Powerful and quiet
With its 144Hz screen, it's very fluid, the colours are beautiful and it's very comfortable on the eyes. The PC is silent in IDE (office automation), and I didn't feel any slowdown in any of the tasks I entrusted to it. On the downside, the PC is a bit bulky, but I imagine that this is to allow more space for cooling.

the computer corresponds well to the description and works very well. but i have a big problem with the second hard drive, which has a space for it but is inaccessible without dismantling it, which would void the warranty.
a well-placed trapdoor wouldn't have made the price go through the roof.Review automatically translated -

Works well with Kubuntu
I won't talk about gaming, because I'm not a gamer...
So as soon as I unpacked it, I booted it onto a Linux-Kubuntu installation key.
Everything works without a hitch.
The only problem is the keyboard backlighting. You can switch it on and off directly from the keyboard, but by default it scrolls through all the RGB colours like a Christmas tree, and that can only be adjusted by software.
So you need to use OpenRGB. Download the AppImage and the udev install script. Run this script in sudo; then launch the app (also in sudo). There you can choose the colour and the "static" mode. Once it's done, it stays in memory, so you don't have to do it again every time you reboot (fortunately).
The glmark2 gives a score of 8160.
It goes to sleep instantly when you flip the screen down, and comes out of sleep just as instantly when you open the screen again.
Nothing else to report.Review automatically translated
