  • Summary: Great!
  • Comment: I've owned this computer and used it every day for 3 months. It was a great deal, fast, plays any game i have just fine, and has room to grow. The case is awesome! having everything on the top like that is pretty handy.
    The only thing that i'd fix is the trouble of replacing the power supply myself, where there's lots of goodies that need power, theres power CORDS running into every crack and i'd hafta disassemble the whole thing to get it out, but i replaced the video card with an HIS Radeon hd 5850 1GB and it runs no prob with the stock 500w powersupply.

  • Summary: Up in flames - literally
  • Comment: Received the computer super fast from Amazon. It lasted 5 days, then POP. I thought it was the under powered PSU. I tried to replace it myself with a beefier one, computer still didn't turn on. So I sent it off to Gateway to get repaired. They sent it back in about 15 days and said they replaced the motherboard AND the graphics card - nothing about the PSU. I set it up, plugged it in then the graphics card literally had flames coming out of it! I quickly pulled the plug. Not worth the headache... sending it back for a refund.
