    Pros: Is a very good prebuilt desktop for the cost. Only the gpu cost around 800 to 900 with people using it to mine crypto. Maybe even more. Gaming wise has a good performance, stays quite and does not need a air conditioning on the room to stay within its normal temperature. Does not uses that much electricity when mining. Fans work good in maintaining the unit in lower temperatures. Good item if you get it below the advertisement cost. Cons: Mine came with two separate drive with a cobine…

    Pros: – Works with no issues so far – GPU was 3060 VENTUS 2X 12G OC according to TechPowerUp GPU-Z – Super quiet and doesnt run too hot, but its winter right now so who knows in the future. – Runs valorant at 1440p at 300+fps. Can run cyberpunk 2077 1440p on med around 60fps and high around 45fps and ultra with ray tracing at 35fps, which is decent enough for this build – Comes with okay mouse/keyboard that has RGB – Everything inside seemed secure didnt look too closely, but tried moving…

    Pros: Turned on and started up Looks nice Quiet Keyboard it came with is pretty. And clicky. Is nice. Cons: It came with a cpu cooler that was bent two different ways along with multiple fins smashed to bits. Super obvious to anyone with functioning eyes. Has a chip on the edge of the glass and they didn’t even put the foam padding for the glass on anything close to straight. Since this is a prebuilt, Newegg will just refer you to the manufacturer for any problems with your purchase because…

    Pros: Pros are a strong GPU and CPU combo The case has pretty good airflow RGB is neat Cons: The CPU cooler could probably be a little bit beefier, so could the PSU but its still good The RGB is neat but feels like it only cycles through yellow and white colors Overall Review: Overall I’m happy with my purchase, this PC has good specs and is a major upgrade for me personally. I’d recommend it if you’re looking for an all around PC, I’ve been playing VR and Forza every and it runs them all at…
