    I don't think its good for the price given what you'd need to upgrade on your own. Also gotta think of the actual case. There are vents in the front and side but nothing to actually pull the cool air in. From my own personal experience (it's the case I'm still using to this day) it's gets really hot really quickly. Also like Kalmado, that PSU may hold up for exactly what's in the system. I added a 1TB hard drive and PSU wouldn't budge. I needed up grade my PSU to handle more HDDs at first and then later when I switched them out for a newer GPU.

    The system (even my older one) holds up well for what they are if you don't plan any upgrades. But, at least my opinion, they don't future proof it for upgrades.

    I don't even see a mention of the PSU's output. If you get it for $620, it's fine. Don't pay no $950 though.

    Can anyone recommend a router? I'm tired of having to rent one from Verizon. I dont need anything with super awesome omg performance because I barely know what I'm doing as is. Just something reliable! Thx fam.

    Tbh for the average user you can rarely go wrong with any of the routers from the big names (Netgear, Asus, etc). If you're not super concerned with any of the specifics I'd just try to find the one with the best range available at whatever your maximum price is. I'd also recommend getting an AC router for best speed with modern devices, but that will be standard with any higher range routers.

    Personally I use a Netgear Nighthawk modem/WiFi router combo, but that only works for Time Warner or Comcast.

    Not sure if they told you also, but FIOS are real dicks with 90% of the routers in the world and only allow usage directly from their line (DEMARC) to your home with certain ones they provide. It's a small group of Netgear and Actiontec routers that have the MoCA connector built in (a type of data connection line they specifically use). I've been in the same boat since I got the service a few years ago. It's one of many ways they can milk you dry and not many options for getting rid of it.
