    I bought this about two weeks ago for my 13 year old son and he has been playing it everyday since then and can't stop smiling every time I ask how are things with it. Really solid pre built here specially for the price, cant go wrong with this PC. He's mostly playing Fortnite, Genshin Impact, Roblox and Minecraft and everything runs smooth and its very quiet.

    Be careful before buying this PC.

    Upon buying this PC, it was a good experience, since the best I had back then was a $275 HP Laptop which was really slow after around 2 years, so when I bought this new PC, I was pretty excited. After 3 weeks of use, it was perfectly running with no errors, until one day I got a "DPC Watchdog Violation" blue screen error. At first I was nervous, since I've never had to deal with one of these errors, but it ran fine in the next 2 days. Thats when every day, these errors would show up. The screen would freeze randomly during use and would BSoD with this error and restart, and the audio gone. Agitated, we did the logical thing and sent it to geek squad, and they recommended we send it to Lenovo for them to fix it, and I thought it was reasonable, so we did it. Got it back a month later and still, error. We sent it a total of 4 times! And still kept getting this error, which is insane! During these 4 sends when receiving back the computer, I did research to find out why this was happening, but couldn't find any solution. The fact that I couldn't return this now got me and my family angry since we spent $1,000 on a broken PC, but that's when I found a website which could fix the problem. When I did the steps, the problem was solved, and the crashing came to an end. This PC works now like a charm. The issue as to why the crashing occurs in this PC and any Lenovo Legion PC with this specific case model is the sound and graphics drivers. They are not compatible with this PC, causing the error. So in order to fix this problem, you have to delete the drivers on the PC and download ones fabricated by Lenovo for it to work properly. After all those things I had to go to, the computer finally decided to work properly again, and now I am relieved. I installed another 8 GB of RAM inside of the PC so I can have a much better experience. I do not recommend this PC, however the value is pretty good, so if you do buy this, just know to go to this website to fix the DPC Watchdog frequent crashes as to which I also used: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/lenovo-t5-28imb05-keeps-freezing-randomly/0e4a7b9b-3e8f-4cee-82b1-8fb75c34436f

    Should of done this a lot sooner when I got the pc though no better time than now, the pc was everything I expected it to be however it has one major flaw which makes me question not only best buy but Lenovo's desktops as well. And that is ever since I got this pc it crashes every now and then, I cannot control when this happens it just does, some have told me it has something to do with the bad power supply Lenovo uses which is the most likely case here. Do not buy a Lenovo computer, spend extra money on better prebuilts that you can trust not on chinese hardware
