daivid tech tips did a review on that, you should watch it. your cpu and gpu will probably overheat.

I'm actually surprised by the price of it.

I did read some reviews though, and a few people mentioned that it can easily overheat.

You may want to replace that rear fan and the cpu cooler.

Idk if you can add fans to the front. If you can, then get a good 120mm noctua fan, and mount it as an intake fan.

He doesn't do any of that. He just reviews them out of the box, replacing nothing. I recommended a few changes you should make to this.

He talks about a plate that HP mounted to the top of the case. You can apparently remove this, and add a 120mm case fan up there. Even if you don't add a 120mm case fan up there, just remove it anyways.

i would rather just buy a new case with proper airflow but you can i guess change the cpu cooler to a aio and put it on top. and i guess you can add another fan

I mean you can use one of those for the top. Not 100% sure if you can or even want to re-mount the cooler. A new one might be a better idea there.

 

The hp case comes with a 92mm fan at the back btw, so you'll have to purchase a new one to replace that one.
