Revainrating 5 out of 5

That's great! for computers and accessories

SkyTech did a great job creating this pre-built drive. I really like the all-metal body with magnetic glass revolving door and magnetic dust cover on top. The LEDs are connected to a small RBG button on the top of the case. What they sent me: i5 9400F with stock Intel fan ASUS TUF B365M-Plus gaming motherboard with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and antenna PNY Geforce GTX 1660 overclocked version HP DDR4 v6 8GB 3200 RAM (one stick, MOBO has 4 slots ) PNY black SSD 500g SataThermaltake Smart 500w 80plus PSU The gaming mouse and keyboard they sent looks really decent quality. RBG Keyboard, a low-profile mechanical keyboard with an unexpectedly heavy metal base. The mouse also seems decent, but I can't verify it because I used the one I already have. 5 Stars for Gaming: My 9 year old connected to his VR headset while I was surfing the web and whatnot and this computer didn't even flinch. 5 stars for value: I've been looking for an affordable gaming PC every day for about two months. I feel like I got the best bang for my buck. I couldn't check tech support because I don't need it. Maybe it should be 5 stars? When I got to Windows there were two shortcuts on the desktop for SkyTech support and one for live tech support chat, so I assumed they had good support. Just a warning, after a few hours of playing, I started hearing a knock. I was going insane thinking it was the PSU fan. Pre-builds are notorious for using cheap power supplies. But it turns out that there are two small metal shells on top of the PSU shroud that hold your SSDs in place. An unused one was the culprit and a thumbscrew was later cut off and this computer is as quiet as a mouse. Another plus: If you write an honest review, SkyTech will send you a $10 Revain gift card, so I'm guessing that's about $10 off the price. So read this right now!
