I was extremely happy with this purchase. I will start off with the pros.
- The listing shows the computer comes with an i5-3470. But mine actually came with an i5-3570. It's the same generation and builds architecture, but its base clock and turbo clock are both 200MHz (0.2GHz) higher; so this processor is better than what it was supposed to come with.
- The computer did not require ANY cleaning inside. It had been thoroughly cleaned inside so there was no dust or dirty spots. I did replace the thermal paste on the CPU, as it was likely pretty old, but I would not expect the seller to have done that themselves.
- I didn't need it, but it came with a mouse and keyboard.
The Mini Tower (MT) case is far better than the Small Form Factor (SFF) case versions for a few reasons.
(1). Airflow is much better. Although the SFF doesn't have bad airflow, it isn't as good as the MT cases.
(2). Full-size PCIe slots allow for full-size cards to be installed (SFF require half-height cards)
(3). More HDD/SSD spots and connections. MT has 2x3.5" and 2x5.25" bays to go with the 4xSATA connectors
(4). The MT uses a full-size, standard, ATX power supply instead of the proprietary power supply units in the SFF. That means you can spend like $30-$40 and get a nice power supply unit and go with an even better GPU like a GTX 1060 6GB.
There was really only one con for this machine (or at least the one I got), and that was the RAM setup. I got the listed 8GB, but it came installed at 4x2GB. That means if I ever want to upgrade, it will cost more because I will have to replace everything instead of just adding a few sticks. That being said, I don't really think I'll be upgrading, so the RAM isn't a huge deal.
I paired my machine with a Zotac GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Mini and this thing can game! I can play GTA V on HIGH settings @ 1080p while still getting over 60 fps. That's without any overclocking with MSI Afterburner. Keep in mind this is about the best graphics card you can use on this computer without upgrading the PSU because there are no PCIe power connectors. The GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Mini just uses the power from the PCIe slot and does not require any extra power.
The total price of the entire rig was about $360. That is an EXCELLENT price for modern 1080p gaming at 60 fps. If I was to spend any more money, it would be on a new PSU, but just for reliability's sake.
I have included pictures of some of the components inside the case, along with a Cinebench test of the CPU and GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Mini.
Here are the specs of the specific machine I received. It seems like they are not all the same, so I can't guarantee you will receive the same:
CPU: i5-3570 (4 core, 4 thread, 3.4 base clock, 3.8 turbo clock)
RAM: 8GB (4x2GB) DDR3 @ 1600MHz (maximum speed supported by CPU)
HDD: 1TB Seagate BarraCuda 7200RPM
PSU: Dell 275W
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (with sticker code on a case if you want to install on new SSD)
I added the GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Mini and the 250GB Samsung 840 Evo SSD.

There were a few scratches on the cases and I had a bit of trouble getting the side panel back on (until I figured out you just have to press it in - no sliding involved). The mouse and keyboard aren't amazing, but I didn't expect them to be. I actually like the keyboard because it has tall keys. There are so many USB ports on this thing! The ones with the 'SS' logo (I'm pretending it stands for SuperSpeed) are the USB 3 ports. The others are USB 2. One of these is used for gaming and graphics work, the other for mostly coding, so I changed the hard drive (added 2 SSD's), memory (upped to 20GB), video card (hdmi/2GB), and added a blue ray burner to one, and it has Win7. The other has been left as it arrived and it's still a good machine for what it's used for. You really can't beat the price for what you get.

My daughter worked hard this summer for her money to afford her own computer. I thought this would be a nice suggestion for her since the i5-3470S is still a nice processor for her needs. The product came fast and nicely packaged, with no dents on the package box or signs of drop... BUT upon picking the box, I noticed a 'rattling' noise from inside. There was something loose in it.
Nothing weird/loose in the shipping box, so I opened the tower. There was a totally loose L-shaped plate roaming around freely in the tower (See pictures)! They must have forgotten it upon the 'renew' process since I didn't found where it fits (or I still have to figure it out). I was worried that it might have scratched components inside the computer so I've decided to begin to install her workstation for her. Some parts were weirdly screwed at the back of the tower so the Ethernet/USB ports don't align very well with the holes in the tower so you must force a bit if you want to plug them into the ports since the ports aren't centered with the holes... This part isn't screwed flat, it is slightly sideways... (See pictures) Is it a building fault or it happens during shipping? hard to say, but I'll have to try to fix it myself. I'll try to update
Other than that, a few scratch on the tower (as stated in the description that it was a possibility, so it's ok) but nothing else serious. The computer did boot, and the update process has gone flawlessly. I'm a bit concerned about the potential damage that the loose piece could have done but so far it doesn't show. There's is some fixing to do so I wouldn't consider this totally as a 'plug and play'. Other than that I guess it is alright, for now, but I would more assume this is more a second-hand Kijiji quality grade than "Professionally inspected and tested by an Amazon qualified supplier to work and look like new'.
