The packing for the computer was very good, and I received my unit without any damage or loose parts. I especially like HP's solution for the GPU, which includes an additional black bracket on the right side of the card, which assists in supporting it in shipping as well as in general use (which is necessary due to the card's significant footprint and weight). Build Quality, Cable Management, and Aesthetics: So far, I am really happy with the build quality. The fit and finish is what you can expect from a large manufacturer who is able to leverage the economies of scale. The PC feels rock solid, the screw/tool-less case panel access works very well. The only major thing I do not like is the lack of side panel dust filters. There is a removable dust filter at the bottom, but I can just tell the sides are going to get dusty. The cable management, while not as pristine as something like a Digital Storm or Maingear rig, is certain serviceable. It doesn't look like a birds nest, and the cable flow decisions they've made generally make sense. One thing that was a major plus for HP is that they prewired and cable managed extra SATA cables, so that if you want to expand your hard drive space, you can do so very easily. You don't have to mess with the cables - they are already there for you. The all black pcb, gpu, cabling, and case look great together. I don't really "display" my case, so I don't really care too much, but nevertheless it's nice to have something that is at least not offensive, and actually looks pretty sleek. Bloatware: 5 minutes is all it took to remove everything through the Add & Remove Programs feature in w10 settings. The only things I left were the omen command center (which you can use for overclocking) and lighting control software. There were a few remaining items that couldn't be uninstalled, that were related to HP data collection for analytics. These are easily disabled though by going to: Windows Key type "run" type "Services.msc" look for programs that start with "HP " double clicking them set startup type to "Disabled" and stopping the process apply Expandability: There is one extra m.2 NVMe slot as well as 2 standard SATA connectors for additional storage. HP installed extra SATA cables and already cable managed them for you, so that if you want to expand your hard drive space, you can do so very easily. You don't have to mess with the cables - they are already there for you. The intel variant's motherboard has 4 memory slots, if needed. Though, I have read about people claiming to have issues with third party RAM achieving proper XMP settings due to the BIOS not offering an option for editing those settings. However, I believe this can be circumnavigated using the Intel ETU. Either way, the RAM they provided is fast enough for me. The CAS latency is a little slow, but frankly, I won't upgrade until there is a reason to. Thermal Performance: CPU: Settled in at 74 degrees during an Aida64 CPU+FPU+Cache stress test with all cores turboing to 4.5ghz and no thermal throttling. GPU: Settled in at 70 degrees during a max-settings Heaven stress test with no thermal throttling. Real world performance for the CPU and GPU is even better. My CPU usually only gets up to 65ish during my work loads (adobe, rendering, etc.) and my GPU around the the same temperature during a long gaming session. I did no formal testing for memory, SSD, and motherboard, but temperatures are consistently great. Keep in mind, I keep my house around 68 degrees F, so your mileage may vary. I have not overclocked the CPU yet. The 10600k has quite a bit of headroom (can match or beat a stock 10900k), and given my thermal performance, I believe I achieve that pretty easily. However, because the system performs so well with the games I play and the work I do, I likely won't overclock for another few years, until I really need to squeeze the last bit of life out of it that I can. Final thoughts: So in general, yea I recommend it. If you were like me and worried about the thermal performance and expandability, then hopefully this review helped ease some of those fears. As with everything in life, your mileage may vary, but from my own experience, I can't really imagine needing or wanting anything else from a new gaming/work pc in 2021.
