"It is by far the best value I have seen online or at any other store. I have done hours of research to buy this one since I am a college student running on low budgets. Do the research yourself and I am positive you won't find any deal better that will actually give you a quality PC with high-end techs at such price.

"Only had it a week, but you can tell right out of the box it's a cheap computer. Feels "plasticy" and the buttons and panels seem like they might not last too long. Same goes fot the keyboard and speakers - feels too light and the keys are all flimsy. But for [$], what do you expect. If this computer lasts a year I'll be very suprised...." Read Full Review »

"Do not buy this computer if you plan on using it for gaming. The tiny, and by tiny, I mean extremely slim/narrow/small case does not have a lot of room for adding a non-integrated video card. You will need a video card that is low-profile design and will run on a power supply that is only 220 watt …" Read Full Review »

"I looked far and wide for a quad core mini tower and hands down this is the best deal that you will find - this is a power house of a computer packed into a very small sleek and quiet case that is ready to be used as a home theater pc. For the money, this is the best bang for [$] out there. I have …" Read Full Review »

"Great computer for price; I've had it for a little over a month now, and not had one problem with this PC. This computer has amazing power. I can't believe the number of simultaneous processes I can run and this machine does not stutter. However, there are some compatibility problems with Vista64, b …" Read Full Review »
