long as i dont do anything other than browse the internet and watch streams its fine. As soon as i try to game it struggles. Sickening considering the price.

    Love my gaming pc. This is the first gaming pc I’ve ever had and it has gone above and beyond what I’ve needed it to do. It performs like it should with no complications. Only thing I’ve added to it due to my own personal interest is a cool master cpu cooler, and two 16gb sticks of ram so I can have 32gbs of ram instead of 16 which is all preference depending on what you want to do with your pc. I’ve upgrade the mouse and keyboard as well which is all based on preference. All gaming pcs come with a low end mouse and keyboard but they all do the job they are needed for. 10/10 recommend this pre-build for anyone wanting to start. All parts are upgradable.

    Overall, I am very impressed with the system and at the price point, it was hard to beat. It was essentially a generational jump for me from my last purchase. The only issue was mounting my second M.2 slot. Unfortunately, the board did not come with a screw to mount the second M.2. I had to purchase a mounting kit at my expense.

    Power Supply, Achilles Heel, IBuyNOPower

    I purchased the SlateMR on Sale, about 15% off its regular retail. Before I get into details, the computer made it through about 8 hours of use and broke. I'm very displeased, i upgraded my internet, purchased games, all in preparation of this computer. The computer itself ran games smooth, and hardly ever got hot. But randomly probably during the weakest load I had it under, playing Grim Dawn 10gb game(Think Diablo 2) and a steam store window open. The power supply failed. I have owned the computer for four totals days, and it broke the first day I actually used it with internet. Ibuypower customer support has a few options on repair. Send, wait, get new part. Advance them money wait two weeks for a power year.inc power supply to arrive on the slow boat from China. Now they say it has 600w, that they'll replace it with a 650w, so it is a known problem but the brand is garbage, I understand inflation on graphics cards, but lets face it, a gtx3060 before the crypto farming craze, was about 360-450$ I am not seeing where the rest of the money is spent inside this thing, very poor build quality. I knew a pre-build was a risk, I expected problems at some point, but day 1. Total fail, i can't recover the drive, hopefully Best Buy can help us with a swap or return, because it doesn't seem like I'm going to receive much effort on Ibuypower's end. Hopefully this can help you make the right upgrades, or steer to a higher quality pre-build.
