We've reviewed a lot of prebuilt gaming PCs lately, and although we've found 2 that did well in our challenging test suite, most of them make common mistakes. This video shows that.

Between singlechannel RAM configurations, bloatware (preinstalled software), and proprietary parts, we'd have enough to condemn any prebuilt gaming PC but there's more still that the worst of the worst manage to screwup. The ABS Challenger and Skytech systems we tested have both passed our grueling test suite, but with the scattered remains of their adversaries on our lab floor, it's time to recap exactly what it is that the others are doing wrong.

Prebuilts are expensive, but you can help support our reviews by visiting our store, where you can buy highquality mouse mats, mouse pads, modmats, shirts, and glassware: https://store.gamersnexus.net/ and also by our Patreon supporters:   / gamersnexus  

We're running very low on Volt Modmats! If you want to get one while supporting us, place a backorder here (ships this week!): https://store.gamersnexus.net/product...
