I am so GLAD I bought this. This actually helps PC gaming. It protects my PC from surge accidents and can tell me if the house has a bad electric ground issue. It has protected my PC a few times. I hope this lasts forever. Good thing this has insurance! Recommended!

Great app for streaming needs!

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's actually great and I like the voice feature how you can talk to it and ask what you need. It is a bit different than the standard one but it's worth it! Get it today! You won't be disappointed! I wish Roku had browsers involved too but it's not powerful as a desktop yet today. Maybe one day they will. I heard ChromeCast has browsers but the processors in these devices aren't that strong to enable browsing streaming features.

Good Monitor and quality!

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's a great monitor for gaming. I recommend looking at other ASUS monitors though because I hear issues on this monitor from time to time. I have no issues besides trying to get Windows 10 recognize this product and it keeps showing Generic PnP in device manager which is annoying. There are better 144hz monitors out there. Asus isn't bad but I steer clear from this one if you want good Free Sync monitors. I never have problems for PC gaming though!

A Champion for PC gaming and more!

Verified Purchase:Yes
This processor runs amazing. I didn't bother to overclock it and I know it can run at least 4.9ghz or 5ghz. I didn't wanna risk the life span of this processor. I would LOVE to overclock it but I rather not. It runs flawlessly with Windows 10 and PC gaming. Has six cores and twelve hyper-threads that can dominate anything you need running in the background or if you wanna multi-task. Such a great processor. Rated high benchmarking score in User benchmark too. I was blown away at how my graphics look with Ultra settings. I love this processor. It has been several years and this is my first i7 processor. I fell in love with its performance! It's the best. I recommend getting it unless you wanna get an i7 9700k Which performs well good and stronger but it lacks hyperthreading but your choice in the end! This processor has the eye of the tiger!

Great cooler and lasts forever!

I used to own Corsair H100i cooler and it lasted me for 5 years or longer. It got to a point where I wanted a better cooler. I could have re-applied thermal to save money but I like how it already comes with a thermal. I wanted something newer and stronger and better tubing so thus I bought the H100iv2. I want the PRO RGB version. Maybe my next upgrade I will someday. I recommend this cooler if you wanna overclock your computer. It keeps the temps cool. I overclocked my processor i5 3570k to 4.4ghz auto volts and temps never go beyond 50c at all. Great temps!

Good Headphones

I enjoyed those headphones they have to surround sound but my mic broke in time. I had to replace it. Keep an eye on the mic. They are possibly known to overheat and break. Read about it on forums. Doesn't mean it'll happen to you. It's a good thing Corsair has a good RMA process.

Great water cooler
By Dawdaw
This is a really good cooler, it keeps my i7-8700k at around 20c idle.

20c idle? What about load temps?
December 29, 2018
Idle is great but load temps are important! I'd wanna know the load temps on this puppy!

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!
