Skytech Shadow Gaming Computer PC Desktop - AMD Ryzen 3 3100, GTX 1660 6G, 16GB DDR4 3000, 1TB SSD, Black

this is a well packed and protected computer! Driver dropped it by accident in my front door. This computer 's bios was up to date and everything [so far] works well!

If you want a great starter PC for gaming at a relatively inexpensive cost, the Skytech Shadow is the perfect choice. It's able to keep up with games released as recently as the last few months at maximum graphic settings. Additionally the 1 TB SSD is perfect if you play Grand Strategy Games like those from Paradox Interactive. Do be aware though, that monitors, extra storage space, controllers that are not your mouse and keyboard will have to be bought separately; I knew this going in, this is more a caution to those who've never bought a gaming PC before. One nice little bonus I discovered, though the computer I bought here on Amazon was advertised with a Ryzen 3 3100 processor, my system actually has the better Ryzen 5 3600 processor. Windows 11 does not come pre-installed, however you will be prompted to download it after initial start-up.Now one more thing I should warn customers about, though this isn't a negative with the product itself rather with Amazon and UPS: do not trust the projected delivery date that Amazon gives you. It does not take into consideration Skytech's timetable for assembly and testing of the computer, which is about two weeks, nor does it take into consideration the fact that it will ship through UPS Small Package as a Ground order. The latter is the problem, UPS Ground orders can take anywhere between five days to two and a half weeks to get from the seller to the customer. This is due to the inefficiency of UPS's package tracing, as often they won't even scan the package until either the delivery or until it's at the local distribution center. That being said patience is a must, but if you are concerned Skytech's Customer Service is very helpful.

This computer has been really great so far and has been running my games very smoothly with awesome graphics. For the price of this computer, you get a lot out of it. The price was 799$ when I bought this computer but the price has gone up a little. I was able to stream a game and run it very smoothly. I dont like that it is a little chunky for my tastes but it looks great overall and isn't overly big. The RGB lights are awesome and I bought a pink set up and I lovee it!!!! (:EDIT: Original purchase November 2020.It is now March 2022 and the computer still runs great after light usage. The motherboard comes with only two slots for ram so there is no way to upgrade aside from getting entirely new ram. Computer also comes configured with 1 intake fan and 3 exhaust fans, which isn't the worst but not super optimal. Overall it has been a fantastic PC for the price and still works great. Cleaning out the interior tomorrow and will continue to update how long it lasts.

Edit: 3/18/2021: the keyboard has become finicky - windows fails to recognize the connected USB device, so I'd recommend junking the keyboard or having a backup. The backlight on it was nice, but not worth the headache.It's been quite a few years since I built a PC, and don't really have the time anymore so bought this one for hosting coop games with family. The case is pretty slick, and cleanly constructed. The parts are installed well with plenty of space for future changes. No bloat in the windows install is nice! So far everything works well, playing games like 7dtd and Raft. The one "con" is the wifi antennas connecting wires are a bit too short - the antennas have a small white circular base with the antenna in the middle. These are magnetic so I stuck to the front of the PC tower although an extra foot of wire would have allowed better placement. I believe these come with the motherboard so Skytech doesn't really have control of this design.

So far 2 hours into it and I can't get the pc running. I had to use my phone's tethering to get finished install windows. The wireless refuses to connect saying unable to connect. Well turns out you have to install the two antennas that come with it which are not shown in the install guide and are blocked by a sticker. So far the keyboard sucks but I do like the mouse and visually everything looks great. I can't comment on the performance but after looking at the reviews and youtube videos it's mixed as they show information that opinion based and outdated even though it's only been 4 months. Many comment on them being from best buy at 400-500 price range and talking about it being a toaster with actually testing the pc because they cant afford to.

I've had this computer for a month and it's amazing. They stay true to their word and I would recommend this to anyone. They don't install any unnecessary software and the pc is really clean.If any of you are wondering about the RGB, there is no software to change it with the motherboard it came with ASRock 520M/ac. You just change it through pressing an RGB button.The keyboard and mouse are very low quality and I would recommend them for gaming. The mouse buttons are too hard, and the keyboard is memory foam. Not the best for gaming.Some Games I Play FPS:Fortnite Competitive: 170-180 fpsFortnite Epic: 70-90 fpsRainbow 6 Siege Ultra: 120-150 fpsMinecraft 16 Chunks: 300-500+ fps (Depending Which Version)Valorant High: 180-200 fps

The PC is probably fine, but I haven’t had the opportunity to experience that as the item arrived defective. The manufacturer’s tech support was very helpful and they patiently tried to troubleshoot the problem but came to the conclusion that the power supply is defective and they advised me to call Amazon and ask for a replacement. However, Amazon told me that they can only refund my purchase, so now I have to return the defective PC and place a new order for the same item. Very inefficient and time-consuming.
