iBUYPOWER Pro Gaming PC Computer Desktop Slate5MR 249a (AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz, NVIDIA GTX 1650 4GB, 8GB DDR4, 480 GB SSD, Windows 11 Home)

Very nice CPU and Video Card for the price point, in fact the lowest pre-built system with that combo I could find at the time of review... Case is great for airflow and filters on vents. Its a frame for a better gaming system but the MB requires changing almost immediately. My last ground up build was 10+ years old, (having sat unused for 8 years of that time) by now so I had a major overhaul and only kept my 10 year old "future proofed" power supply.Pros:-VC good enough -> came with a ASRock RX5500XT 4G.-CPU Great -> did come with a Ryzen 3600-Case layout and components are no frills but very well designed no idea name but plenty of RGB (too much for an adult)Cons:-Out of Box ASRock A320 Motherboard had pin temp (VRM I think could not diagnose location) showing 120deg C (115-121) with multiple hardware monitoring programs. Had to replace the MB to avoid a fire (at those temps chips burn quick chips usually rated for 5 yr @ 100 deg c, at 121 deg Arrhenius Equation tells you you'll likely have a problem soon). I replaced with a X570 AORUS, all temps less than 50 deg including VRM.-CPU Fan Sucked out of Box - the included CPU fan was a no name el cheapo unit loud and bad at cooling 50-75 deg C all the time... wish it came with the AMD Wraith, it does not. Replaced with CM 212 with MX-4, runs at 26-50 now.-Power Supply was a High Power 500W... I replaced with an old Corsair TX850W from a decade ago. My first thought to troubleshoot the hot WB was the PSU being bad.-Ram ADATA 8G 2333 single stick out of the box... It's a waste of the CPU and GPU to run it without dual channel -> instead got 2x16g Team Dark Z 3200.... Ran much smoother.

The Q+ A says it will handle ANY of the modern Call of Duty games - no shot - took it out of the box and started downloading warzone. Halfway through it told me storage was full. Was told I could purchase more memory/storage. How does a gaming pc not handle a game that my 6yr old ps4 can with zero problems. 100% disappointed. Someone tell me if I’m doing something wrong?

This is a good pc I got it for my kid and bought some Corsair DDR4 2x8 sticks of 3200 MHz ram and a evo 1tb 970 ssd m.2 driver and store all the games on there runs cod coldwar and battle royal games good you . I spent $245 extra for the ram and ssd but you will need it the to run cod Cold War as it uses a lot of spaceAnd one more thing my motherboard didn’t have a screw for the ssd driver so it’s just sitting in there not secured down until I get my random computer screws in the mailsUpdate:::). Had this over a month and no complaints what so ever me and my kid are always on this pc and he loves it I highly recommend this pc it’s a good mid range pc as long as you add the ssd for games it also runs smother and faster and don’t forget 2x8 total 16 gigs of ram that’s all you need to play games you don’t need 32 gigs hope this helps someone

Update: Graphics Failed and could not be fixed at geek squad! Would have been good.Returned, what a dissapointment!Original Review:So this computer is so beautiful. I installed 32gb of corsair RGB pro ram and 1tb SSD. I also like how easy it is to get inside the pc and upgrade the ram, in the back panel, there are 2 Phillips screws for the SSD and another 2.5" slot for another SSD/HDD and Power Supply. For Ram/Motherboard/GPU you open 1 Phillips screw and you pull up and remove the glass cover, so since this was my first time upgrading ram, I was scared I would break something but you only need to put ram in an angle locked into one of the tabs and push down and the ram is in from 8gb to 32gb. and storage, simply unplug the SATA and SATA Power Cable and screw out and take out the old and put the new in. So for a first timer, this is easier than I expected. So I don't like how the stock 240gb SSD died on me but I upgraded it!

Very impressed so far. Everything from the cables to the keyboard and mouse, to the quality of the hardware, to the ease of unboxing and set up. Couldn't be happier.

The drive is small. But the rest and that cavernous case makes for a brilliant base and go forward project. I have had a Lenovo C660 on the desk for several years because company gear elsewhere. Times have changed.I like to game and run business and video apps seamlessly. DCS and War Thunder run like butter on near ultimate settings. I need a wicked monitor.So pleased. Like buying a perfect NA Miata or a stripped MK6 GTI or maybe a rust free mid year BMW 2002 and now I get to first learn everything about it and how it works but then am so confident that I can build further and enjoy

I had been pricing out a new build, but it has been years since I've built a system and was a bit wary that I might mess something up. No reason for this since I've built several systems in my day.For the cost, I felt this was a great option. Only slightly more than the components would have cost me, with plenty of upgrade options in the future (motherboard compatibility mainly.)I did immediately swap out the smallish SSD for a TB m.2. Migration was smooth with Macrium. I've unplugged the shipped drive and left it in the case. Should the m.2 fail, I can be up and running again in a few minutes.It's been a few weeks and I haven't had any complaints.

I’m certainly not a hard-core gamer, so I looked around for a few months pricing out gaming computers that were better than entry level but not pro level. There wasn’t anyone on the internet or local store that could beat the price with the same equipment that this computer came with. It was a homerun for sure. It is a sweet computer. My only issue was that I could not find where to install the SATA data drive that I purchased. The box and wiring are so clean, it was hard to determine. I pull the side off opposite the glass and found the HD mounts in the bottom inside the power supply container. It was hard to see originally since the power cables were also stuffed in this area too. This entire setup and price are a homerun for sure!!

good value for the money, looks nice too

Amazing pc, I was going to give it a 5 star but the only downfall is that you have to buy more ram and more storage other than that it runs super fast, it’s quite, it’s looks amazing, and it was super easy to set up. I was running warzone on medium setting at 90-100 FPS.

I spent months looking into "budget builds" for a gaming PC. This is much cheaper than building one yourself (when looking only at the parts included), or even having a basic custom one built through websites. the ram and storage does need to be upgraded to play some of the more intense games, but isn't needed right away. I play Fallout with no problems at all on ultra graphics. 100% recommend buying this starter pc!

Shopped around quite abit and found this to be the best value for what I need, I use it for day trading and streaming and it runs great. No bloatware which was nice, the polychrome app is finicky and opens once and agter that i have to restart to get it to open. I tried emailing and calling ibuypower but no answer or response, would recommend

Ordered this PC for gaming and digital art. I am very pleased with it so far. Super easy to set up, plug in, and play. It seems powerful and fast.My only big complaint is that the expandable storage slot is only 2.5". It seems odd that it doesn't have a 3.5" spot for an HDD. I would recommend getting a portable HDD, since the storage isn't huge. Still a great value for the price. Also, my monitor and graphics tablet both use HDMI, so I had to get displayport cables since it only has one HDMI port. The three displayports make up for that though!The keyboard and mouse that come with it are not great, but work okay for now. The LEDs are nice too.
