I would like to say at first that I was skeptical of buying a pre built gaming tower. Due to my son saying he could help me build one. But due to his work schedule and such I went ahead and purchased two of these towers. They showed up in a timely manner. The delivery was signature only which I loved for that means no one else could receive it but someone from my home. ( I know the UPS driver :) small town stuff lol ) The packaging was awesome for both and there was no damage or anything to these items. Right out of the box I set mine up and within 10 minutes I was downloading my first game. That first game was subnautica. Once I started playing subnautica right off the bat I noticed the graphics were smooth and so detailed compared to playing on my old lenovo all in one. Controls were fluent and steady. Even though I am giving you a review from the first couple of days I am ecstatic. I called their tech support and talked to a gentleman named Joseph. The reasons calling them was to ask on if I would be able to upgrade certain things very soon like making my RAM go from 8GB to 16 GB. He answered everything even when Im ready to upgrade the processor and what type. Also I would like to say that the tower does come with a keyboard and mouse they are pretty decent for what they are. But all in all I am so pleased with these towers and the company and their support staff. I hope this helps anyone looking for a mid level gaming tower. (One month later) After having this tower for a while now I will still keep my first ratings. The tower is really quiet and runs like a kitten. Considering me and my wife both have the same tower and both on a two person desk it is still silent. I did add to each tower one more stick of ram to make them 16 GB total. To let you know I played Eve online, Empyrion Galactic Survival, Fallout 4, Space Engineers and Subnautica. The wife plays Minecraft (modded) and Ark Survival. All of these games played, great some of them on high settings. So in my opinion these towers and this company are awesome and I would highly recommend them.

I have now purchased this computer twice. I originally purchased this PC through Walmart as a Christmas Present for my Nephew. The Delivery was prompt and he was blown away buy how cool it looked. He was very excited to finally be able to play some more modern games on PC with his friends. We got the PC setup and everything seemed to be fine. He played with it all night. The next day he tried to turn it on and the PC turns on and all the fans kick on, but no image, not even the Bios is being displayed on the monitor. We try fiddling with the HDMI cable and swapping it out, but to no avail. So, being very experienced with building PCs myself, I open up the Case and low and behold the PCIe Card Slot is snapped. It was holding the card in just enough to work for a few hours but eventually gave out. So I think bad luck, it happens. My nephews Christmas is ruined, but at least I know I can return the PC and get a functioning PC. I go to file the return and of course, they wont just replace the PC, I have to get it refunded. Fine, Ill just refund the PC and buy it again. It takes a month to get the money back. Well Im not going to go through Walmart again. Amazon has great delivery service and refund policies. So I order the PC from Amazon. The thing finally arrives and we set it up and once again it works great. Kid plays with the PC. We all go to bed. The next day, the thing will not display on the Monitor again. Seriously? So Im returning it again, through Amazon, and of course, they wont replace it. I have to refund it again. Guess what Im not buying for a third time... Maybe I can convince my Nephew to get a Switch..

Order this directly from SkyTech. Received well before actual delivery date. The outer shipping box had hole in it but the Computer box was intact. Rig came with Mouse/Keyboard both light up. Installing was a breeze. Had to update some of the software. WiFi adapter included but i have my Rig hardwired/Ethernet Cable for faster speeds. LED Fans are VERY Smooth and QUIET. Came with Gigabyte 580 8GB Graphics Card, AsRock MB, Ryzen 1200 Processor. Will upgrade in the future. Overall solid Rig. 10/23/2018 - I added Samsung EVO 250GB SSD. Rig running smooth as expected.

This gaming rig has everything you need to get going on most AAA titles. Havent tried anything hardcore graphics wise yet, but the games I am playing are smooth and with no issues (lag, stuttering, etc). Came with keyboard and mouse, but the mouse I wouldnt recommend using (pretty cheap plastic thing that just lights up and looks cool; I have a simple wireless mouse that performs better). Overall this pc is well worth it at a great price. Plus with how the motherboard is set up by amd, you can always upgrade to a later model cpu in the ryzen series. Lighting effects are pretty cool and its super quiet. Love this rig!

Its a great PC thats VR capable. This was purchased for my Dad and my younger sisters to use with the Oculus Rift. It meets the minimum specs and does reasonably well running games like BeatSaber and RoboRecall. Its not perfect by any means being its on the budget side of things, but it runs the games without choppiness or glitches. Whats great is that since it runs VR games well, it plays AAA games just as well! So in the event they get into PC gaming they have a rig thats capable of doing so. The Ryzen CPU is great, 8GB of RAM is plenty for most people. 1TB of space is also plenty even when installing game after game, and even though its only a HDD, it works just fine. The only thing I would consider upgrading right away is the PSU and HDD. Move to a Gold+ standard PSU and a SSD.

Its dope af and can run most triple a tittle games at high settings but i have a few problems with it. First, it lags sometimes for no reason and second, it flashes green on my moniter, and third, sometimes apps wont open and i have to restart it. Its really anoyying but overall its great for gaming.

This is my first gaming PC. I went to 2 Frys Electronics and 2 bestbuy during memorial day sale to see what they offer. This was the one that actually had better specs on a less than $700 (tax included) budget. Ryzen 5 1st gen, GPU 1050 ti, 16 gb RAM. I was kinda hoping that I would get a choice between 1 TB HDD and < 500 gb SSD. I immediately changed the HDD to SDD to get a faster boot experience. I contacted the Amazon support and then directed me to SkyTech gaming support to better help me understand if this computer can support multiple hard drives (do note that this was my first time understandin SATA cables). Turns out that I was told by the support that it has few more ports to support it. It was really a great experience because they helped me promptly. I do want to take note that in the technical details it says Ryzen 7.... i purchased the computer anyway because I actuallly read the details carefully that its in fact Ryzen 5. This is a really great less than $700 computer rig! I can play DotA 2 150+ fps full HD and max settings without ANY lag. My rationale of giving overall 4 stars is because of lack of storage choice and no manual included or at least a diagram.

So far really happy with this computer! This is my first gaming computer but I got it for graphic design use but so far played more games. Works amazingly on CSGO and league of legends. Only thing is I never got the mouse or a power cable when it got delivered so I had to go out and buy one before I could even get started.
