    The "Tested Components" sticker is an FCC certification that none of the components will cause any radio interference. It has nothing to do with the actual operation of the system.

      @@SpencerPetaluma That's not really an indication of it being turned on. SIs use customized Windows installations that have all relevant drivers and software baked into the install. The image is simply copied onto the drive. This can all be done before the drive is even installed in the case. Another comment mentioned this potentially being a returned unit, due to the missing mouse pad and packing foam. If that is the case, it could explain the fully updated drivers. It's entirely possible this is not how the system came from iBuyPower.

    Channelwell (CWT) has made good power supplies in the past. They are OEM suppliers for many brands such as Corsair and others. If I recall the Corsair 650W CXM as well as some of their TX series were built by CWT. As you know, Corsair actually does not make any of their power supplies but contracts other manufacturers to make them (same with other "brands" except Seasonic). The actual PSU manufacturing companies include Fortron Source (FSP), Channelwell (CWT), Seasonic, SuperFlower and Enermax to name a few. So it seems Ibuypower skipped the middleman company and went straight to the actual manufacturer to help reduce cost, which may be a smart move.

      @@Oxytropis1 This is partly true, but the power supplies are cheap but quite usable. Smaller retailers on amazon/ebay use much worse ones, which can literally blow up in your face.
      Generally, you can not talk about worse components, it really depends on the price, model, etc. They are also designed for shorter warranty periods. By the way, I have already seen for example in a FSP power supply on the secondary side Ruybcon capacitors, there were the same branded PSUs were equipped with Teapos. This Japanese capacitors topic, is also largely hyped by marketing.

    Hey Dawid, make sure to do a follow up video where you take the machine apart and rebuild it your own way, simulating what a skilled user would do to upgrade this rig - add better RAM in dual channel, fix the issues inside the machine, put a real cooler on, set up XMP, CPU, and GPU overclocking, and see how the rig performs after all the tweaking.

    I got another deal on Mercari. This one was for $500 for a complete PC with a GTX 1660, i5-9400, 500gb SDD, 8GB DDR4 (recently bought 2x8gb for $40), 5 RGB fans, tempered glass window etc. Together they make a computer that blows any ones you mentioned out of the water, with almost enough parts to spare to make a budget build for a buddy of mine.

The sticker is claiming that all components inside the PC have been evaluated individually to FCC requirements (i.e. won't make a satellite crash or mess with police radios). The assembly of the components has not been evaluated (but it is most certainly acceptable). Basically, they were too cheap to pay the ~$10K USD to get the system evaluated to FCC standards.
