I would like to start by saying that this PC is a massive upgrade from the laptop I previously had! I went from barely pushing 30 fps to reaching about 200+ fps in Minecraft. The same goes for Fortnite - settings Low- 250-300 fps, Medium - 200-250, High- 120 to 150, and Epic- 60-90 fps. This PC can smoothly run most games at 60+ fps - for games that require more storage than others, I recommend upgrading your SSD(500GB), ram (16GB), or even your graphics card for better performance. Overall, buying this PC was a great investment for me. :)
The components iBuyPower uses depends on what they have in stock but if you happen to get an MSI Motherboard in this build I recommend that you download the Dragon Center Software from https://www.msi.com/Landing/dragon-center-download. Having that software would allow you to change the color of the fans - along with their speed and many other options. If you're not a big fan of the lights, you could turn them off using the program.

Best pre-built for the cost of this system. I changed the cpu cooler to a water cooler because the stock cooler didn’t really keep up during under load. The graphics card is very good and you should be able to overclock it with msi afterburner. Things that I added or changed was I added 16gb more of ram, added a 500gb nvme drive and of course the water cooler with the rgb. Might want to change the power supply to a better one than 500 watts or more because the power supply can get very loud. But still this pc is very good for the price and u should upgrade it more in the future so u don’t have to worry about it for years.

Firstly, the pc that I purchased from this website is very pleasing to look at. The pc is colorful and it’s very nice to be able to see the inner workings. This machine is very fast and set up was easy as pie. The graphics are amazing and it’s extremely quiet. I would definitely recommend this to a friend or anyone who wants a good pc.

Got a really good deal on the pc for Black Friday. It was easy to setup and is very stylish with the led lights. As far as performance, it’s too soon to say but everything seems to be working fast.

Best PC I could ever ask for, for the price! I definitely recommend this! Graphics are beautiful! It looks beautiful! You can change the colors. It runs every game you can ask for really smooth for 8GB RAM! Imagine once you get a 16GB ram stick though!

Mines goes from 400-600 when I turn on performance mode! This item is the best item and is really good! I recommend it!

The product was just as intended & a very good starter product to get into the Pc realm.
The base model did its job, but everything is super clean and managed on the inside.
Soooo. It makes upgrading easy.
The Pc-IE cables were tucked away and tangled because the 1650 Gpu that came eith it didnt need the extra power, but after a little bit of effort. I was able to get it routed to the front for my new card.
P.s. This is by far ONE of my favorite case designs.

Purchased it in January and decided to wait a full month before I give it a full review. I really love this PC. Great for gaming and other daily activities like work, streaming, etc. Wish it had more than one HDMI output port but not a big deal as I was able to rectify that with an extension to get my double monitors to work.
It may seem like it doesn't work to start if you have the HDMI plugged in the wrong ports so make sure you double check you have it connected into the right one before worrying like I did.
It comes with the latest version of Windows 10 and is a very easy and user friendly operating system that you can learn really easily and quick. It plays many games I've played on it very smoothly with no issues whatsoever at the highest settings possible for 1080p 60 fps (I have yet to try anything greater that 1080p 60fps).
I would've given it 5/5 however the keyboard is the only issue I have somewhat of a problem with. It's still a fairly new keyboard but considering I've been using it almost everyday since I got, the keys would get a bit loose and not be as tough and difficult to push it but they are and some keys get stuck for a couple of seconds. So you may want to get a different keyboard for that reason, though I am super fond of the RGB effect that is does have so I'd need to look for another keyboard similar to the one included.
Overall, very satisfied with this computer and I think that it's a great gaming PC to start out with as you get you foot in the door into the PC world if you don't want to spend all your money on individual parts. Would buy again, just get a separate keyboard.

This computer is beautiful , I recently purchased an Alienware m15 R3 , it would get really hot and loud , I returned it for this beast and I’m really satisfied . It’s really quiet and runs cool. I’m added a 1tb PCI ssd from a previous computer and it didn’t require any formatting . So all my games transferred to this computer with no problem . I currently play gta , nba 2k21 , and call of duty on this . I haven’t downloaded cyber punk 2077 on this but I’m sure it can handle it . There is no lagging , it’s very responsive . The mouse that’s included is VERY comfortable ! And the keyboard is a very nice touch as well .

Love this pc. I thought it was gonna be a A320 motherboard, but it came with an msi b460 m pro vdh nice surprice. The gpu was also msi 1650. The cable management was great. The only i wld change is the ram. I bought the corsair 3200 (8x2)16gb rbg ddr4. Fast for call od dury getting 90 to 120 fps. I would highly suggest to buy the additional ram. It improved the overall experince.

Excellent Black Friday deal! Ready to put the box, just the normal set up. It was ready to go in no time. Bought this as an early Xmas present for my oldest. He uses it for Zoom, homework, and gaming! He loved the lights on the PC and keyboard and mouse. He is the coolest kid on the block. Awesome performance for the price. Quality display and FPS.

For those wondering the full specs of the computer, it has a MSI gpu, intel i5 cpu, gigabyte motherboard, and Forza Ram. Upgrade the ram and you are all set. I upgraded the ram to 16gb by Corsair. I use it for school as I’m mainly on Microsoft word and PowerPoint. You won’t be disappointed.

Bought this to replace my dual core laptop, and this was a great start into the pc world, high end parts, smooth running system a ton faster than what I had, shipped fast and it looks great! Definitely recommend upgrading ram though!
