Awesome pc friends family and my self really all think its a beautiful looking case. It runs almost every game if not every game I throw at it at max setting. The bad part is the ports are on the inside of the pc and do not face out

Upon receiving the computer, everything appeared to be in working order. However, after a few hours of setting everything up on the computer, I ran into a minor problem with the motherboard. When trying to use the USB connections on the top of the case, I realize that one of the USB 3 connections Was broken and would not receive any data. Upon my own investigation of checking the motherboard and the cable running from the cases USB’s to the motherboard, I found that the connection at which the two met had been poorly put together. Taking out the cable and looking at that connection point, I realize that whoever had put together the PC had done a poor job at putting the connector together together and there were several bent pins with a few broken inside of the connection point. This will not interfere with the regular every day operations of the computer, but when paying this much for a product, such as this, I would expect to see better caretaking in the assembly of the PC that way we don’t have damaged motherboard upon arrival. I know this is probably an accident on Best Buy’s part but I expect more quality checks when it comes to PCs at this 2000+ price point.

I will preface this review by saying ive only had this PC for about a week and will update this review should anything change. So far, my expectations have been exceeded. This thing works amazingly well. This is my first prebuilt PC, i have always built my own in the past, but with component prices where they are at, it would have cost just as much, if not more, than this prebuilt. The packaging was exceptional, with no issues with delivery and unboxing. The build quality really impressed me, everything was securely installed and the cable management is pretty solid. The only gripe i have so far is the way the fans are set up on the radiator they are set to blow air out of the case as opposed to suck air in, for this case configuration sucking air in would have been optimial but can be changed later also one of the fans on top of the case seems to be slighlty louder than the others, but that could just be my perception. Also, my PC came with a different gpu and mobo than what is pictured, came with a B760M-CW and an MSI Ventus 4080 S although your mileage may vary based on component availability at the time of ordering. Upon boot up, i was pleased to see a clean Windows install with no bloatware (that i can find anyways). Additionally, after performing several updates and checking the bios, i was pleasantly surprised to see an XMP profile already set up by default, the bios firmware was up to date, and resizeable bar was already enabled! It also appears that there may be an undervolt on my cpu as the 14700kf was sitting at 1.288 volts at idle. I have had no heat issues, everything seems to be running relatively cool. I mostly play flight sims and strategy games and so far this thing has chewed through everything i have thrown at it happily!
