So far so good. This computer is almost everything I expected it to be. The Picture on amazon shows an optical out and an additional row of audio jacks. The one sent to me didn't have those. Almost returned it for that reason since optical is how I get digital sound to my receiver. However, the motherboard does have a SPDIF header. I had to rummage through some old parts to find a SPDIF back-plane. I was able to get digital sound from that. Another thing that is not a deal breaker, they partitioned ~150GB of the 1TB HDD for C: which is almost full after all the windows updates. Why not leave it as one partition + the recovery partition? Would have given it 5 stars otherwise.

Probably not the place to grumble about how annoying windows 8 is.

Just a few weeks ago I had made the decision to rebuild my computer. I had a two year old machine that was in very good condition, but I wanted something with a bit more poke. I went to Amazon.com to shop for the necessary components. I ordered the motherboard, processor, memory (RAM), power supply, graphics card and a new monitor. I received my order in just two days. After removing all of the 'stock' components, I started with the Asus Maximus IV motherboard, and Intel core i7 processor. Joining the two together took a few minutes. Then I installed the 16GB of Corsair DDR3 memory (RAM). The other items, such as the 750W + 80 PCU and the GTX550Ti graphics card and monitor were easy. I'm no expert, having rebuilt only one other computer. But when I plugged this baby in, it really took off. I installed Windows 7, also from Amazon.com. I never thought a computer could, or would be so quick.

I've been looking for a new computer for awhile, needing to upgrade from XP before all support ends and I didn't really want a windows 8 machine.  After 3 weeks of use I'm very happy with it.  It's much, much faster than my old computer.  Everything seems to work great.  I like the built-in bluetooth for my mouse and transferring pictures from my phone.  I like the feel of the keyboard, though I'm just a two finger typist.  The only thing lacking is the speakers.  They sound fine, just not a lot of volume.  I added a 4GB stick of RAM, bringing it up to 8GB total.  Very easy, one slot was empty, just popped it in and the system recognized it immediately.  Battery life is pretty accurate, 4.5 - 5 hrs, depending how hard you're working it.  Overall, seems to be an excellent value for the price.

This was a purchase that replaced an old computer of six years.  I specificity was looking for a Windows 7 high powered computer. It has come through and has met all expectations.  It runs my older software and all new.
I could not be more pleased.

I Love my new computer.  I have not had a computer for a few years so it was really important to get the right one.  The machine is solid and they really took their time to make sure that all of the work that went into it looks as neat as the case that is holding it.  The lights are great.  The whole thing is a work of art.  So far it works as promise.  The games look great and the graphic are awesome.  The computer comes with every thing you need like windows 10 and nothing you don't.  The set up was easy and the fact that they included a keyboard and mouse was great.  I had a problem with a monitor that I brought for it (from another company), but when I contacted customer service they were very helpful and we were able to solve the problem (which was to switch the monitor) right a way.  I would definitely buy another computer from them.

This computer has performed every task I've asked of it with ease. It's great for my studies, browsing the net or watching video. I do not use it for heavy gaming, however with it's specs it should handle moderately advanced games, but it was not designed for the hard core gamer. At this price it's a good deal when you consider the hardware inside. I would recommend this PC. I did not receive any perks for my review.

I got this at Best Buy for $700 and this is an excellent machine for its price.  You are getting an HD monitor, built in webcam and microphone, silent keyboard which is perfectly sized for an adult, a beautiful interface, a lovely touchpad to turn up your volume, mute, play, fast forward and rewind... a 64 bit system with 4 GB of RAM capable of holding 8 GB of RAM... amazing.  the mouse touchpad has a scroll function on its side.  this computer has state of the art audio, (the speakers of this brand are very costly), a dedicated video graphics card, and a very powerful processor.  coupled with its sleek design you cannot go wrong.  its versatile, and it is very easy to set up networking.  I have it set up in my home network. bought it 2 days ago and its fully functional.  all laptops are more delicate than desktops and not a replacement.  i got a service plan through BB in the case of hardware damage such as the monitor.  this is always wise.  anyway, take care of it and you have a great machine with great graphics capability and i already have an HP desktop and i'd say its comparable if not better.

I am so glad I bought this computer!  I was trepidatious at first, but it has turned out to be a great deal.  I don't game, just do normal computer things, and it is super fast.

I bought his laptop because let's face it two years and a laptop van be obsolete. It has many features I didn't know it had like anti tracking software and voice recognition computer assistant (she's still learning my accent) it has everything that I wanted to up grade for. It's also awesome for both gaming and entertainment and an option to choose best performance for either.just the amount of ram and memory is so much bett r f than my old. I would and have purchased this again for my son in 17.3"
