Customers admire the PRISM II Gaming Desktop's exceptional performance and visually appealing RGB lighting. Many appreciate the fast SSD and powerful graphics card, although some find the storage capacity could be larger. While the cooling system is generally praised, a few users noted that the fans can be quite loud at times. The price point is also a consideration for some potential buyers.
Very fast PC, easy to use, keyboard and mouse provided are corded so they use up a lot of your USB ports however you can solve this by purchasing a new mouse/keyboard. Very loud fan's so if you plan on using a high quality mic find a way to distance the mic from the tower. RGB lighting comes with two different program's to control them, SignalRGB looks promising if you purchase the pro version however with the initial investment the free ASRRGBLED app will make due. Run's COD on ultra fairly easily, after long game play it will lag and run better on performance mode. Absolute monster in regards to speed. Invest in internal storage right away along with an internal usb 3.0 hub and your set. Far more pro's to this purchase then con's. Only beef's again are lack of USB port's which is being hard on Skytech, there's enough for most people as well as the fan noise but again cooling is 100 percent necessary. Last beef, if you buy this unit fully expect to have it drop in price and Best Buy not honor the sale price. The listing showed units were available on other devices I didn't use to purchase at the new price but when browsing on the device I purchased on it was magically "Sold Out".

System Details- CPU: Intel Core i7-11700K 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor CPU Cooler: Skytech AIO Liquid CPU Cooler Motherboard: Gigabyte Z590 UD AC ATX LGA1200 Memory: G.Skill Trident Z Neo 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Storage: MSI SPATIUM M450 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3080 10GB LHR 10 GB GAMING OC Rev 2.0 Case: Metallic Gear NEO Qube ATX Mid Tower Case Power Supply: EVGA GA 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Semi Modular ATX Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Home OEM 64-bit Case Fans: (6) Skytech 120 mm Fans Approximately $2175 if you bought the parts separately. Pros: - Quality Parts - Unboxed, plugged it in and ready to go. - Fast is an understatement. - Looks clean and has a nice black and white contrast. - RGB is Gorgeous, if you like that. - 2 open Dimm slots for upgrades. - Very little bloatware. - Great cable management. - Has room for a mini-atx motherboard for video capture or streaming. Cons: - Took 3 weeks to arrive at BBY from CA through UPS ground. Originally bought on 6/23 and was supposed to arrive on 7/2. Did not have PC until 7/12. - Loud. Loud. Loud ! No fan controls through either the bios or without rerouting the 9 fans from 2 proprietary controllers back to the motherboard. Went through the bios and changed settings but didn't affect the case fans speed at all. Runs at 100%, 100% of the time. - May not get the same components I received. - No Optical Audio out. Only 3.5 mm jacks. Great system with great parts. Hope the fans will last at 100% RPM. The motherboard has 4 system fan 4-pin, but all the fans are daisy chained on the 1 cpu fan 4-pin. If it had better fan controls, it would be perfect.
