I just picked this up at my local best buy. They had in stock and ready to go, I also picked up an additional 2 TB hard drive as this one only had the 1 TB SSD installed. When I got it home it was well packed and secured. It also included a gamers keyboard and mouse. As I already have a higher end Keyboard and Mouse I will be using those instead. It was easy to find and install the 3.5 inch hard drive mount on the non glass side of the unit. Note: I also had to buy a SATA cable with hard drive not included. The 2TB hard drive was easy to mount but the SATA cable was a little difficult to plug in because of the location of the port but I was able to get it installed. I would have given a 5 star if not for the sloppy cable management under the metal cover. All the wires were loose and just haphazardly stuffed in. I had to untangle them and locate my plugs and had a difficult time closing up the case because of this.
I am having problems getting my serial numbers off off the Video card which appears to be an ASUS card to submit for warranty information and will probably need to take it out.
Other than that it was well packaged and once my new HD was installed it fired right up. The RGB case lights are nice. The computer went through start up no problem and appears to be running pretty quickly. Due to my location and internet service I cannot fully review its gaming speeds as I am currently downloading all my games.
I am running Dual monitors and they were easy to connect and were easily recognized by the video card.
One other thing I need to confirm and verify is online it stated it came with Battlefield 5, Anthem and Call of Duty Black Ops 4 digital download bundles free with purchase of qualifying RTX 2080 cards. I expected to find digital download cards in the packaging but there were none, I do not know if this is an I buypower promotion, Nvidia Graphics card promotion or a best buy promotion it does not clearly state how to claim. I will be following up with best buy on my next visit.
I am excited and looking forward to running and testing this system.

Other than the long 8 hr set time stated in instructions I set this to the plastic of my vehicles dashboard. It holds a Samsung Galaxy S7 with no issues, it is stable and secure. Does what it states. Also comes with spare adhesive disc in case you want to move.

Game update
February 1, 2019
If your trying to redeem Battlefield 5 and Anthem, the redeem codes should have been on the bottom of the computer purchase receipt, I had to contact Best buy support because mine did not have it. Best buy contacted me the next day with the redemption codes. You will need to download GeForce experience from invidia.com and have an original account to download. Hope this helps anyone having difficulties.
Thanks Best buy customer support for all your assistance.

how much ram can it hold 32 or 63 gig

I am currently running 4 sticks of 8 gig with no issues may be able to run more, you should look up your motherboard.

i thought a free game DL came with the purchase im sure iv'e must have read it wrong but jw if i missed sumtin or did it come with thanks either way

If you purchased during the promotional period the game download should have been included on the bottom of your receipt. If not email customer support with a copy of your receipt and if it was purchased during said promotional period the should get you a download code.

How many monitors can be connected through HDMI?

The graphics card has 1 HDMI and 2 display ports, I am running 2 monitors using one of each port.

Just received one of these as a gift, was curious how I obtain the free game/games?

Battlefield V and anthem apparently are redeemed somehow at nvidea site, still working on this. Black ops 4 redemption code should have been emailed to you by best buy or was included on the bottom of the purchase receipt.
