Do NOT buy from iBuyPower! Their customer support is terrible! They sent me a DEFECTIVE computer with a faulty ram drive, and expected me to pay to ship it to them, and after two weeks finally got around to looking at it, I had to tell THEM the problem because they couldnt even figure it out, and now I have to wait another week to get it back. I went all the way up their corporate ladder trying to get them to understand they need to do something to fix this issue but they literally told me they would do nothing for me. At the end of the day, this is a company that does not care about their customers. This PC is my only source of income and now Im out three weeks of it. If it didnt cost money to return, I would do so in a heartbeat. I will never buy from them again, and I hope no one else falls prey to their terrible practices. Im so sorry if you have, I understand.

The first one of these computers I purchased would turn itself off after 5 or so minutes without warning. After getting a replacement sent, the next computer wouldnt turn on at all. I worked with tech support to ensure there were no connections loose and was informed that I just received defective units. Im very disappointed with this because it was my first time buying a high-end PC and I had heard great things about the brand. Not to mention, its not an easy task to box up and return 2 huge computers. Ill be looking elsewhere for my next purchase.

Works Great with Ubuntu Studio 18.04 I have been editing video on this computer like a mad man. This computer has made a huge difference in my video editing time. This computer has been able to render a 2 hour 1080@60fps in under an hour in Kdenlive. Something that would have taken 10-15 hours on my old laptop. So if youre getting into video editing this is a great start I also swapped out the 120gb SSD to a 500gb which wasnt necessary but I wanted to try rendering to the same drive as the OS and move it to a storage drive later since Ive heard it is the wat to get videos to render fast. Its definitely faster writing to an SSD than to a traditional drive. I will say there isnt much room to upgrade the memory or add video cards I did add a WiFi card to the empty PCI slot, so I can upload videos to YouTube until I get a Ethernet cable to the computer. It also has 3 open SATA ports on the motherboard. Its really quiet and doesnt make any noise will rendering large videos.

Don’t buy this computer sucks. 1200 down the drain. Games constantly crash, constant blue screens horrible customer support from ibuypower. Save your money and go with a different company or build your own. Even on lowest settings this computer can’t run games the way it should. A 1200 pc shouldn’t crash after 5 minutes of playing a game.

I wasnt expecting too much with a sub $1000 price. However, after receiving (fast) and un-boxing, I was very surprised at the build quality and some of the extras that are not mentioned in the listing. It is very hard to find a gaming computer with 16Mg of DDR4, a Radeon RX580, and the Newer Ryzen CPU for under $1000. There always seems to be something missing when you get under $1000. This machine is super fast, super quiet and super nice looking. I have it hooked up to a 55 inch HDTV (4k HDR - TCL Brand). It looks very...very good. I was worried about such a big TV/Monitor. Buy with confidence! This isnt a $5000 machine. However, it does rival any of the $1500 machines you are probably looking at. Upgrade the video card if you really want to... But I suggest using the Radeon RX 580 first. It bet you keep it!

I would recommend getting the 1800x because the specs are just so much better then the i7. I got this for the 800$ mark, now its at 999$ which is still better. Its extremely fast and very quite. Why recommend this one over the other amazon desktops? Because it has literally the best budget specs you can buy for this price instead of building your own. Not to mention the specs for this one are just BARELY even going under the i7 PC, so whats the point in spending an extra 500$ for the other? It makes no sense. You can spend that 500$ on something else, or to upgrade the graphics card, ram, or PCU. The PCU that comes with this is already top notch and is barely even under the 2800x. I just see no point in any of this, all I see is wasted money. This PC is also good for streaming, mulitasking, video editing and rendering. Yes, you can play just about any new game on ultra, no problems. I dont know about those 1 star reviews, im guessing the ones with the missing product are fake reviews, or people stealing parts from the computer and returning it to build their own. I took 1 star off because the amazon box was flawless, but the product box from ibuypower was 40% damaged. I had a tiny little ding on the top tower, not really noticeable, but I carefully inspected it. I do recommend this PC above all others, and I will keep this updated as time goes, since Im always on amazon.

It seems like a decent deal for the price but the 2 usb ports on top came broken. Meaning they dont work. There are 6 usb ports in the back so im keeping it but its annoying. I just have to bend under my desk to plug new things in if i need. I have my printer, mouse, keyboard, speakers, cameo and gopro plugged in a lot. Also the computer doesnt have speakers. It might say that so i wouldnt mark it down for that but i didnt realize i needed to purchase some lol. Also. HDMI cord came broken, so did the display port cord.

Just bought this beast at the end of July 2018. This beast screams for the price I paid. Kiddo is happy playing Fortnite. Initially there was fan noise coming off the tower. Upon furhter investigation, I found out that the plastic bag covering the front plate back was covering the bottom front fan. I removed it after powering off the machine. It was left there during assembly and may have come off during transportation. I need to buy a FreeSync display to complete the package. This is a great deal under 1K$. I added 25$ for 3 yrs coverage just case some part goes bad. I ran some free tests and this machine came in on top.. .I saw 140 FPS in the GPU test. Everything is blazing fast. Now I am not a Pro gamer, but for my 11 yr kiddo, there is more in this tower than he would need for the next 5yrs... Great investment!

I just received this computer today so I havent had a chance to really test it out but so far its been perfect. Ive bought computers before where right from the start there have been problems. Not this time. It was well packaged and looks great. Just be aware though, this is a GIANT case. Bigger than I was expecting. So be aware of that and make sure you have room for it. Im having to rearrange my entire office/gaming room for it. The LEDs look beautiful though so that makes up for it. And for the price you cant beat the specs. Highly recommend!

I love that Amazon offers reliable household items PLUS SOME at the click of a button and normally reliable delivery. I have never had many issues until this purchase. After researching and weighing options this was our sons one big ticket item he got for Christmas. We did take a peek upon delivery because it was left on our doorstep out in the open in the very box from manufacturers with no extra protection and advertising the expensive item. Our son wanted this because this is a PC favored to gamers but can grow with his interests and can be modified, altered to his liking as he learns and developes in this hobby. Christmas Day came and of course the anticipation was held long enough but we sat down as a family to help learn and piece together his new project. As we went down the manual looking at figures displaying steps we felt it was there was maybe a mistake or another box missing?! We went to the parts included list and then while one was on the phone with Amazon the other was reaching out to the manufacturer. SURE ENOUGH FOR $999.99S THIS SHOULD INCLUDE A MOTHERBOARD, TOWER, DVD/CD/BLUERAY PLAYER (TO BE INSTALLED) AND ALL WE RECEIVED WAS THE TOWER WITH REMOVABLE TEMPERED GLASS SIDES AND FANS, A CHEAP KEYBOARD AND MOUSE. Since Christmas I have been on the phone with several Amazon agents and team leaders but none have answers on how this happens nor have they offered any type of compensation for our RUINED Holiday. At this point I feel we have seen a side of Amazon that we never thought existed!!! Item is still within the return window. On Christmas and yesterday I got agents who did NOT speak English well! When I did get agents who were based in the US I had to explain what type of PC this is MORE THAN TWO TIMES! Seems I get passed around for well over an hour each time, nothing resolved and hit a dead end because if your case or item is TOO HIGH theyd rather play dumb and NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. FAMILY FRIENDS AND EMPLOYEES I AM WARNING AND HOPE MANY TAKE NOTE DO NOT PUT YOUR TRUST IN AMAZON TO PUT THE CUSTOMER FIRST. ONCE YOUR MONEY IS IN THEIR HANDS THEY CAN SEND YOU A BOX OF POTATOES IF THEY CHOOSE TO AND CARE NOTHING ABOUT THE LOYAL CUSTOMER! STICK TO ORDERING ZIPLOCS AND LAUNDRY DETERGENT! THEY ARE CLUELESS AND INCAPABLE OF HANDLING BIG TICKET ITEMS AND ASSURING THEY GET TO THE CORRECT DESTINATION!!! WE MAY NEVER FIND OUT WHERE OR HOW THE BRAIN/MOTHERBOARD AND BASICS OF OUR $1,000.00 COMPUTER BECAME MISSING AND AMAZON COULDNT CARE LESS!.........HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!
