I'm not a gamer, but I did want a PC with a good graphics card to handle heavy image editing. This seemed to be a good deal, as it only cost maybe $100 more than a top of the line business PC and has a dedicated graphics card, so I picked it up. I wasn't disappointed. My image editing programs run silky smooth.The machine itself was very plug and play, and I was through the windows updates and had my programs installed in a few hours. For anyone used to silent business models, this does have a constant quiet hum from the internal fans, but it's soft enough that your A/C running covers it up. I initially refused to buy a system with these RGB lights (I'm not a teenage boy), but if you want a decent graphics card, you're pretty much stuck with them. You need to switch them off with the included remote every time you boot up the PC. Note the included mouse and keyboard are also "gamer" items and therefore ridiculous-looking, so you'll want to save your old ones.Overall, I'm quite happy. Excellent performance, and I'll forgive the blazing "gamer" colors as the price is extremely good.
