Good computer replacing my 10 yr old one.Sound board on the motherboard was dead on arrival. So were the front mic and headphone jacks. They offered me a replacement USB sound board device. That didn't work well either. I bought and installed a sound board. It was a hassle but I didn't want the hassle of returning it and getting something worse yet. Sound board I put in works. I just needed to get up and running in the midst of tax season.  I'm not a gamer.I have it working, albeit a disappointment.  It is a good performer for what I do.
