Wonderful screen and lasts long!

They last a long long time! However they can cause bubbles if you hit your phone against a tool in your backpack or something. Be sure to keep it covered and protected with a phone case. Lesson learned! Which reminds me. I need a new one asap to replace it in due time.

I love these cases so much! They protect my phone from damage! I bought cover protection for the screen too. I dropped my cell a few times and no damage at all. Be sure to clean the inside and outside with Lysol or rubbing alcohol to remove germs from time to time. it really does it's a duty to protect your smartphone from serious damage. This really works well.

Great DVD Slim!
on March 17, 2020
Posted by: Sk8er1337
Verified Purchase:Yes
It is great! Works good with Blu Ray DVDs and burn CDS well. I really do rather internal DVD drives but my tower doesn't support it and this is where it comes in play. I hope Best Buy considers stocking better brands instead of LG brands. I heard other brands last better and longer. I had no problem with the DVD Blu Ray Slim. Hope there will be other brands in the later future.

Great headset but..
on March 17, 2020
Posted by: Sk8er1337
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great headset! It has the MOST comfortable ear muffs on it. I never felt so comfortable wearing this. However, the microphone is really really crap. It broke on me two times. This is an older version. They stopped rolling drivers for this. I highly recommend getting the other versions they might be way better. They have good sound but it's hardly loud to me in my opinion compared to the Corsair brand.

Wonderful motherboard and lasts long
on March 17, 2020
Posted by: Sk8er1337
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wonderful motherboard but can be an issue if you don't update bios but don't update if it's not broken. Be aware that this motherboard has tons of features. Be sure to read the manual before purchasing this motherboard. Match the ram too. This motherboard behaves strange when using non-QVL memory ram. I was told my ASUS it's best to match it because they test it but everyone knows they cannot test every ram in the market. There seem to be voltage changes if you use different ram. It is very picky so I recommend use matching ram that fits the processor and follow the ram specs on the motherboard if you don't overclock much or so. I miss the sabertooth motherboards. I just don't like thermal blocking the battery though if you needed to reset bios. I had a Sabertooth z77 that lasted 7 years. Such a great motherboard. Barely had dust!

Good Thermal if needed..
on March 17, 2020
Posted by: Sk8er1337
Verified Purchase:Yes
I still highly recommend other brands besides this. This works well though. Temps are great on my processor. I still think there are better thermals out there I rather use. I like the thermals that come with the Corsair coolers that are already applied. They have better contact and control for heat use. I believe it's the same stuff they use for airplanes. Forgot what they are called. However Corsair thermal is handy. Be sure to look for non-conductive thermal to prevent the risk of making a mistake on your motherboard. I rather those so it's less risker than ruining your motherboard.

They are great for desktop with low watts!
on March 17, 2020
Posted by: Sk8er1337
Verified Purchase:Yes
I don't normally purchase 10-watt speakers. I like it louder. But I am not allowed to have anything too loud where I live and I intend to move elsewhere and purchase a surround sound speaker but this is good enough and loud. It's quite loud and has good sound. I like it a lot. I wish there was a software to download for these speakers to adjust the bass and more but it does have a good thump to it. I recommend it.

Works great! Use for music and PC gaming.

Posted by: Sk8er1337
Verified Purchase:Yes
I hope Corsair makes a new one. Because I still think their microphones aren't that up to par but it works. The sound overall is amazing. You use the application software you download called iCue. It gives you a chance to set surround 1.7 stereo sound. You can hear clarity! I can hear footsteps with these headsets in Call of Duty games which helped my gaming skills. I couldn't hear anything that close wearing SteelSeries. Don't get me wrong I like SteelSeries but they seem to fail sometime depending what product I pick. I would either pick Corsair or SteelSeries but Corsair is my first choice. I hope they continue to improve their design more and improvise their microphone abilities to a better stronger design. This won't break the bank if you can afford it. Get it today! You won't regret it!

great computer for machine learning scientist
By HungPhan from Iowa
The computer so far runs good for me. Good keyboard, mouse and side panel. However, I am a little bit disappointed about the wifi connection. The wifi adapter runs fine in windows but doesn’t run in ubuntu so I need to use the cable connection.
The most important part for me is the zotac rtx 2080 ti. i have bought a hp omen obelisk with rtx 2080. When I compare them for tensorflow neural machine translation, the rtx 2080 ti is about 20% faster than the one of hp omen. Plus, it can run the original tutorial of data in tensorflow, which required 1024 units per layer, batch size 128 and 4 layers for each encoder and decoder model. The hp omen can only run at 512 units per layer, it.throws resourceexhausted error in 1024 units. In total, the hp omen requires 66 hours to complete training of 4.5 millions like while the ibuypower takes 50 hours.
If you are a computer scientist who likes deep learning but you are not able to buy a workstation with over 5000$, this ibuypower may be the good computer for you

yes it's a great computer for a scientist but..

The moot point is did you little know that you could have built an i7 9700k for way less than 1,000 dollars? You got ripped off. You can easily build a system for just 700 dollars to 800 dollars max including the case. It would be way less what you spend. The rest are way affordable from 100 bucks and less depending what components you need besides an expensive graphics card lol. Next time do a Price Match or custom build it which is way easier. Bazinga!
