Cheaper today than when I bought it.

I love the computer, it’s great. It’s now advertised a few hundred dollars cheaper than it was before when I bought it. I spoke to customer service and they said the restock few would be more than discount I would receive if I bought it today. Which seems kind of unfair. In less than 6 months it’s 400 dollars cheaper and nothing can be done about it.

Totally Worth It, Completely Satisfied!!!

When it’s hard to get a graphics card nowadays, It’s time to buy a prebuilt and I can say im completely satisfied with the Thermaltake Reactor 380.The small-form-factor 10 in by 10 in 18 in high takes up very little room compared to a medium-to-large tower sitting on a desk.Thermaltake did a great job with wire management looks clean and great build.My only complaint no RGB on the graphics card!Thermaltake Tower 100 Tempered Glass Mini Tower Computer ChassisASUS ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING AM4 Mini-itx AMD MotherboardAMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-core, 16-Thread ProcessorThermaltake ARGB 120mm High Efficiency Radiator CPU Cooler1TB Gen4 NVMe M.2ToughRAM RGB – 16GB 3600Mhz DDR4 RGBThermaltake Toughpower 750W 80 Plus Gold Power SupplyMSI – NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080

Amazing machine

Easy to setup and awesome case. Best looking/cleanest cabled machine I’ve had. Took an hour or two to setup and do all the updates and get the RGB preferences set. Had it running about 6 hours now quiet and smooth, getting max frames on ultra for most games. If you are willing to spend a bit more for a really nice build from visual and functional standpoint, also is pretty small for a tower this is it.

This system is exactly what I wanted and recommended if you’re looking for a plug and play system

Pros:- Well packed and protected (internally and externally)- Clear directions on what is needed to do upon opening- No bloatware in the Windows OS. No additional time needed to uninstall them.- Runs all of my games and programs- System arrived two days earlier than estimated- Compact system and footprint- Includes a baggy with additional power cables from the PSU and other extras- System uses well known branded partsCons:- A bit pricey- Didn’t come with a HDMI or DP cable- Didn’t come with a screwdriver- Power cable is a bit shortOverall Review:I waited and used this system for some time before leaving this review. Overall, this system is exactly what I wanted given the challenge of finding a GPU in today’s market. This system is a godsend and a day and night difference in performance compared to my poor 8+ year desktop PC. The system has expanding foam on the inside to protect the parts during delivery so you’ll need to take it out before power on the system. Took about 7 mins to get it done but I think it adds an experience where you get to do something technical like on the system to get it to power on. A screwdriver is required so be ready to have one on hand. Overall recommended if you’re looking for a system that’s pretty much plug and play and it can pretty much handle anything you toss at it.

Really great PC

This was my first gaming PC purchase and I don’t regret it. First off, great case and display. This PC looks amazing and performs exceptional as well. Multiple 4k titles with over 120 FPS, the 3080 is superb in this build combined with the extremely fast Ryzen 7 5800x. Amazing quality resolution and performance.I had to do multiple updates upon arrival and mess with a lot of the settings (especially in Nvidia Control panel and Geforce now), which was to be expected but now it is performing to my highest standards and I’m very pleased with my PC.I also want to give a shout out to the vendor for providing step by step instructions on setting up the PC out of the box. It really helped and I was able to get it running with only minor headaches as my learning curve got up to par. Overall very pleased.

Satisfied but initial setup was a little frustrating

Overall, very satisfied with this product. Please follow the setup instructions and check all the cables, before turning it on. I have seen where there was power issues and other graphic issues on several other reviews which is unfortunate especially given the cost of the system.I experienced similar boot-up issues and contacted support which they did call me back within 20 minutes of calling. The support person was very nice and knowledgable and hung in there as I was asking a lot of questions. We walked through re-seating the GPU and eventually was recommended to send the system back and get another. While I do give up that easily, I ended up re-seating the memory modules as well and upon further evaluation, the memory was not in the slots completely. Once I checked everything else it appears that the memory modules not being seated was the issue. System booted up and was gaming within the hour. Overall the system is a beast, very impressed with the benchmarks so far and the performance of the 3080 is quite impressive.Please also note that it does not come with peripherals so make sure you have a wired keyboard on hand to finish the setup, wireless simply will not work.

Incredible deal!

Ok, I’m going to preface this by saying that I never have a lot of money to burn when I upgrade my system.That being said, I got this for an incredible 50% off and I don’t regret it a single bit.I don’t need a 4K system. It’s just not something I can accommodate in my computer space nor can I really afford it. The RTX 3080 fit the bill for my 27″ 1080p monitor and the Ryzen 7 5800X is going to last a fair amount of time. I can upgrade it a bit and get around 7-10 years out of it.The temps can swing a bit. I’ve noticed that it can and will get to around 88c but then it will dip down to the 60’s almost immediately when the cooling kicks in. The design of the side panels is telling of their cheapness. It would have been more efficient cooling-wise to have the panels cut and designed to match the GPU’s fans. Instead, they’re offset and the fans blow into the glass that’s situated around 1 inch away.As such, the internal air cycle is expected to compensate, which flows from bottom to top to take advantage of hot air’s tendency to rise. Air is sucked into the side panel opposite the GPU, and there is also fan on the back panel pulling air from the back side of the motherboard opposite the CPU to help keep things cool. I found the wires for this fan to be hitting the fan blades and had to take the back panel off to resituate the wires to prevent this from happening. This could be the cause of many “this computer is too loud” reviews.All in all, this is a great rig for the price I paid. 50% off was nuts and it does what I need it to do. If you want a great 1080p rig, this is it. If you want to dive into 4K, go with a rig that has a 40 series GPU.

Amazing Gaming rig but not without it’s flaws

I will start by saying that this PC is a fantastic game machine. Games play effortlessly on Ultra setting and 4k. I’ve been playing Halo and a few other games without any noticeable drops in framerate. The computer came so well packed and put together, I’m very impressed with it. Mine came with an ASUS B550-I and an MSI 3080.The computer does have some drawback. First off, the price is probably ~$800 more than what it’s worth but, it’s the dumb world we live in because of the graphic card market. The fans are a bit loud so I’ve been trying to tweak the bios to make it a bit quieter. I’ve also experience some slowdowns on performance but I attribute that to the initial download and upgrade of all the software.If you have the cash and are in the market for a fantastic gaming rig, this is beautiful looking and built to game like a boss. Aside from the minor issues, I highly recommend it.

You get what you pay for here

Performance-wise, it works just as intended. You get what you pay for with this graphics card, and AMD has really caught up to Intel with their processors. It has more expensive parts than are necessary for this level of performance, but the bonus is that everything is very compatible. This is also an expected sacrifice when buying prebuilt.Out of the package, the bottom fan (Just above the power supply) did not work. This was fixed by unscrewing the back panel and simply reconnecting the male and female wires — those probably unhooked themselves during the shipping process, so that might not be Thermaltake’s fault.Pros:- The RGB is VERY controllable. The PC generously gives you the option to install the RGB control software as well, so it cannot be determined as bloatware.- On that note, no bloatware is installed with this PC. I’m glad I didn’t have to spend up to an hour uninstalling programs.Cons:- The ASUS motherboard’s Bluetooth module is very weak on its own — none of my Bluetooth devices work from more than 3 feet away. I found out online that the Wi-Fi antenna that comes with the device actually functions as a Bluetooth radio as well, and after connecting it, my devices receive its Bluetooth signal just fine.
