    Purchased for my son who hasn't had any problems with any of the games he plays- but, nothing with super intense graphics. Seems like a good buy for the price!

    This gaming computer has all positives, let me say that without a doubt, it is an excellent value, is an amazing computer, and is capable of way more than gaming! Now, the details. If you start with aesthetics, this has a very cool look to it. And the removable side panel is very neat feature, which besides being easy to remove for any upgrades, just looks cool. From a useful perspective, you can see the USB ports, headphone and microphone ports, power switch, and SD card slot at the top of the computer, I think that adds to the look of this machine. Certainly makes it easy to interact with the most commonly used ports. From a performance perspective, you simply cannot go wrong. I always hear friends say they want to build a machine, later I find out some do and some don't. The ones who do build from scratch forget the issues with total cost, compatibility, cost of the OS, and stuff like that. It would be hard to build something as nice as this for the same price point. This machine has 16GB of RAM, a 1TB hard drive, and a 256SSD drive. And it has an i7 processor. What more could you ask for? How about the fact that this machine has a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card with 3GB of GDDR5 dedicated video memory. There is a super speed USB 3.1 port, which I don't even own anything that would take advantage of that speed, well not yet. I will though. Bluetooth 4.2 is icing on the cake. It is that next level bluetooth most have never even heard of. I have a year old version of a similar HP gaming machine, with a smaller processor, less memory, no SSD, and it rocks. This one just gets you to the next level and the next level is a nice place to be. If you are a hardcore gamer, going up a level is what you live to do. Gameplay is unbelievable on this computer. Now, for work, I use AutoCAD all the time. I found putting AutoCAD on this allows me to work during the workday and to do my designs at night, if I'm not gaming. Nothing I put on this computer slows it down or makes it pause. It is an amazing gaming computer, work computer, or home computer. You'll love this computer, if you are willing to spend a few more dollars. There are too many positives, with really no negatives, and it shows. Every single HP product I've owned or tried out, simply works and works without any issues of any kind. This goes back many years and many generations of equipment. HP stuff I've had just doesn't ever seem to break. The best part is that if this gaming computer isn't for you, Best Buy has an awesome return policy and you could return it. Frankly, once you get a feel for how fast and sturdy this computer is, you'll be keeping it without a doubt. Everyone I have told about this and has bought one based on my recommendation, has been very happy with it.

    This machine is exceeding all my expectations. I am a gamer but am also working on my degree to design games so I selected this device with that in my mind.

    When I first fired this baby up she purred like a kitten! I loaded up my favorite game(Minecraft) on a 27" monitor. It was gorgeous and smooth as silk!

    Had to uninstall McAfee anti-virus before installing my anti-virus program. Should come with manual. Very brief setup instructions. Solid state "C-Drive" helps performance.

    Other than shutting down for an error and having to pay for tech to come out it’s been ok. There’s a lot I don’t know about all the updates since I used a computer.
