Question1) What is the make/model of the power supply unit? 2) What is the default warranty on this purchase? Thank you!
Asked 2 years ago by abc.
- Answer ABC, Its a HIGH POWER 750W Model HP1-J750GD-F12S (See photos) It is not modular. When my new system arrived I immediately pulled the power supply (I wanted a really good PSU) and replaced it with a Corsair RMX Series (2021), RM1000x, 1000 Watt, Gold, Fully Modular Power Supply. The reason for more power is I have added more LED lights and wanted to have additional power for future upgrades. Note swapping the power supply only took 30 minutes. 15 minutes to complete the install, 10 minutes to dress the cables, and 10 minutes to ponder what I plan to do with a relatively new 750 Power Supply. I hope this helps!

QuestionSo does this PC have two M.2 slots so I can add an additional SSD drive? Is there a diagram showing where the slots are located?
Asked 3 years ago by Cable.
- Answer There are actually 3 M.2 Slots - quite visible. One is heat shielded above the GPU, one is behind the gpu, and another is below the GPU. However if you use all 3 it will disable some of your Sata ports. It does also come with a sata cable so you can absolutely hook up an SSD for it. There are areas for you to mount it if needed.

QuestionSays Liquid Cooling, what do I have to do to ensure optimum cooling with this? Maintenance? Liquid Changes? I never had a liquid-cooled PC before. There is NO mention of it in the quick start manual.
Asked 2 years ago by EviLilMonkey.
- Answer The liquid cooling setup is as cheap as it comes in the i7-3080-16gb pre built. I also never had liquid cooling until I bought this. Was happy for two weeks before the pump failed. It’s apparently so common that your best bet is to immediately upgrade to a high end liquid setup or to a fan only setup. I recommend “Noctua U12A” for $120 as a fan only setup. Temps stay very cold and is very quiet even on high end settings on intensive games. Hope this helped.

QuestionI'm trying to install an m.2 SSD right underneath the GPU. Where are the screws that hold down the m.2? Are they somewhere else on the motherboard?
Asked 2 years ago by Andy.
- Answer For the M.2 screw unfortunately it usually comes with the MB box which we do dispose of. Sometimes the assembler will put it in the accessory bag, but most likely you will need to purchase the screw separately.

QuestionWill it handle MS2020 Flight Sim ?
Asked 3 years ago by Rod.
- Answer Yes, rather easily. The only way you could do better would be to get an i9-12900, or get a 3080ti or 3090 graphics card. But for the most part, this is one of the best machines out there you could use, period.

QuestionThe I7 processor has proven to be great thus far, however I'm curious as to whether I would be able to upgrade from i7 to the i9 in the future? Is it as simplie as swapping out the processors or would there be additional upgrades in order to install i9?
