Asus Desktop Computer Reviews 2014

To try out many hard-drives on the ASUS VivoPC VM40B-02 Desktop Computer all with distros of Linux while keeping Win 8 untouch...

I bought this to replace a GL10CS-DB762 Desktop Tower, so far it runs amazingly well. I typically run Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, & Illustrator) along with 3 - 24 HP Monitors while simultaneously streaming YouTube videos, running Microsoft Outlook and multiple Excel Spreadsheets. I have not noticed any slow down in performance running all of these tasks at the same time. I did immediately add a 2nd 1tb SSD Drive ( Model #WDS100T2X0E). My only concern is that they did not provide the screw (neither ASUS nor the HD Manufacturer) to secure the SN850X to the motherboard, fortunately I had one in my computer parts drawer. Other than that, I'm loving the i9 Processor and 32b RAM (2x16gb chips). My last 3 work computers have all been ASUS ROG and I've had amazing success with each one of them. I would highly recommend buying from BH Photo Video, they shipped my computer the same day and it arrived in perfect condition.

I have been using this monitor for almost a year now and haven't had a single issue. For context I have gone through 6 monitors and non of them were Asus. Every monitor I bought before cheep or expensive had issues that made them unusable. I was hesitant at first to buy the VG27AQ because of some bad reviews but after only buying monitors with better reviews and recommendations I decide to try it out and it was perfect. I use my computer for a lot of different things including video/photo editing, gaming, cad, YouTube and this monitor can do it all. Having 1440p was perfect for 27 inches and 165hz instead of 240hz was perfect since my computer couldn't maintain 240hz at 1440p on pervious monitors. I don't know why I was so skeptical of Asus when choosing my monitor, given that the first computer I built comprised of all Asus parts excluding the ssd and chassis. I feel like they get bad credit especially in reviews but I think it's just because they have so many products and the demand is so high. The best thing about this monitor is that it put my full confidence in Asus and I am planning on buying an Asus laptop with the same screen spec to pair up with my AMAZING monitor! Thank you Asus, you have made your place in my heart. P.S. If anyone was wondering what laptop I am referring to it's the new ROG Zephyrus G15 Ultra Slim rtx3080 and specifically moonlight white because OMG it looks so good!

I've seen a few reviews of this computer that are overly critical in my opinion. Since getting it, I've been impressed with the build quality, aesthetics, and performance. It rivals my desktop (i9-10850k + RTX 3090) for framerates and gaming experience, and the screen is one of the best I've ever seen in a laptop. Highly recommend this computer if you are looking for a high end laptop / desktop replacement.

I have had my computer since 2014. I have always and will always ONLY use HP ink. Dave

I purchased this cord to connect my New Mac Pro (2014) to connect to my New Asus 4k Monitor. It works fine!

Best desktop computer I had yet

Excellent compact desktop computer.

In 2014 I bought a 23-inch HP All-in-One desktop. After 10 years of daily use, I bought a 2024 model as I wanted a faster one, but the 2014 model still works as great as it did when new. The new model is extremely fast and I am very happy with it. I have confidence that it too will work great for 10 years and still be going strong.

It has all the things I like on a desktop. Enjoy the speed. To sum it up. I like the computer.
