    Really good PC + Easy to upgrade

    I love it, it is my main PC. The fact the side panel opens up makes it really easy to upgrade when the time comes.

    Really happy with my purchase. Came well-packaged with only the supplementary items you need. Computer itself is blissfully free from bloatware. Components are all great at this price point, I had no issues or qualms with the assembly. Love the case and fans, especially the tempered glass for its visual appeal and ease of access. The fans are a touch louder than I expected but not a huge deal - I know some have chosen to modify the way they run, but I haven't felt the need. Very satisfied all around! I'm not using the included keyboard + mouse but trialed them and was positively surprised.

    one of the best for the price

    The computer runs great and is amazing for the price. the RGB is very cool and was very easy to set up. The c computer can heat up in a few hours, but that is only if it is playing a demanding game, and even then, it is nothing to worry about. The only con that I can find is that the CPU fan is the stock fan. There is also the fact that the SSD is only 500 gigabytes, which can be a problem for people who download a ton of games. Overall, i think that this ia a great buy for the price.

    Skytech has done it again. This computer is very well one of the best prebuilts I have seen. It has dual channel memory and an amazing offer. It's one of the few prebuilts I have seen that DON'T seem like absolute scams. It has an amazing CPU and GPU setup. However I would add a $50-70 Seagate Barracuda 2TB personally. Overall opinion: It's an amazing system. Building your own might save a little bit of money but if you consider what they ask for making it this system is pretty good.

    This is my first gaming desktop. I spent a while reading reviews and decided to get it. So far, it has been able to run all of my games with high settings very well. The fan is quiet, set up took less than 20 minutes, and overall I am very pleased with this product.

    Great PC Overall

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    To start off, this pc is an amazing deal. It runs any game perfectly fine and very well. The cons however, are that the front panel is relatively solid which denies airflow for the front intake fan. The rgb options are also very limited with only a dozen effects that only change colors. The cooler on the cpu is going to need to be replaced after around 6 months of use or until you notice thermal throttling. They also have an interesting fan config. The only intake fan is at the front which like I said, has nearly no airflow. My temperatures are still fine though. I got an MSI GPU, a cooler master OEM cooler, and an asrock b450m ac. The ram I got was some OLOY ram. The ram speed is automatically set to 3000 MHz so they turned on Xmp which is nice. For the power supply, I have a thermal take 700w 80+ white. I love this machine overall.

    Great PC

    They do not sell this model anymore but I've had it for about 2 years now and I have not had a single problem. My PC came with everything I needed and had been checked and signed off by a real person. Has run everything that I have thrown at it so far. I have not had to deal with them personally but I hear their support is great and I would highly recommend checking out their other pre-builts.

    Make sure to check your components!

    I got this PC today, and aside from a few very small dings in the case it was in good shape. It came with very out of date drivers, which meant needing to do some complicated tethering to get enough network support to update the drivers. That's more of a Windows problem though. I'll update with performance after I've had this running games for a few weeks, but right off the bat I see I was given 2666MHz RAM, not the 3000MHz that I paid for. It's not a huge cost difference, but for Ryzen processors RAM clock speed is very important, so I'm pretty unhappy that Skytech would try to just drop lower performance components into the machine and hope folks don't notice. When you get yours, make sure to check everything out!

    Great pre-built PC for games

    This is a great pre-built pc to run intense games with full graphics at a good FPS. Fans are quiet, RGB lights are very nice and have a good variety and the case is really nice looking. Just got it today but love it overall!

    Nice computer for the price

    Good option for someone who doesn't want to or can't build a computer from scratch. I did however have to replace the stock cooler because the CPU was getting to tempatures I was not comfortable seeing.

    The specs are great and it's easy to set up. The only complaint I have is that installing an HDD is not the easiest.

    Good price, terrible machine

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Do not be fooled by the price deal, the machine runs terrible. Constant blue screens when running the most basic of applications (google docs, watching youtube). USB Ports don't work half the time. The wifi adapter it comes with will not get you sufficient connection so I suggest buying a USB adapter.
