I have been a console main all my life with both ps5 and xbox x. This is my first gaming desktop which I got so I could finally play star citizen and it DOMINATES. the RTX 5080 is enough to play star citizen on high and even ultra with no issues and other games on ultra as well and still be smooth. I'm still a pc novice so I can't give a detailed review but I LOOOOOOVE IT!!!! It can handle anything your throw at it. If you're a console player looking for a first PC, go for it. I know t's pricy but I promise you it will put a smile on your face

I'm reviewing this at the price point of 2200 on sale. For that price this is a good system, it runs everything maxed out, cyberpunk with ray and path tracing at 70-80fps in 4k.
I thought it would have a ton of bloatware on it but it doesn't, just an HP control center that's actually decent. I was surprised to see the LCD on the AIO that you can customize with video or have to read CPU/GPU stats etc.
The negatives are a small motherboard that the giant 5080 covers up most of, so forget using any other PCIE. You get 1 open NVME to use only and even getting an SSD in the case was a struggle. There is a HDD mounting point but the power and data cable don't easily reach it and you've got only one to use that I can see.
The Kingston Fury RAM is not the same as what's sold on Amazon, it's much slower but that's not a big concern. What is a concern is finding matching RAM to upgrade to 64gb since it's HP spec.
The upgrade path is basically non existent and you'll want to make sure the BIOS is updated due to the CPU degradation issues with Intel.
All in all at the price I paid I'm happy with the PC. There are other 5080 deals that pop up here and there at the 2200 price point and they may or may not offer a better value with a better upgrade path. I also have to say that the 5080 is a beast but still suffers from only 16gb VRAM which should be a crime. Nvidia really screwed up here and it will limit some games like MSFS24.

I bought this because I wanted to play games at 4K on my TV, and it was far cheaper getting this prebuilt PC than it was to build myself one at today's RAM prices.
I'm satisfied. The RTX 5080 is a beast! I'm getting 70-80 FPS on Ultra settings in some action heavy games at 4K. If I drop the settings to high, I'm usually maintaining my TV's limit of 120 FPS. The CPU could be more powerful, as noted in another review. That said, I've never seen my CPU running anywhere close to 100%. If you're using this computer mainly for gaming, you'll be just fine. I was pleasantly surprised with how useful the Omen gaming software is for keeping drivers and BIOS updated, and most importantly, it made it easy to turn off all the unnecessary tower lights! The PC is easily the quietest PC I've ever owned.
Definitely recommend. Its a bit pricey, though still a great deal for a PC with a 5080 GPU when on sale. You don't need to spend $2000+ to have a good gaming experience, but its an awesome experience if you do!

I originally had a gaming PC with a i7 14700kf paired with a 4080 Super before exchanging it for this one. I'm sure it is a great computer however the CPU downgrade from the KF to the F was too noticeable leaving me unsatisfied. Pretty long load times using Call of Duty launcher as a reference (+2min). Loading internet browsers or default programs that came with the device also took longer than expected. I ended up exchanging this one as well for another computer with a better CPU (i9 14900kf).
