Pros: Able to run the games I've thrown at it so far and the boot time is really short thanks to the SSD.

Cons: The biggest problem on this computer is the fact that it tries to install everything to the INCREDIBLY SMALL SSD. This wouldn't be so bad if the thing had any space available to begin with! When I booted the PC up the first time it only had about 1 fifth of the free! I had to waste my time trying to figure out ways to free up space on the thing. The computer also tries to install EVERYTHING to the C drive. This isn't so bad for programs where you can change the install path, but the smaller installs where you can't (or big ones like Norton) will eat your free space so fast you won't know what to do. Even with some registry tweaks it will still install bits and pieces to the C drive.

Overall Review: I DO NOT recommend this computer to ANYONE who isn't sure what they are doing. If you do know what you're doing with computers you're probably better off putting one together yourself. Not abysmal performance but all the little things I've had to try and do to free up space make this computer not worth the hassle.
