And I'm here with a Lenovo Legion Tower too... But from Best Buy. So far though it isn't bad for such a system tho the Cpu cooling isn't great and the mb firmware is an oof and there's single channel ram and the PSU is a mixed bag (400 W wtf, but it's a 80+ Gold) but the case is very nice and filled to the brim with airflow, lighting is nice for the showiness, the motherboard doesn't look like shit, there's tempered glass, yeah the case is good lol. The GPU currently doesn't look bad too, and the Cpu cooler, at least is pretty quiet for such a cooler, it's so much less noisier than the jet engine of my now not mine laptop. Or many prebuilts. Comparing to this computer in the video, it has its issues indeed, but the motherboard seems to be a standard ATX motherboard and everything else about it... is the same. It may be crud but it is one of the most upgradable OEM PCs, which is rare. Just like dual channel ram ugh. And the case, once again, isn't bad, it's got also areas to stuff cables too, so you can use non modular PSUs in the future without pain. So that's my mini first impression "review," now I need to see if Linux and games run well on it.

Hello, this is in reference to the non-vesa monitor. Something I recently learned is there are mounting adaptors available for non-vesa monitors. It's not the most ideal solution, but if you bought a non-vesa monitor it's a great solution for being able to mount it. Just search non-vesa mount adaptor and you'll get a few. For my use case, it was hugely worth it.

12GB of RAM is always BS in my book. Yes you loose some performance vs true dual ch (it's technically in flex mode with 8GB and 4GB sticks) but that's minor and the thing is really what's the cost difference between a 4GB stick and an 8GB stick for a company like HP? 10 bucks? Maybe 15 bucks? Just put 16GB in it!

12GB of ram isn't actually dual channel since the DIMM sizes are miss-matched. IIRC this is an intel specific feature called FLEX mode, which basically means that your ram will run in dual channel mode up until 8GB (2*4GB), any ram address allocation after will be done in single channel. YMMV though

A tip from someone who learned touch typing back in the day: Get yourself one of the cheap keyboards with a built in touch pad on the right. I use the QK-t288. I bought expensive cherry keyboards with a trackball but they are in storage now. Especially if you have a main pc in your living room as your main system and use your pc from your couch. This cheap little keyboard is only $20 bucks or so and has some multimedia buttons on top of the touchpad. Wired keyboards are also much better for a couple of reasons. Just use a usb extender from your main pc and attach a decent usb 3.0 hub.

I bought a gaming laptop from Costco and was pleasantly surprised. There is also def something to be said for Costco's customer service. Buying from them gave me an extra year of warranty which came in handy when at almost exactly a year the keyboard on my laptop stopped working. Laptop got fixed and sent back to me, only to have the keyboard stop working again almost a week later. Took it back to them and they ended up swapping out the laptop for a new one. Still have that particular laptop and it's still going strong 4 years later.
