It's funny, computer hardware slowly ended up like any other type of product. A focus on looks, marketing, flashy colors, etc. Who would have thought that what used to be one the most nerdy and obscure hobbies would end up like this.

It's been going on since the 90's....so yeah definitely slow.
I never thought is was going to be like this.
I like making them look flashy.

About this PC...
For $800 for a pre-built this definitely isn't bad spec wise.....for a pre-built.
They used decent parts.
I think it'll look good for the average PC buyer that is inclined to play games.
The way I see it this is only a $150 build fee.
That's fair imo.

It has intake vents on the right side panel where those three fans suck air.

And that is my main issue with this PC.
They could have put something on those fans to cover them up.

NOTE TO CASE MAKERS.
How a bout those fans flipped to the front with the aesthetic side of the fan is seen through that nice mesh pattern you have on the back with a smaller glass panel that focuses on the looks of the main components.

And FFS no more bland memory...spice that shit up.

Just put some dust filters which attach via magnets.

The worst thing about RAM in this one seems to be that it has only one stick.
