Slightly better specced and more expensive than the Alienware and Lenovo deals recently, but from somewhere you can take it back to without hassle if something is wrong out of the box.

Slightly different models, but it does mention that they use pretty decent, name brand parts. I gave it a shot, after I canceled my Lenovo just because the whole thing felt like a mess, and the reviews and non upgradeability of the Alienware turns me off of that one. Mine is set to arrive at Best Buy to pick up Friday, though, so I'll know for sure then. I may pay the extra $50 for the BBY membership to get the 60 day return policy though, just in case.

Found this, which shows there's no performance difference between a z690 and z790 on a 13900k, if that's what the issue is.

If it's a 690, what a dumb move. Its hardly any price difference.
For a balls to the wall build, yesteryears mobo doesn't cut it.
(1) The reason I'll take a system integrator (like Skytech) prebuilt over a proprietary (Lenovo or HP) prebuilt is all about upgradability, especially the standard motherboard over the HP/Lenovo motherboard (because we don't want to switch motherboard in a prebuilt). A Z790 is superior than Z690 in upgradability for RAM and other PCIE devices, so the Z690 in Skytech kind of kills the upgradability which is imo the main reason to choose it over a Lenovo/HP built.
(2) Depending on the retailers a low end Z790 board is literally costing $0-$10 more than a low end Z690 board (e.g., Msi z790 pro vs Msi z690 pro). Nobody would buy a Z690 at this point. The fact they'll go for a Z690 board in a 13900k + 4090 build costing $3000 it just ... unacceptable. Also, Skytech prebuilts don't come with the best PSU and case fan setup either.

A balls to the wall prebuilt. The assumption is probably that it only needs to run fine with shipped config, they don't assume the person buying this is going out after and swapping ram/wants to add 4 more SSDs. I get that these things are expensive, but the amount people keep chasing numbers on paper and trying to poo poo on everything that isn't the absolute top of the line is confusing to me. Honestly, outside of synthetic benchmarks or staring at the FPS counter to see 265 FPS vs 258 FPS, no one that this type of machine is designed for is gonna notice a difference.
