Asus Essentio CG5290-BP007

Won't burn a hole in your pocket. Phenomenonal functioning in day to day software as well as an excellent 3-D gaming desktop

The motherboard and the power supply fail to support upgrades. No Blu-ray drive

: It surely offers one of the best gaming features with killer graphics. It is also one of the fastest gaming PC’s on the shelves at the moment. Unlike its boutique competitors it surely lacks a lot in the glamour department but that’s the least they...

Cost

GPU didn't have case retention clip installed (was missing) This caused the GPU to fallout during shipping and damage the GPU and a capacitor on the motherboard. (was able to repair in house) ; Power supply has a motherboard standoff inside of it,...

This computer ran everything i put at it with the highest setting with 60 fps

It literally froze and shutdown every other time i used it. Also sometimes it wouldnt show any picture because of a bad graphics card. Wouldnt turn on about 50% of the time after the first day

Extremely fast and responsive. Case is large and has a great deal of airspace. Computer is built for gaming. Computer comes with software that can assist you in overclocking, modifying power settings and customization

Power supply is only 500w w/ a single rail. CPU fan doesn't keep the processor below 57°C. The 9 Gigs of RAM takes all six RAM slots. Video card seating problems are common

Absolutely nothing

Took 8 days when it said 1-3 buisness days ; Everything went wrong on arrival. broken heatsink, and broken slot for the the GFX card. HORRRIBLE JUST COMPLETE HORRIBLE

Running games on max with no problems so far. some have complained about the psu but so far so good. There is a cpu power up which will over clock u to 2.93 ghz, Which is great for gaming

Graphics card popped out of its place during set up, had to turn system off and reposition it. HUGE CASE ! personally i didnt have any problems fitting it on my desk, although i see how others would. My only real complaint with this system is that i...

This is without a doubt the best computer for the money ; I looked for three weeks, studied, researched, and found this the best. Think about it i7 - 920 (Fast), 9 GB Memory (High, more than I need), a great video card, and 64 -bit ; I keep a computer...

The only con I can think of is that Windows 7 would be nice to have, but Vista x64 with all the updates is close and it still has email incorporated into it. Which is what I like

It arrived in a box at my house, and wasn't stolen

Video would come out only randomly. It wasn't packaged very well so I can only assume that it was damaged during shipping ; Upon inspection of the desktop noticed that the PCI port the video card is inserted into was damaged. Most likely do to whoever...

Excellent Value for parts received. If it survives shipping, it is a great all powerful machine. Like the wizard of OZ RAm is DDR3 1333mhz 5 slots for ram

U*S Delivery. 1 DOA out of three purchased ; price was better a week ago 12/2010 ; I am pretty sure the temp help at the"delivery Service provider trashed the 2nd one I ordered. Everyone had an unseated video card. I have to believe most of these...

OEM Rampage II Gene motherboard and great deal on the parts; Delta 500w PSU not too bad

Motherboard lacks SLI and RAID capability in BIOS; very poor cooling in the case; very poor assembly
