Good value for the money , gets good fps if you throw in a decent gpu in most games at epic or ultra , nice and noisey though with stock fan and puny little PSU working it's best. Fortunately did not receive a prodesk 600 like the other comment but the motherboard does not use ddr3 as the description says instead uses ddr4 which is better, came in dual channel as well, but I was expecting ddr3 when I bought it and only found out after I googled the elite desk on HP's website. Hope this helps anyone looking into this , socket is 1151 :)
