The item arrived in good packaging, which should've prevented any damage during shipping.It arrived very clean, which was surprising. There wasn't any dust anywhere within the system.After reading other reviews, I thought I would be best to reapply thermal paste just to be safe, but it seems like it wasn't necessary since there was a good amount on the heatsink and the CPU. Since the heatsink was already off, figured I might as well clean it up and apply some new paste anyways.After cleaning off the paste from the CPU, I was surprised to see that the CPU was different than the one listed. Instead of a 2400GE, it was a 2400G, which is an upgrade, unless you really need that lower TDP.Other notables:- An m.2 SSD was installed, which left the SATA caddy open for more storage- 1 x 8GB DDR4 ram is installed, leaving one extra slot for upgrade- Flex I/O port was not used on mine, which meant I only had 2 x DisplayPorts on the rear. Would've been nice to have an HDMI port, but it is what it is.Still pretty early to tell if this budget system will hold up, but so far, it's doing great what I need it to do.
