Enjoy sharp, detailed visuals on this 24" Asus VX248H LED HD monitor, which features a 1 ms response time to minimize blurring and ghosting and an 80,000,000:1 ASCR (Asus Smart Contrast Ratio) for image vibrancy.

Very fast, nice screen

Verified Purchase:Yes
Pros: Gaming - perfect on PC and console
Cons: Graphic design: #000 shows up as #1a1a1a, probably due to the "power saver" mode being disabled, my VN247 (previous years model of this same monitor) does not have this issue.

HP 20" W2071D LED HD Monitor: This slim monitor is great for checking e-mail, browsing your favorite websites and checking Facebook and Twitter. It also works well as a second screen so you can get more work — or fun — done. Plus, you can free up desk space by mounting it on a wall.

Not a bad monitor for the price...bad for doing graphic design. The grey is out of wack. (Not in settings, doesn't display #999 properly, appears same as #fff.)

powerful multitasking

First, let me address the people complaining about the Windows update error when you first launch... Don't update Windows first, update your graphic card and bios, then update Windows... That's common practice. The operating system must adapt to the environment it is in, the graphics card can't.
Plays games well, multi monitor support out of the box.
Great computer for a web developer that needs video editing speed. I run dreamweaver, Skype, illustrator, and Photoshop while in developer mode of Firefox without issue.
The i7 would be the way to go if you intend on gaming hardcore.

Pros:
Easy set up, low battery usage, good size.

Usb is cheap, and keyboard is cheap plastic. Takes a minute to turn back on when you suspend the computer.
You drop this, it's going to break.

Car stereo install

Before Best Buy, I purchased a car stereo, speakers, amp from a competitor who is no longer in business. They agreed to uninstall my "new" equipment and re-install the factory equipment when I needed that done. Can I get that done at Best Buy? What is the cost, if so?
It's $125 + parts for best buy to install aftermarket, I'd assume they would charge you $125 for uninstall, + $125 to install the factory set.

Fallout 4

Can this PC handle Fallout 4
Not well - the GTX750 will get around 45fps on med settings.

You'll want a GTX970 or 980 to play Fallout4

Can this computer run the Elder Scrolls Online and Sims 4?

Worried about the graphics card mostly
Yes, but not maxed out. Maxed out Skyrim runs at 24fps. Med-low setting Skyrim runs at 43-60fps.

You are better off getting the higher end model of this machine with either a GTX970 or 980 if you want the latest games in 1080p at no less than 60fps at max settings.

See if you meet the following criteria:

1) You aren't modifying parts on the interior of the machine once purchased. (opening the case voids warranty)

2) You are not a hardcore gamer, you just want something that can play the latest games, albeit not on great settings.

If that doesn't sound like you, do some research and build a custom box. These types of machines are not designed to be modified (warranty is void if case is opened), they are designed to be like an all in one package to entry level PC gaming for new-to-pc users.

How do I upgrade to 16 GB, but keep the same components?

I love the components of this computer except that I don't know how to expand the RAM to 16 GB... Any help?
You'll need 1.35v SDRam, 1866 (laptop low voltage ram)

There are 2 SDRam slots on the motherboard.

Disclaimer: This will void your warranty, I am not responsible for any damaged equipment, which has a high probability in this computer, this computer is designed to be more like a gaming console, not modified by the end users. I do not recommend doing any of this if you are new at modding, unfamiliar with soldering, or if you are not a certified ASUS tech.

You need to remove the top case, be careful to not break the cables that connect the lighting to the front of the case.

In this order:
1) Remove the fans
2) Remove the DVD drive
3) Remove the heat-sync (I bent mine, and then re-bent it back into place - I can't recommend this however, since it can potentially break the whole heat-sync - I was prepared to buy a replacement if I broke it. Be prepared.)
4) Remove the ram
5) Add your 2 new 8gb sticks of ram

Put everything back in reverse order.

A better solution is not to purchase this PC if you have the intention of upgrading parts, this computer is not designed for end user upgrades. I modified this PC because of the following:

1) I didn't care if it broke
2) I am an IT professional
3) I've been doing custom PC modifications for over 15 years

If you are not an IT Pro, do not modify this PC. The innards of this machine are not for the novice user, nor will you be able to call ASUS for help if something stops working, since opening the case voids the warranty.

what are the best features to have on a mechanical gaming keyboard?

I am purchasing a mechanical keyboard for my son for christmas , but do not know which one would be best for him. I do not mind paying a higher price for better made, better features and better
quality , or even features that may not be necessary,but add a wow factor, but do not want to pay for things that are probably all hype
Logitech has better priced equipment with the same (if not more) features than razer products.

I don't mean to really dig at razer here, but they really are hype-priced. They do not offer as much support or functionality in their products that Logitech does. It's not to say their equipment isn't good at all, but it really is not worth the cost associated with the name. It's kind of like choosing Levi's or Wrangler, Levi's cost more just because of their name, even though both are of identical quality.

The Orion keyboard, as the model number suggests, 910 is one of the top tier, which means it has many more customization options than the others (500 series, 700 etc.)

If he is a serious gamer, then I would suggest top tier for a few reasons:
Maintenance is simpler
More control
More Customization Options
Great support

If he doesn't play often, 700 series is plenty good enough. It won't have the same type of back-lighting etc, but they are not to be marked as "bad" they just have less features, built on the same concept as top tier.

I use the 910 for programming, gaming, and web development. I had to upgrade from the 700 series because I needed to be able to customize the lighting on the keys for dark-room typing ease.

I know this advice is a bit late, but hopefully this helps you or someone else.

how do you recover this pc

can not boot from usb
If you make it to the desktop, upgrade the NVIDIA drivers, reboot and it will fix the error.

If you cannot make it that far, use advanced options from the error screen, click troubleshoot, click on "Refresh" (the option that allows you to install windows on the PC again without losing files)

Then install NVIDIA drivers.

The issue is that the hardware in the PC is incompatible with the drivers windows selects for it on first run - very dumb problem to have, but easy to fix.

Thinking about buying this computer. What kind of fps etc, do you get playing WOW?

Not sure about WOW, but on ESO I get around 60-110, depending on what I have running in the background.
