A great value PC that is packed with a performance punch!
I have setup numerous Windows 10 desktop computers for clients and I must say this one was one of the most well configured systems at an excellent price that I have seen. The system packs a powerful Intel Core i5 processor with 8 GB of DDR4 RAM and a 2 TB hard drive. Many will knock Windows 10 but it's honestly not that different from Windows 7 and an improvement over Windows 8.1. Here are some suggestions on what to do when buying any new Windows 10 system: 1. After going through the initial setup, right click on the start menu in the lower left corner and go to Programs and Features. Remove any pre-installed anti-virus software like McAfee or Norton. Once the uninstall is complete, restart the computer by choosing the start menu in lower left, click the 'power' icon (circle with line) and choose restart. After restart completes, Windows Defender (Microsoft's anti-virus gets enabled). 2. Click Start menu and choose Settings icon (gear). Click Update and Security and click Check for Updates. Continue doing this until the system states that there are no new updates available. Many new systems may have been sitting for quite some time and are running a stock image from the manufacturer. It's important to do this first before anything else so that your system does not get bogged down trying to get these updates downloaded while you are doing other tasks and so you have the latest security updates for your system. 3. Be cautious where you download your software. Always make sure you are visiting an official website as many sites claim to offer a download link for popular software but bundle it with extras that can affect the performance of your system. Visit [...] for a trouble free way of downloading new software to your system without worrying about the extras. Here are some suggestions on what software to install on your new system: CCleaner: [..] LibreOffice (free office suite for Word, Excel and PowerPoint): [...] Google Chrome: [...] Mozilla Firefox: [...] eM Client (free e-mail client): [...] Malware Bytes Anti-Malware:[...] Windows Defender (built in to Windows 10, simply uninstall any pre-installed anti-virus software on the system and reboot). Enjoy your new Windows 10 PC!
