    this computer has a small physical size but has very good i3 cpu so can keep up with the big boys. It does not tie up a lot of desk space but still gets the job done.

    It had good reviews but they do not hold to the real world. I had so many choices that it was hard at times to keep track of all the features and good reviews. Not to mentioned that every website has its own format to list features. But finally settled on this model. Its slow to boot and slow to load videos or any thing else. Windows OFFICE is only a trial period. So be ready to purchase it. My 4 year old Gateway performs better. Will go back to Gateway on my next purchase.

    Unlike the comparably priced competition, the motherboard and case on this small form factor desktop is pretty normal, and therefore expandable. I was able to upgrade the GPU, which would not have been possible in other comparable desktop units in the store.

    I purchased this unit for work at home. The unit is quiet and the bot up time is quick. The I3 processor has a great benchmark that is rated above most other I3 units and most I5 laptops. Not bad so far

    At the time it was one of two computers at my store that had intel cpu . Really hate AMD cpu . But you must get more ram because 4gb doesn't cut it max it out with two 8gb sticks
