Customers frequently mention the excellent performance and high FPS of the SlateMesh Gaming Desktop, with many praising its ability to run demanding games smoothly at high settings. Several users highlighted the impressive speed and capabilities of the system. However, some users expressed minor concerns regarding the motherboard's specifications.
So from what I've heard, this PC (as with most off the shelf component pre-builts) can vary quite a bit depending on the parts they have on hand when you purchase. I got lucky and I received an MSI RTX4070 Ventus 2X 12gb GPU, while others get a PNY. I got a Western Digital Black SSD, while others get a Crucial SSD. Lastly, it seems like they use a power supply from a company called "High Power", and that's something I swapped out right away, as it's usually the thing these companies cheap out on the hardest. Last thing I want is a bad power supply dying or wrecking my motherboard in a year. The motherboard is nothing fancy (an Asrock B650m-C), but those are the only less than stellar parts they shipped it with. The AIO is an in house product, and the RGB went out the first week I had it. They shipped me a replacement while charging me a deposit until they received the defective item (iBuypower, not Best Buy). Overall, I'm impressed with the parts they used in my build. Another thing I like is that all the parts are off the shelf, which means they're all replaceable, unlike most Omen's, Alienware's, ROG's etc. who often use laptop and/or proprietary components and are thus non-upgradeable. The port selection is fantastic also, but I wish the RGB was a bit....I dunno...more? At least on the inside. The fans are nicely illuminated, but the inside of the case is only lit by the AIO, 1 fan, and the included sticks of ram, but that's a VERY small nitpick. Performance wise, a machine like this can handle literally anything on the market. I run Cyberpunk 2077 with ray tracing on full, pathtracing on, and absolutely all settings cranked, and if I use DLSS w/ frame generation, I can get between 80-150fps no problem. This is a machine you want a good monitor for, because having to use V-sync would just be a shame. My only concern really is the motherboard. I can't find much online about it, but Asrock is a decent company, so here's hoping it's a decent motherboard. All that said, I strongly recommend the SlateMesh PC based on my experience.

Great gaming pc thats usually getting me 200+ fps at low settings 4k in multiplayer games. Im getting around 100+ in campaign mode games at low settings 4k. I already need to upgrade the power supply but its a great starter to build on.

Aftwr several weeks of using it i can say this was the best prebuilt option i have ever seen. With the 4070 graphics card and the rysen 7 series. This machine allows me to record stream and play games in very high frames on high or ulrta settings. Even for games like call of duty which are very taxing on the cpu. Im very happy with this purchase and anyone who is considerin buying this really should! My only complaint is that the ssd isnt faster. But its still an ssd lol the set up was literally take out the bubble wrap and then plug and play!
