I got what I paid for...

Bought this PC as a refurb (scratch and dent) at what I thought was a excellent price. Turns out I got what I paid for

Opened box, PC case has several scuff marks and front bezel was loose. No big deal to me. But upon trying to power it on, it won't boot. Says insert boot media or select proper boot device and press a key. Went to BIOS and tried to swap devices but...

Was worried, but Great

Quick install, works great. Got this after a very substantial price drop deal on Newegg. Computer is powerful and quiet. Haven't had any overheating issues, and haven't had any terrible issues pop-up ; Was pleasantly surprised that it came with OS on...

Several very adament negative reviews for this product made me feel like i was really rolling the dice. Through forums, confirmed that people got this with OS on HDD, confirmed overheating, confirmed features randomly missing/added - no wireless, etc ;...

Refurbished CG840

I got in contact with ASUS at first to try and find out what was going on and how to access things. Online chat was very rude, phone chat was not but was not helpful as they said 'thats not the way it came from us, we cant help you' I would have liked...

Great computer, components are awesome. No overheating issues, beast of a machine (And yes it has a 660 in it, which is a great card)

The con, well its a pretty big one. The PC has 2 HDD's (3tb and a 128gb ssd) One would think that the SSD would have the OS on it and the 3tb would have the SystemRestore partition. This is not the case. The OS and SystemRestore partition are the the...

Do not buy it!

Big HDD

They sell used to sell this one and say that it has a gtx 680 inside when this has only a 660 inside. Now they seem to have fixed it but i am almost sure that there is another scam somewhere. DO NOT BUY IT THIS IS A SCAM
