Most Favorable Review

More than I expected (Edit as of 04/13/2018, still going strong! amazing computer)

DELL Desktop PC XPS 8500 X850009790722SA Intel Core i7-3770 12GB DDR3 2TB HDD AMD Radeon HD 7770 Windows 8 64-bit
DELL Desktop PC XPS 8500 X850009790722SA Intel Core i7-3770 12GB DDR3 2TB HDD AMD Radeon HD 7770 Windows 8 64-bit

Pros: Very silent, quick and powerful, slick design, everything is very comfortable the power button is on top, the DVD opens very easily and is hidden with a cover which opens and closes by itself, has card readers which make it very comfortable for photographers, great graphic card(raedon 7770) and comes with a slick mouse and keyboard.

Cons: windows 8 kinda throws the new design in your face, Its not a desktop fault but Microsoft's thing, they removed the start button so now you gotta get a separate app like startisback, windows 8 is nice overall especially for tablet users just gotta tweak it a bit. I wish I would receive a use rguide for the Raedeon graphics card.

Overall Review: was pleasantly surprised to receive a mouse and a keyboard with the dell system, the mouse is really nice with speed button on top for mouse speed and back and forward web browsing buttons on the sides of the mouse. very pleased with it. the keyboard is simple and nice, feels very comfortable for whatever you need whether gaming or graphic design.

Most Critical Review

Worked well for a year, started to significantly decrease in performance after that.

WD Blue 4TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD40EZRZ
WD Blue 4TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD40EZRZ

Pros: Worked well until about a year or so

Cons: Slowed down performance and became noisy after a year

Overall Review: I do a lot of graphics and art on my computer and speed is crucial, for my main HD I used Corsair Solid State Drive, and can't complain, but recently my secondary WD hard drive has been slowing down my entire system, causing lags and hiccups even as I write this, I've tried to defrag but to no avail. I've had WD brand since I started using computers over 20 years ago so I will give it another shot with the highest quality HD they have and this time higher RPM than 5400.

More than I expected
