Pros: -Works great right out of the box after very minor setup. -Is able to play new games at ultra graphics quality. -Very quiet, even when working hard. -Decent Mouse and Keyboard included. -Tower is easy to open, has wonderful magnetic screens you can remove to increase cooling, and has very simple setup for upgrades or additions. -Works amazingly for video and music editing, with very low render times. -Easy hook up and driver installation.

Cons: -Could use an extra fan as it gets hot after an hour or so. -Very low range wifi card, should either upgrade, go with a corded hookup, or get an external card for best wifi usage. -Keyboard is not set up for gaming amazingly, and is not lit. Would suggest getting a better one if you intend to game. Mouse is decent, but only has four buttons to map.

Overall Review: I am loving this computer. For the price it is the best gaming computer out there, and matches or outclasses devices at more than twice the price. With cheap and minor upgrades you can easily make this a monster machine, and has a very easy to open and adjust tower. If you throw a little more ram on it, pop and extra fan in there, and get a decent keyboard and monitor and you have everything you need to game at a high level personally, and at the low level competitively. This machine also works very well for video and music recording and editing. I work in film and television and mostly use apple products for work, but when I am home I like to game and use a pc, this is able to match the apple in almost every regard, and is so much cheaper it was a no-brainer. Great computer, great deal, iBuypower is a company to keep an eye on during deal season, just do your research to be sure the guts are decent. The lower level iBuypower computers don't come close, but this is my first of their more expensive models, and it was well worth the money.
