Ps important thing to know they made a more common design for the r16 than the previous generations due to low airflow and wasted space due to tilted design even if if the last generatons look good its not good for any airflow and could have heat problems

This product is of decent quality and in line with the prices of the components inside but the processor included suffers from being one of those effected by recent intel hardware issues

If you are the kind of person who buys a desktop every 46 years and doesn’t want to even be in the same zip code as an rma the price drop down to 1600 isn’t really enough to take on the chance of getting a lemon
