Verified Purchase:Yes
I was very excited when this rig arrived, but when I opened it I became deeply disappointed. Only one PCI-e 16x slot, why two RAM slots, and it has a i7-6700 sticker on it? I went back to the store and it turns out that these specs are right in the Best Buy system, it's the site that has been lying to us.
These discrepancies may sound trivial to some, but future proofing becomes more expensive. Rather than buying a second gtx 1080 down the road for cheap you'll have to buy a newer card. 2x16gb ram are vastly more expensive than 2x8gb. 6700 vs 7700, the performance is currently the same in gaming but future driver updates may change that but the one feature I was looking forward to was the 10-bit color support (better visuals) and lastly it's the latest and almost the greatest so yeah I wanted the 7700.
With that said, this is a great rig for the price(1449 on sale) to those that just want to set it up and not concern themselves about upgrades. As for me this was a deal breaker. Rather than paying more for these specs I'll revisit my PC building days and I'll make the magic happen.

Where can I get the detailed spec on this? It just shows the basic stuff not the in depth information of the hardwares. Like who made it and stuff.
You sound like me, and if I were me I would not buy this rig. I think the gtx 1080 was bigger that the motherboard, it just looked pitiful. If your looking for more in depth specs than I'm assuming you know your way around a pc and I would recommend building your own or upping your budget.
