### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent priced

this computer was in a very good condition, and for is being used, is great, no problems at all

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product and service
*by D***N on September 21, 2025*

Just set up product and it worked great right out of the box. I did have to purchase a DP to VGA cable, but once I connected everything, it came to life and what a breeze setting up. I was a little leery of this model because of the reviews about the hard drive, but hopefully those were just one-off reviews. It really helped that I had One Drive on my old pc. Anyway, I would highly recommend Maxecomputers' products.
