SkyTech Archangel VR Ready Gaming Computer Desktop PC - Ryzen 2600, AMD RX 580 4GB, 8GB DDR4, 500G SSD, Wi-Fi, DVD ROM, Windows 10 Home 64-bit

So far the computer has been running ok. I had to update windows a little bit. Though the first time booting up the pre-installed web browser, the screen showed a checkered pattern that was pixelated with distorted colors, then the PC froze. I have not experienced anything else after that. Also, there was no included mouse like it says there should be in the Amazon listing. AND as Im writing this review, the space bar on the keyboard is already sticking. I have contacted the retailer regarding the mouse. And I will update my review accordingly. EDIT: Changed rating to 1 Star They did not respond to my request for compensation in regards to the mouse/powercord being missing, and the computer continued to crash when plugging in new HDMI or DVI Cables. When I returned it, I was only refunded ~600$ rather than the full 749$. I reached out to Amazon and they were a huge help, setting up an email to see what the deal was. Turns out they charged me a $160 dollar restocking fee, and claimed it was not defective. They obviously do not actually check if its defective or not, they probably just turn it on, and if it lights up, its good. I submitted an A-Z Claim with Amazon and they got me the $160 back the next day. Amazing job from Amazon, terrible communication/cheap product from the seller. Would not recommend / buy again from this vendor.

This pc is well in budget, I bought it for $650 and it runs most games at the highest settings at 60+ fps and on fortnite it can reach up to 300 fps, Apex Legends all low settings up to 200 fps and all high settings fortnite and apex around 80 fps. It can also run Rainbow six siege all highest settings at around 120 fps. Bo4 at very high settings around 80 almost steady 80 fps.

Bargain for what you pay. If you’re considering pc gaming this is probably one of the best prebuilt entry level pc for the price. It comes with a 650watt 80plus bronze thermaltake powersupply instead of the 500w it says in the description. Mine personally came with a xpg 2400mhz 8gb ddr4 ram, gigabytes amd rx 580 4gb, hp sata3 500gb ssd, an msi a320m pro plus motherboard, gen 2 ryzen 5 2600, disk reader, 1 exhaust fan at the back and 2 intake fans in the front. The pc runs r6 siege on very high at 90+ fps and rings of elysium at high at 60fps. They definitely cheap out on the ram and motherboard but it’s still really decent for what you pay especially considering you get an ssd. I would definitely recommend upgrading the ram completely with different sticks. It will also come with a mouse and keyboard but I would definitely recommend buying better accessories. The case is pretty but definitely cheap. Still no issues with that. They will also include a usb2.0 wifi adapter. I believe you will need to purchase a Bluetooth adapter separately if you want Bluetooth. Came with all the necessary drivers and programs but it will also include some unnecessary files as well. Cable management isn’t terrible but could be better. I benchmarked the pc stock with no overclocking in Unigine Heaven on high and ulta settings. Definitely a bit room for overclocking but you’ll need better cooling and possibly a new motherboard.

I ordered this as a starting point for my gaming desktop, and its pretty solid. Came with most of the advertised parts, and my PSU was upd to a Thermaltake 650w Bronze, Mobo an ASRock AB350M. First things Im likely to replace are the Mobo and RAM, but Im still happy with the build at the price point. Having the SSD makes it very quick on boot/load/install times, and while the cable management wasnt fantastic it wasnt the worst Ive ever seen. It shipped very quickly, arriving on the first day of its scheduled delivery range, and was packed with very sturdy foam, outside and in(to keep the graphics card in place). It also came with a bunch of covers for the extra usb, audio, and video ports, to help keep them clean when not in use, which was a nice surprise. On the other hand, the case has a panel in front that covers the optical drive, which Im not a fan of. In the limited space I have with my setup, it only gets in the way. I did some testing with some general gameplay in Path of Exile, and no matter what I did it stayed quiet and below 43°C. Ill be doing some more benchmarks and testing more games on it (fully modded skyrim, here I come) in the coming days, but I have no doubt that itll handle anything reasonable. tl;dr Overall Im very happy with this build, especially for the budget. I dont foresee any issues in the future, though I will certainly be upgrading it as theres plenty of room to do so.

This PC couldnt be better than its budget. There is lots and lots of room to upgrade the PC for future gaming if wanted (including enough room to add the RTX 2000 series or a 1080ti). I also was able to add on an extra 8gb ram stick and 2tb hdd with no problems at all. The keyboard and mouse that I got is RGB and on the back of the case you have an RGB option. I got a newer modeled ram stick with mine and 550watt. One thing to keep in mind is this PC is a legacy bios mode so that means you wont be able to access the bios through windows10 like normal or easily so youll have to press F2 when you restart or turn on your PC before the OS begins. Also, legacy isnt very secure but it should be fine. Otherwise, really great PC, I was able to play Dying Light at max settings and Rise of the Tomb Raider VR in max settings with no problems. This PC is amazing for its deal, I dont think I could have beaten this build on my own and have a full protected warranty on everything. It also shipped very fast, mine was supposed to come between Feb 6th-11th and I got it on Feb 4th and I ordered it on Jan 31st. Impressed!

So considering the price and the few reviews, I thought Id share my experience. After looking at building my own and other prebuilts this seemed to be an incredible value. Building it myself would only be about $30 less, but if you factor in time that is not really a savings. So I noticed some posted what they got and apparently it does vary so I will share what I got: MB - MSI A320M, CPU - Ryzen 2600, GPU - MSI 4GB 580 (RADEON™ RX 580 8G V1), Teamskill 1x8 GB RAM at 2400Mhz, Gigabyte 500GB SSD, Thermaltake 500w 80+ White PSU, and a thermal take case and case fans as advertised. The MB is rather cheap and would have been nice to get 4 DIMM slots, but the two will suffice for most people. I also noticed some said it didnt have bluetooth, but mine came with bluetooth and wifi adapter in the MB and not as an extra dongle. But the graphics car despite being single fan put up great results. Witcher 3 runs at high with 60fps and Bf1 runs at max with almost 75fps. This rig has no trouble with anything on 1080p. The CPU stays as cool as it should. The GPU runs on the hot side, but within safe range. Using CPU benchmark I got the following results. CPU - 82.4%, GPU - 67.8%, RAM - 40.7%, SSD - 88%. This is with no overclocking. The offbrand level RAM is definitely a weakpoint and would have preferred to pay an extra $15 on this build for a Gskill or something like shown in the product picture. I plan to upgrade in the near future there. UPGRADE ABILITY: this has plenty of options for upgrade as it is all standard parts, no dell or hp proprietary bs here. There is an extra drive cage to put another drive in. There is only one other RAM slot meaning you could realistically only put in 16GB, even though the MB can take 32. You could definitely also put in a bigger graphics card later (though you may need a bigger PSU) on as there is plenty of room there. I think even a 120mm water cooler could fit if you really tried. They did throw in a mouse and keyboard. They both work and are wired. The keyboard may be the worst i have ever seen. Probably should not even take it out of the box and deposit it directly in the trash. but its a freebie anyway. The mouse, however, is actually pretty solid. It lights up, has 5 buttons, and pretty good sensitivity. All in all, well worth the money, one of the best values on amazon for pcs and hard to beat in this price point despite the cheaper ram and mb. It has all the components needed for real gaming at 1080p

Just delivered about 20 mins ago. DOA. Will not power on. Have requested a replacement through Amazon but at this point, I may just return and order from someone else. Update: Two days later and tech support has still not called back. I have a desktop from Skytech from when they first started and its a great machine. When I had some questions about the system, I was able to contact support in a timely matter. But, now, with this system theyre non-existent. Definitely not good given how expensive these towers are.

Did not come with 500 GB SSD as described. No time to return before Xmas. Without the SSD theis is not a good deal at all. Will update review if they make good on this problem. Update: started process of returning. Was asked to provide a few pics but Skytech seems to be responsive. Will update when my return is complete.

Had this for 5 days now and am loving it. Graphics are beautiful and I am gaming on highest settings. Fast, solid, and gorgeous.

Great PC for the price. Very easy for a beginner to setup and start playing. Very easy overclocking tools came installed it in. Biggest downfall is going to be cooling if you start to overclock it.
