Wow. Just wow. This is the best-kept secret in computers. I own a professional photography and video production studio and needed a new workstation for HD video editing. I thought I’d give this a try after receiving a recommendation from a friend to use gaming computers for video production. This computer has all the specs I need for a solid workstation; fast processor, great video card, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB hard drive. All for a third of the price of a “custom” computer from some larger companies. It is an excellent starting point for my needs. I simply added a couple SSD’s and a blu-ray burner and I now have a beast of a machine. The Windows 8 operating system takes a little getting used to but you can upgrade to the superior 8.1 for free. This machine comes with absolutely no bloatware. Will soon be updating my other workstations with more of these!

Excellent machine at an awesome pricepoint, November 27, 2013

When I found myself in the market for a new computer, I was majorly overwhelmed and wasn’t too sure where to begin. I spent a few hours doing research on several websites before I just happened to come across this one here on Amazon. This machine is everything I needed and more.
The processor is fast – which is a must, and it come with a nice video card to boot. For me, this is a definite bonus since I love playing around with creating videos and gaming in my spare time. I never notice any lag time when loading, and the screen never freezes like my old one used to. There is nothing that I don’t love about the computer.
The price was right on point and much cheaper than comparable computers of other brands, and who doesn’t love a good deal? If I had to pick one downfall, I would say that Windows 8 leaves a bit to be desired but it’s nothing I couldn’t deal with. I did get tired of the OS after a bit and decided to upgrade and now everything is perfect for me. Glad that I made the investment and highly recommend this computer to anyone.
