I was happy with this device to no longer pay Brighthouse rental for their used questionable equipment. The speed is great and it is ready for higher speeds. Unfortunately, the wireless connection is not as good as it could be with other routers. I would recommend purchasing a separate cable modem and router than this combo, so that you can upgrade the one you need which will typically be the router without scrapping the whole thing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The price is perfect when purchasing a new computer. I normally would not purchase Office, but at this price, with unlimited cloud storage with One Drive, you might be a fool not to get it.

I would rate as 5, but this is a re-branded Dynex model that failed for me so I purchased this one. I prefer purchasing at Best Buy than Tiger Direct and this is the only 3.0 USB Hub they have. :-(

I recently purchased this computer to be a replacement for my Samsung 27 AIO that I recently sold on Amazon.com. The screen is good, but I was expecting IPS display quality. The fan made too much noise at various times. This might have been a great computer 2 years ago, but there are better for the money available at Best Buy.

Pros: Touchscreen IPS display that is almost identical to the HP that is selling for $300 more. This computer performs great and even better when you get rid of McAffee.
Cons: Touching the screen leaves fingerprints that are noticeable when the screen is off. So just don't touch the screen.

Was frustrated waiting for Windows 8 to update before allowing me to install Windows 8.1. That was one day wasted. I think it is stupid to sell an Intel core processor machine with less than 8gb of RAM. I bought an 8gb chip at Best Buy, but it would not boot. I took it out, attempted to update the BIOS and other hardware drivers and then re-installed the RAM. My computer came up, but it was as if the RAM wasn't on the computer as it still only shows 4gb. I think I am going with a Chromebox and a fancy monitor.
I also don't like the small 0 button on the number pad. I hit the right button most of the time

Gaming?

could i play saints row 3 or payday 2 at a good frame rate(30-60fps) on this?
Probably not unless you upgrade the RAM by adding an 8 GB chip. Just be careful which you buy because I bought one from Best Buy that did not work. The BIOS is out dated out of the box.
