Steam points go over well as a gift
on January 4, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Steam system seems to work out fine. It is a way of really going through disk space, however. It seems that pointing away from the C drive is an important step to not fill up the operating system volume.

My child really prefers steam to having to manage dvd or cd games. He enjoys the library of games he can have through steam money.

My child has not complained at all and I see him wearing them for long periods of time so they seem to be pretty good headphones.

I bought one for myself and then another
on November 20, 2015
Posted by: murtech
Verified Purchase:Yes
I really like being able to use these cordlessly but often I just leave them plugged in so they are always charged. I don't think I've ever had trouble with the computer recognizing them. I've used them to record camtasia just for myself but I don't think they are as good for something like podcasting.

Very good wireless coverage
on May 22, 2015
Posted by: murtech
Verified Purchase:Yes
The wireless coverage has been very good. Also, I found the interface to be easy to follow. Throughput seems pretty good wired and wireless. I had bought a Netgear Nighthawk A6 before this and had really bad throughput with a wired connection, even though wireless was fine, so after spending a few hours with the tech support and not getting any improvement, I returned that and exchanged it for this one. I decided to try this Asus router and it is working great. I'm using OpenDNS with it and I really liked how simple it was to get that to work with this router. I would give 5 stars but the Linksys ea4500 that I replaced seemed to be a bit faster on the wired connection, but the web configuration for that became unavailable for months and the wireless coverage wasn't that good so I decided to upgrade. The wireless coverage is better but then it is a lot newer and more expensive than the linksys so I think 4 stars is about right. It might be adding openDNS slowed things down, too. I'm not sure.

Favorable experience
on April 17, 2015
Posted by: murtech
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have this set in portrait almost all the time, now. I'm writing a powerpoint presentation together with a Word document for a book for a course. I like seeing many slides at a time. I have this going side by side with another monitor that isn't pivot but the arm I have it setup with can allow it to rotate so I have two really wide monitors side by side in portrait. Really helpful. I never really did like that monitors were going wide. Here's to tall. Yay! Seriously, though, there are times that you want to see a taller page and the really wide monitors can seem really short for some views so I really wanted a good pivot. The picture is clear and bright.

Really works well for me

I'm using this with a second monitor and it seems pretty fast. I thought newer graphic cards would really be quite a bit better than this because it seems to me this has been around a long time but it seems right in the ballpark.

which printer can I buy to work well with this computer

I would hesitate to recommend any printer at all for anything. I bought a samsung color printer and support after Windows XP was pretty worthless. I bought a Canon Color Laser and often it would go to sleep and I had to go power it down and back on again to get it to connect. I was amazed how quickly printer companies would move on and not really support their printers except for the current models. That's my opinion.

What kind of graphic card does it have?

Monitors don't have a graphics card, that would be in your PC. From PC this monitor will accept a dvi, hdmi or display port cable. I'm using it with a display port cable from a laptop.
