Best pc for the price not even close. You find me a computer with a ryzen 7, 8 core 16 thread with 16 gigs of RAM for under 700, I would beg to believe this one is better.

This computer benchmarks well and is a great value for what you get (on sale). However, it does have limited expandability with no extra SATA connections or available PCI slots.

I actually use this machine as a home server. (Small gaming servers like Minecraft) but have opted to take it to LAN parties when I don't feel like moving my actual setup. Runs most games great like League or Fortnite. It will struggle with PUBG and a few other games that aren't optimized as well.

This computer is a good deal for the specs. The Ryzen 7 8-core, 16-thread processor is good for video editing applications. If you intend on using it for editing or gaming, plan on upgrading to an SSD from the slow HDD that it comes with.

Bought this PC for my 7 year old daughter as a beginning gamer. She doesn't play high graphics AAA games. She mainly plays Roblox, Minecraft, and Sims 3 and 4. Works great for what she needs it for.

Easy to use. Fits well on our desk. Minus one star because it had to be exchanged after a couple of days use. This one seems to be working out for us and is easy to navigate.

I’ve only had this computer for a few days but I’m not sure if I’m impressed yet.i do a lot of artwork in photoshop and I was told it would be super-fast and able to handle everything better than my laptop. By the way, that’s the same thing the salesman told me about my laptop when I bought it 4 years ago. Note; do your own research. Salesmen tend to exaggerate. Anyway, I haven’t noticed any increase in speed and actually seems a little slow and glitchy sometimes. Time will tell.

We are sorry to hear that the IdeaCentre 720-18 desktop is not meeting your expectations. We recommend you check with the software publisher's web sites for the software you use, for their compatibility with Windows 10 Home 64-bit operating system and the minimum/recommended hardware requirements (Is a Graphics card required, the processor speed and the minimum required system RAM and the minimum available hard drive space) to run their program, then compare those requirements to this system's configuration to be sure this system can handle the software you are using.
