Understand what you’re buying!
I bought this computer as a Xmas present in 2023 for my 11 year old son that loves to game and at the time of this writing, we had it for 6 months. I had spent 2 weeks doing heavy research before settling on this computer and here are a few notes to help you decide if it’s worth it for you.1: There is an included WiFi and Bluetooth adapter but I thought it was built into the computer and not usb thumb drives that you have plug in on the top of the computer. It comes in a small bag and keep a careful eye out for it.2: After a few months of use, we encountered a strange error that wouldn’t go past the OEM symbol after turning on the computer. One time it did lead me to a black screen showing you options for example go into safe mode. If this happens to you, don’t bother doing anything and contact STG and they will send you a YouTube video to help you. It was a simple fix that you can easily do on your own and I appreciate the OEM having that fix readily available.3. STG actually has amazing support staff and they do care about customer satisfaction. Had it not been for that, my computer would be in a landfill and I would have wrote a bad review.4. For the price and specs, don’t expect the best gaming performance but it does handle games like Minecraft and Roblox with ease but can be sluggish from time to time.5. Perfect to watch Netflix or YouTube.6. Have patience and set your expectations towards something in the middle.Would I buy it again? Short answer is yes and I will buy from this company again. Is it perfect, no but at the price for performance it is a good purchase.

Baby’s First Gaming PC
I normally don’t post reviews, but I wanted to share my experiences with anyone considering purchasing this PC. I bought this because I wanted to get my feet wet in the world of PC gaming but didn’t want to pay $600+ building a gaming PC when I already have a console to play most current AAA games on. Just seemed like a waste of money. So when I found this and saw the price it was basically a no-brainer. I’ve had this PC for almost three weeks now and I love it! Of course I use it mostly to play games and for the games I play, I’ve had no issues with performance which honestly surprised me (keep in mind I have one of the lower-end models). Now, keep your expectations realistic: it definitely won’t be running games like Starfield in 60fps on high settings (not that I was expecting it to), but for games like Overwatch, Apex, Fortnite, & Minecraft? It runs these smoothly with minimal/no issues (after adjusting some settings).I use it for streaming gameplay on YouTube as well and again: zero issues so far. So if you’re like me and don’t have the time or budget to spend scavenging for PC parts then I definitely recommend getting this, it’s well worth the price and was a good gateway into becoming familiar with PC parts and such. 🙂 Also: it comes with a WiFi adapter, which you’ll need if you don’t have your computer hooked up to an Ethernet cable. I’ve seen a lot of reviews saying the adapter stopped working or was faulty, but thankfully the one I received is still going strong and doesn’t have issues with connectivity or going in and out. Also, the peripherals that come with the PC (the keyboard/mouse) are OK… they light up and look cool but you’ll definitely want to upgrade them at some point. Overall though, I definitely recommend this product!Rating: 4.5/5

Great Gaming PC for the Price
I was very skeptical about buying this PC. Most gaming PC’s are super expensive and cost well over $1000. Granted I did not buy this PC to steam or do some crazy gaming, I bought it to play World of Warcraft. I runs WoW flawlessly, even in the most crowded areas I am still running between 60-80 fps and in most cases I am around 90-100 fps. I have had some minor issues with the keyboard doing some weird stuff but I easily fixed it. Getting all the settings dialed in the way I wanted them took a little bit, but it was not that bad at all. The fans keep the CPU running cool and this thing is on all the time.Setup was super easy and honestly its a beautiful device. I love that I can control the color setting. I highly recommend purchasing this PC if you want to do light gaming.

Hade no WiFi
It’s a good pc but when I got it the WiFi didn’t work even when I got a WiFi adapter so I got a replacement and we’ll see if this one has WiFi

RX 550
For the price and what you get I’m pretty happy with it. It wasn’t without its hiccups in set up and obvious cheaper components like the network card I highly recommend you hardwire this of and wifi will drop often with the external wifi card part of other issues I bumped into are normal windows 10 bugs or glitches with the OS if you look up some YouTube vids you’ll find easy fixes for them. If this is your first PC I would definitely recommend its a good starter with a esthetic look to it. The RGB looks nice I’m able to run all titles I enjoy playing however given that this is a budget system you do need to be realistic. For example warzone will need to run at all low settings to run close to 60 fps however playing some bo3 customs, dark and darker, any emulated titles or indie titles can typically run medium or higher.

Good if you wanna upgrade from scratch.
So let me just say for a gaming PC $400 is gonna be dirt cheap. And you get what you pay for. Which is what I did, and with digging through every review most are giving more hopes for it than they should have expected. Here’s a few things you need to know, the parts that are inside of it are old and can not be upgraded unless you buy a whole new motherboard. Luckily they aren’t much but with that being said you have to start from scratch. Pay $400 for a temporary gaming PC then upgrade the parts with $800 minimum. All in all not too bad for someone who wants a project like myself. But if you’re trying to buy this without upgrading what so ever just know the wifi connection does drop TERRIBLY. The day I pulled mine out the box and plugged it in with a LAN cable it still dropped connection. But all in all for a beginner gaming Pc that will need upgrades it’s pretty nice!
