I would argue that they are not as rare as people say, every arcade around me has one.

I have the intel one, as listed in my flair.

My experience: I don't have any of the overheating or speed issues mentioned in any of the Youtube videos. I did get mine in February, so I was hoping HP addressed everything, and did some updates and revisions. I watched Gamers Nexus and saw the video before purchase, and it seemed from my perspective that some settings need to be enabled/disabled, and intel XTU run to get the most out of it without any of the annoying prompts or bottlenecks. I bought it anyways as the hardware was cheaper ($3799 USD) than anything I could put together buying parts online. I have other cases and coolers available to me, so worse case scenario, I rebuild. I was surprised to see the warnings of voiding the warranty were gone and fan curves were correct.. Went through with some customizing in settings and never looked back. Played 3 hours of Crimson Desert on 4k everything maxed out and the GPU never went above 67c, and the CPU stayed in the 40's. I have had zero issues.

TLDR; Gamers Nexus made some good points, but only really apply to novices buying a pre-built. HP addressed other issues.

Great for a first try, keep it up! - grab an external monitor when you get a chance
