Thoughts
After looking to build a pc and pricing it out, my brother found this thing on here. its a pretty damn good deal and around a 100$ cheaper than what i was going to build with a better graphics card. My first impressions:-The computers mechanical hard drive is painfully slow and really limits the speed of the computer. My brother had 250g samsung solid state drive that he had yet install on his computer and gifted it to me. After cloning my system onto it I installed it as my first dedicated hard drive and now use the mechanical hard drive as extra storage. That is the biggest single upgrade you should do if you get this computer.-The computer is missing microsd and sd slot (memory cards for cameras). For 11$ i bought one that that has numerous ports and an additional usb 2.0 and installed into the extra bay in front the computer. Note, Don't buy one that uses usb 3.0 because it doesn't have an extra additional usb slot 3.0 on the motherboard, however it has extra usb 2.0 slots on the motherboard.-The motherboard is cheap but it works, the only bummer is that motherboard is not able to overclock the processor which is a shame because the processor used in this machine can-The case was not as ugly as i thought it would be.I was originally going to put it in new case or shell when i was looking at it on the internet but to be honest it doesn't bother me as much as i thought it would.- The mouse is garbage that it comes with, however the keyboard is fine. Already had an 8$ bluetooth mouse laying around so thats what i am using.It really is a decent PC and can run overwatch and fortnight no problem. If you buy this computer i would definitely recommend putting in a SSD (hard drive) to improve performance (night and day difference). I have yet to add more ram because its seems fine with the 8 gb it has. Buy a new mouse and your set.

UPDATED: Will Now Game!
For those who didn't see my first review, it was along the lines of "PC won't game, and don't know what's wrong, please HALP!". Well, Skytech Support came through and HALPED!PC arrived with a bad graphics card. Display would shut off after any moderate stress, so basically if playing any modern game. Sometimes, I couldn't even make it to the game itself before it went black. After extensive testing and troubleshooting with Skytech, they arrived at the conclusion that it was a bad GPU and sent me a new one. 6 days later, threw it in and tests are going fine! Everything seems to be running well. Now, here's a review of the product (now that it's working...). Please keep in mind that I have extensive gaming history, but never on PCs, only on consoles.The case itself is quite stunning. The blue light emitted by the cooling system looks amazing. The system overall is quiet, but not silent. You will hear this system running, but I have yet to be distracted by the noise. So far, it seems to be quite responsive overall. A few hiccups here and there, but I think that is quite fast. The games I have tested so far run very smooth. I have not used a Frames Per Second counter, however. I can only speak from what I noticed.Overall, this seems to be a great starter gaming PC for moderate players. Minus the rocky start (thus the 4/5), I love this PC. And you can buy knowing you'll have some great tech support an email away!

Awesome PC For a somewhat hardcore gamer
I wanted a new PC so I could replace my geriatric laptop and also play classic World of Warcraft. This computer is fantastic, it runs the game at an unbelievably smooth rate, I can also play some of my other favorite games such as Mine craft and Hearthstone on the highest quality graphics setting and the computer refuses to slow down. The PC also provides me with a smooth experience whenever I have to transition into ding school work or completing a project for my job. The keyboard that comes with this computer is amazing! it is like a massage for my fingers every time I type, i'm having so much fun just writing this review! The mouse lights up but its cord is a little short so I had to trade it out for a less exciting mouse with a longer cord. When you purchase this product, keep in mind that it does not come with speakers or a monitor, so factors the cost of these products in when you are purchasing this computer. I've had it since August and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase!

Highly Recommended!
I have owned and used several branded computers both Mac and PC - high end laptops for the most part. The Skytech Archangel ( with NVIDIA1060) is my first assembled computer and it is by far the best computer I have found for my purposes in; power, speed, smoothness of operation and reliability all at a price that is half to one-third of what I have expected to pay. I have little technical expertise so had some minorĀ [Ryzen & GTX 1060 Edition] SkyTech ArchAngel Gaming Computer Desktop PC Ryzen 1200 3.1GHz Quad-Core, GTX 1060 3GB, 8GB DDR4 2400, 1TB HDD, 24X DVD, Wi-Fi USB, Windows 10 Home 64-bit problems in putting everything together - an email note to the support site brought quick assistance. The technician who helped me was exceedingly knowledgeable (not to mention patient and good-humored) The customer support thus certainly ranks with the best I have ever experienced. I feel I have a computer equal to any I would have had custom-made,using the best of components, at a price well below anything I expected to pay after months of research. I highly recommend this machine and this company for anyone who wants high quality at a reasonable price.

Perfect for what I need
This computer rocks. Come with a black keyboard and mouse. The mouse is actually really nice. Its fast and the lights are awesome. I was apprehensive about buying a prebuilt but it's perfect. I play league of legends, sims 3, sims 4, sims 2, universim, sim city and a few others and it is totally fine. Also theres tons of space.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY - THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND WARRANTY IN CANADA
My son bought this from his hard earned savings. The item arrived and is pretty decent. However, that was July by February the thing is not working - cannot switch it on. - I contacted the company and asked what the warranty process is. I have been told that as we are in Canada, they do not take it back for repair. They have no service in Canada, so their suggestion is that I take it to "somewhere" in Canada, but any repair is at MY cost. - they do not stand behind this.. - My son spent all that money, and of all times now, with the COVID-19 on the go, for it not to be working, us having zero options for fixing it, and even at our own cost, of course right now, we can't go anywhere.. - appalling company attitude and clearly uninterested in assisting other than having a tech help person call, but if we cannot turn unit on, then there is no point.. - Brutal!

both original purchase and replacement will not run out of the box.
purchased the first unit in which it would not start out of the box. worked with support , booted from USB stick, still would not load windows. sent back unit for replacement. replacement shows up a couple weeks later, new unit does the exact same thing. poor build. Sata cables pulled tight at right angles due to zip ties to chassis. RAM not seated properly. I usually build my own computers and needed another in the household for the kids education. will go back to buying parts and building myself.
