Thermaltake Glacier 360 Gaming PC Review, Is It Worth The Price?

by Colton

Thermaltake PCs have gained popularity with their new pre-built models, so I figured it was a good time to give the Thermaltake Glacier 360 a full review.

Hardware still isn’t the easiest thing to come by to build your own PC at a fair price – it has been nice to see that Thermaltake has entered the market with some beefy pre-built rigs to shake things up and provide more pre-built options for all of us.

In this post, we will dive into the hardware specs inside Thermaltake’s Glacier 360 gaming desktop and the level of gaming performance that you can expect from them.

With that, let’s get to the review.

CyberPowerPC GXiVR8060A11 Gaming PC Review, Is There Enough Power Per Dollar Spent?

by Colton

CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme GXiVR8060A11 Review

CyberPowerPC released a newer model gaming desktop so I figured that it was time to give the CyberPowerPC GXiVR8060A11 a proper review.

It has been quite a journey with gaming hardware supply not being able to keep up with the high demand… Pre-built PCs have been on the rise because of the recent shortages, especially with graphics cards.

Gone are the days (for now) of being able to build your own PC for a decent price point. With how the market is today, pre-built PCs are the only way to go when it comes to finding a gaming rig that has good performance for a fair price.

In this post, we will jump into the specs involved with CyberPowerPC’s GXiVR8060A11 gaming PC and narrow down the overall level of gaming performance that this rig is capable of.

Skytech Azure Gaming Computer Review 2022, Is It A Valuable Gaming PC?

by Colton

I saw that the Skytech Azure gaming PC over on Amazon was a top pick when it comes to high end gaming PCs so I figured it was time to give it a thorough review!

Pre-built gaming rigs are extremely popular these days due to the craziness of the GPU market. If you aren’t able to purchase the right parts to build your own gaming PC then odds are that you are scouring around looking for the best of the best when it comes to ready-made gaming computers.

Skytech has been a prominent player when it comes to easily accessible and quality gaming PCs on the market. Plenty of folks swear by their level of quality for their ease of use and great customer service.

So when it comes to one of their higher end models, the Azure, do they follow suit and is this PC worth getting in today’s market?

That’s exactly what this post will be going over. I hope that you will feel more confident about whether or not you should snag up this PC after reading through this!

Alarco Gaming PC Review, Affordable Rigs To Upgrade From?

by Colton

The Alarco gaming PC is due for a proper review update as it seems to still be sold as a solid budget-friendly pre-built gaming PC.

Super-affordable PC rigs are pretty limited on the market today so it’s no wonder that the Alarco PCs stand out for those wanting to save the most money possible on a PC – people are still buying this PC and my goal is to help those to stay away from these PCs or to help them on an upgrade path using these cases.

In this review, we will go over the different variations of the Alarco gaming PCs, each of which uses a similar (extremely old) hardware configuration but with different case designs. Unfortunately, there isn’t much of anything good to share about these PCs… as you’re much better off going with other rigs or building a PC of your own.

With that, let’s get to the review.

Skytech Chronos Mini Gaming PC Review, Is This Mini PC Worth Getting?

by Colton

Skytech’s Chronos mini PC has gone through quite a few updates since the last time we shared a full review and figured it was time for a proper review update. Prebuilt gaming PCs are very popular right now and the Chronos mini has always been a popular choice when it comes to small form-factor prebuilt … Read more…

Skytech Shadow 3.0 Gaming Computer Review, Is It Worth Picking Up?

by Colton

I noticed that the Skytech Shadow 3.0 gaming PC on Amazon was selling well after recent hardware changes so I decided to give it a proper review!

Pre-built desktops have come a long way in terms of gaming performance power. Skytech has led the way when it comes to affordable, performance-driven desktops that stand the test of time.

Although there is a decent amount of money that can be saved from building your own PC, it’s still worth looking into pre-built options when the hardware makes sense.

There are different variations of the Skytech Shadow 3.0 desktop so I will be touching up on some of the differences between them to help you narrow down if it’s the right desktop for you to go with.

With that, let’s get to the review.

Xidax Review 2023, Should You Just Build Your Own PC Rig?

by Colton

I’d like to review over Xidax for their “ultimate” custom gaming PCs. Most pre-built sites like this don’t provide good value, but we’ll see if Xidax does!

I’ll be looking into different budget points for custom PCs that they have, if the parts are of quality measure and if it’s actually worth getting for the price.

With that, let’s get to the review.

No Compromise Gaming Review, A Legitimate Way To Rent A PC?

by Colton

Let’s review the No Compromise Gaming website and find out if it’s worth your time to rent a gaming PC and whether or not they’re a legit service. No Compromise Gaming is all about being able to set up a monthly payment structure to get a gaming PC build shipped to you without the expensive upfront cost.

When I first came across No Compromise Gaming I saw that there were plenty of good customer reviews and the website was easy enough to use, it doesn’t seem like a bad idea – especially for those that are low on credit.

My biggest concern is how much power you’re getting per dollar spent which will be the main point we go over.

In 2021 and beyond it is very important to understand the performance-power ratio in terms of how much you’re spending on the actual hardware inside of a PC.

PC gaming hardware is at the highest levels of performance that it has ever been at in history so it’s important to not miss out on deals and the actual performance value that is out on the market today.

With that, let’s get to the review.

Skytech Blaze II Gaming Computer, Is It Worth Picking Up?

by Colton

I’d like to post a review of the Skytech Blaze II gaming PC since it seems to be a popular PC when it comes to an all-around high performance gaming desktop.

Pre-built PCs have evolved quite a bit, even from the past few years. It wasn’t too long ago when almost all pre-built PCs were a rip-off and building your own PC was the absolute way to go.

Today, that’s not so much the case. Sure, you can save a decent chunk of cash with building your own rig but not everyone wants to do that. It’s nice to be able to take the PC out of the box, plug it in, turn it on and be ready to go.

The Blaze II gaming PC from Skytech is a pretty decent choice when it comes to all of the pre-built PCs out there and I’d like to go into detail what it is all about!

With that, let’s get to the review.

SkyTech Archangel 3.0 Gaming Computer, Is It Worth Picking Up? (Updated: Ryzen 5 3600 & GTX 1660 Version)

by Colton

SkyTech Archangel Gaming Computer Review

I noticed that the SkyTech Archangel gaming computer on Amazon was selling well after an update so I figured it’d be a good idea to look it over and review it!

For the most part, pre-built PCs rip you off – especially when you don’t take a look on what’s in on the inside. It’s one thing to read the product reviews on Amazon itself but it’s a whole different story when you understand what’s really going on with the hardware of a pre-built.

With that, let’s get to the review.
