👎 Cons

  • The system is listed as "No Screen Display," meaning an external monitor must be purchased separately to use the PC.
  • The inclusion of an "RGB Backlit Wired Keyboard" suggests that a wireless option is not provided, which might be a preference for some users.
  • The absence of an optical drive means users cannot play physical media or install software from CDs/DVDs directly.
