Really nice setup! Works flawlessly. It was plug and play (noting really tells you that). It's the ideal custom build without building it, at a reasonable price. I would add, there is no instructions on how to remove the side panel of glass to remove the packaging from shipping and I couldn't find anything online to explain it. The glass in front of the 3 fans pops right off, where as the side glass housing has to be unscrewed on the back and you slide the glass towards the back of the computer to remove the foam inserts. Lastly, it came with a bunch of wires in a Velcro bag...I still have no idea what they are for and nothing tells you; so you assume they are to make connections but they are not. Not sure if you can change the color the fans display, again, no instructions and can't find anything only to tell me. Very minor hiccups but still annoying. I still gave it 5 stars because I could just be dumb. LOL!

Have not had long but so far the PC is running everything I have thrown at it very nicely. Running most games 4k 100+ FPS. Having a few issues I have not figured out yet. The RAM is only running at 2600 MHZ with XMP disabled and when I try to enable XMP in the BIOS the system gives me a memory error and defaults back to the 2600 MHZ.
The RGB software only controls the RAM as it tells me there is no controller connected in the system and the R button on top of the case only resets the system

This PC is crazy good. I ran a benchmark test on it and it gave me over 130fps at 4k. Absolute beast at a decent price. It took me a little time to figure out how to control the RGB fans but once you update all the drivers, they should sync with no problem. I gave it 4 stars because it came with a broken front dust filter, which was the only part of the PC that was loose in the shipping box. Since the dust filter is broken, it doesn't fully attach to the front surface of the PC (see pictures)

I use it for editing photos and artwork in between matches of COD. So far it has performed perfectly. Photoshop and call of duty are both demanding on the pc, ive been super impressed and my husband now wants one.

Great computer for a lazy gamer looking for better graphics, HD space/speed and ram. I know if I had done the work/research I could have built a better computer for the same price or less. But i be lazy and this was everything i wanted/needed.

The computer doesn’t come with rgb or fan software downloaded on it but it directs you in the way to download armoury crate which is the offical software used by the asus motherboard to control them. After trying to figure out why my computer was having random hard stutters so bad I would have to reset the pc and black screens on boot. I am highly sure it was caused by armoury crate. This being said it basically tells you to download this software while setting up the PC. I give this PC a hard F, that software is a virus. I have removed it and my pc runs great but now I can’t control the rgb or fans. Don’t buy this PC.
