Very happy
I used to build these machines when I had the time to hunt for parts, but these days I've grown lazy and decided to just buy one prebuilt. The only change I made was to install an M.2 drive: Samsung - 970 EVO Plus 1TB Internal PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe) Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology Then using the Microsoft Media Toolkit to create a USB installation of Windows 10, shown here under the "Using the tool to create installation media": https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 This allowed me to install Windows 10 on the M.2 drive and use the SSD drive as a backup/storage drive. This went very smooth. It might help to know the Motherboard site since I needed to download additional drivers after installing the M.2 drive. Make sure to check the board is the same: https://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=925#download As for gaming I have been able to run every game with maxed graphics and I see exceptional frame rates. The only change I made was to install I ran UserBendmark to see where this machine stands compared to others (https://www.userbenchmark.com/) and the results were very good. I've attached the overall test and for gaming, it shows a score of 92%. Very happy with the results.

Fantastic Gaming Computer!!!
This is the first gaming computer I bought in almost 20 years. I bought it to be able to stream games like "Among Us" without frame drops. With the GPU's onboard hardware encoder, streaming to services like Twitch is painless. Since I now had access to a gaming GPU, I also tried a bunch of games on it. Things that were unplayable to me in the past such as Yooka-Laylee, Street Fighter V, and Dolphin run fantastic! It also makes for a snappy development machine. I'm a bit older so the lights aren't my thing. The tiny button on the top can turn off the CPU light and the larger button can turn off the rest of the lights. The only thing I miss from using a laptop is how quiet laptops are. Compared to a laptop, this is loud. Think of it being about as loud as a projector fan, XBox 360, or a quiet dishwasher. That is solved easily enough with noise cancelling headphones. Finally, the two negatives I have on this machine is that it does not come with Bluetooth and the wifi is not set up already. I had to dig through the device manager to figure out what my wifi card even was and then download the driver. For $1000, this computer is a fantastic deal.

Performs exactly as I expected it to -- for gaming
Ordered this last month on the 30th, actually received a notice that it was ready for pickup nearly a week earlier than the expected date which was awesome. This PC does exactly what I was hoping it would do.. just run my games at ultra/very high settings without tanking in FPS or performance. It did come with a keyboard and mouse but they didn't really blow me away, still using my old ones from my last system. The only thing this computer was missing was a large storage device, which was easy to install myself. Just added a 2TB SSHD Firecuda from SeaGate in the bay down at bottom of the case. NOTE: You will need to get a SATA cable to install a drive yourself because extra cables weren't provided. Also when this PC arrived one of the RBG LED fans on the top of the case was VERY noisy, and there was a large scratch on the backside of the tower on the metal panel covering the wire storage/HD storage space. I wrote Skytech an email about it and the very next day they just asked for pictures of the fans so they could determine which size they were, and then shipped out both a replacement panel and a fan immediately. VERY VERY happy with this purchase and the manufacturer, I have already recommended this among my discord gaming buddies. (For those who are looking for gaming specifics: I play Ark, Conan Exiles, Fallout 76, Elder Scrolls Online, & Destiny 2 on this machine all at the highest possible settings now)

Awesome Performance and Design for the price
This is my first gaming PC that I've owned after a friend recommended it to me telling me this prebuilt was great for the price. It was very easy to set up as it came with a simple 2 page guide and took me less than 20 minutes. They also included guides on how to properly clean your PC and helpful tips on getting rid of storage. And it comes with a form that showed that the PC was properly tested to make sure everything was running correctly before shipping it out. The design is so sleek. I love how it comes with a magnetic tempered glass door that makes it easy to clean and upgrade new parts for later. The fans are also very quiet. They also included a gaming keyboard that you can change color and mouse. I'm really loving the performance so far it feels good that I can play with ultra high settings on all my games after I've been playing on low settings all this time.

Best bang for your buck PC on the market right now
To be completely honest, my whole review I spent over 15 minutes working on was deleted because Best Buy crashed on the submission page. So I’m going to give the basic shpiell on this computer. -The build quality was excellent and clean and professional. -I did the math and it’s actually cheaper to buy this PC prebuilt then build with each individual parts (Due to COVID) -Each computer has different brands of parts but I happened to get lucky and get all good parts. Ryzen 3600 Zotac RTX 2060 Super Mini ($420 card) ADATA GAMMIX DDR4 (2 x 8 gb) Thermaltake 600 W Plus Certified PSU Thermaltake H200 with 3 RGB Lights (pretty sick) Skytech has earned a lifetime customer and would highly recommend them to anyone new to PC gaming or even like experienced PC users who have built their own PCs.
