Very good performance/price index.
Loads of RAM and the quad processor deals with background tasks very efficiently.
The PC can truly multitask without struggling.
The machine is also very quiet.
The 2 hard drives make it ideal for backups.
Overall very pleased with my purchase.
- The front cover is a bit flimsy.

Score 10.0/10+ Brilliant slick design that fits nicely with most rooms because of it's shiny gloss / modern look. Very fast at multi-tasking and very quiet due to lots of ventillation. Last but not least this machine is an absolute bargain for the brilliant spec.
