I dislike that you request a review a week after I received it! I haven't even got it completely programed! It started up okay, it's a little noisy at first, but it improves as it warms up. It has a decent response loading information. But I can't tell you anymore than that. I have not tried games, movies or anything else yet. You might want to wait 6 weeks or even more it you want an honest report. I think it will game alright, and even play movies. But I need way more time, so I can actually try those features. If you contact me in a month, I will give you better than 3 stars if the machine performs well. Thank you
