WE’VE BEEN LOOKING to get our hands on a Skytech PC ever since the Ontario-based system builders rocked up on the scene with supremely affordable pre-built gaming PCs. These machines absolutely ace the bang-for-buck thing. Question is, does that come with corner cutting?
Core specs-wise, we’re talking RTX 4070 for graphics and AMD’s slightly elderly Ryzen 5 5600X doing CPU duties. Skytech could have slapped an AIO cooler on the CPU, but with a max CPU temp of 67.4 °C in our testing, there’s not much to complain about. When you’re splashing out $1,600, it’s not unreasonable to expect a nonstock cooler, though. Thankfully that’s what we’ve got, albeit not the nice RGB faceplate on the cooler you’ll see on Skytech’s website.

AI, EVERYWHERE, all at once. That, in a nutshell, is what's happening to the computing industry. The PC, inevitably, is not immune. Later this summer, you'll be able to buy a machine that officially qualifies as an 'Al' PC, according to no lesser an authority than Microsoft. But you might be surprised at who's making it.
