I bought this computer at Best Buy about a year ago. It has performed well and given me no major problems.

It barely fits into the section of my desk at home that contains all the wires. Between a cable modem, a wireless router and a wireless mouse there are just too many wires.

NOT MUCH I CAN REALLY SAY ABOUT THE GATEWAY GT5032, I BOUGHT IT ABOUT A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WHEN I TRIED TO BOOT THE FAN WOULD JUST RUN BUT WOULD SEND NO SIGNAL TO THE SCREEN. LONG STORY SHORT....EVERYTHING WORKED GREAT FOR A LITTLE BIT OVER A YEAR LIKE I PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED. I WENT ONLINE FOR SUPPORT AND REALIZED THAT MANY HAVE OR HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM I EXPERIENCED. THEN I REALIZED THE MOTHERBOARDS WAS BURNT OUT AND IF I WANTED IT NEW IT WAS ABOUT 250 BUCKS.....

This is a BIG computer. The tower is very large. It is somewhat noisy, but thats not that bad. The performance is good, for basic daily things. NOT for gaming. The computer has been reliable so far.
