Desktop Computer Gaming I7 Ssd

This is a review for i7-9700, 500GB SSD, 16 GB RAM, no GPU version. This is an ideal workstation for professional applications that do not require the added cost of a GPU. Of course, this is configured to simplify adding a GPU at at later time, if needed for graphics-intensive work or gaming. It comes equipped with a beefy power supply and easy, no-tool access to the ample interior--with generous additional bays and connectors--which simply the process. As equipped, this makes a fantastic uber-desktop for handling MS office software, Adobe PDF, internet use, watching videos (and light editing), recording and mixing audio using Cubase or other DAW. It is exceptionally well made, using top quality parts. Owing to the heavy duty power supply and the SSD, this PC is nearly silent. The CPU (i7-9700) is a top performer for desktop office and audio tasks, and the included 16 GB RAM is more than enough to speed up workflow. The particular PCIe M.2 SSD is a high performance beast! Cubase and other software load quickly and this tower boots up unbelievably fast. HP support is exceptional, if you ever need it. One big advantage of getting a workstation model like this as opposed to a standard desktop, is that the 3-year onsite warranty and support are included in the price of the workstation. No added fees for upgraded warranty. B & H staff is consistently awesome at every stage--pre-ordering advice, suggesting upgraded components, website ordering, in-store pickup and Guest Technical Services. I used the onsite Guest Tech Services staff at the B & H store to install a secondary internal SSD that I purchased at the same time as this workstation. They were fast, professional, friendly, and extremely reasonably priced.

Using this as a second SSD in my gaming desktop for extra file storage. It's a quick, reliable SSD. No complaints here!

Allowed me to easily mount an SSD drive in a an older Dell desktop computer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This light is a good addition to my desktop computer and for gaming. I like that it’s dual sided and the color that is projecting makes it really nice. The colors are vibrant and not dull.

I built a desktop gaming computer about 10 years ago. Never had a camera connected to it. Throughout the pandemic, I've used my personal cell phone to do Zoom and Skype video calls. The small screen on the cell phone has made this challenging, especially for online cello lessons. The C920s mounted easily to my 22 monitor. I connected C920s directly to my USB port on the back of my desktop. I fired up the Zoom application and the audio and video worked perfectly without any setup or modifications. Can't complain at all.

It might not score as high on benchmarks but for every day desktop and gaming use, it's just as snappy as my other computer that uses a 5600X. Bonus that this 5600G is less expensive and includes onboard graphics if my GPU ever goes out.

This processor has been great for day to day work. I use this process on my desktop computer that triples as a server and sometimes gaming. While I do not have a GPU, this graphics on this card keeps up with movies, tv shows, and the small amount of gaming that I do. Very impressed. I haven't even overclocked it yet and it still works very well. Happy with my purchase!

I used 1 out of the 3 included cables to install a new SSD into a desktop computer. The remainder will be used at home on my machines. Thanks!

I was nagged for this review, which I feel is a despicable practice that needs to end. Making it even worse is I haven't even used the SSD or cooler yet (and, if I'm lucky, I never will). I bought this one for use as a spare SSD so I could quickly replace one of the ones I already have in use if one should ever fail. I bought the combo because it was the same price as the SSD only. However, the heatsink I'm using already is not likely to ever fail. I have five identical SSDs and one cooler already in use so I'm basing this review off of them. So far, they have been working well. I use them primarily for data storage: four in a desktop computer and one in a laptop. In both computers, one of the drives in each also serves as a boot partition. For booting and running a computer from, they run as fast, if not faster, than the Samsung 970 Pros they replace which is remarkable considering that the Sabrents are TLC and the Samsungs are MLC. Write life for TLC drives are generally around half that of equally sized MLC drives but are still high enough to make it unlikely for anyone to exhaust the write life before replacing the drives for newer technology. The heatsink appears to cool better than the one used on the motherboard of my desktop computer. It just barely clears the graphics card (your mileage may vary).

I had a 6-year-old desktop with a regular (legacy) hard disk drive. The desktop was painfully slow when doing anything. After installing the SSD, the desktop instantly sprang to life. It's like a brand-new computer. If anyone has a slow computer, and it has a legacy hard disk, pop an SSD in and you will be amazed by the performance difference.
