Perfect for the price

This PC is just great for its price. Sure, you can spend thousands upon thousands to buy a top-of-the-line model, but unless you're a professional gamer you won't notice much of a difference. Be sure to buy additional 8GB DDR4 RAM: (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KPYXR4M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). It's easy to install (find a video online if you need help). , but all you have to do is open the computer, press the tabs in the open slot, insert it, and close the computer case). It will greatly improve the overall experience and only costs $41.99. Also, you may need an external GAMING hard drive. Be sure to buy a solid state drive (SSD) with a USB-c connector. The GAME DISC lets you play much, much faster than your computer's built-in hard drive. Here's the one I bought: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083GHGFV7/ref=twister_B09BGJR5M8?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Sorry, this one costs $389.99. It's worth it. Game downloads for games like Call of Duty (all) are over 100GB so you can download 10-15 of these high data games and play without lag. I can't tell if other external drives work well or not. I know SSD games work fine. Possibly others too. If that's beyond your budget, you can always try one of these: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-1TB-Extreme-Portable-SDSSDE61-1T00-G25/dp/B08GTYFC37/ref=sr_1_5?dchild. =1&keywords=gaming+external+ssd&qid=1629987544&refinements=p_n_feature_browse-bin%3A23487835011&rnid=23487833011&s=pc&sr=1-5 This is a great hard drive from 500GB ($87.99) to 5TB ($699.99). It all depends on what your budget is, what speeds you're used to, and how many games you're going to download.
