Newegg's ABS brand has plenty of options from which to choose, but the Challenger might be the most attractive thanks to its affordable price.

PC gaming has been on the rise in the last couple of years as people spend more time at home, but landing the right hardware for a build — primarily the best graphics cards — hasn't been easy. That's where pre-built gaming PCs have excelled, as manufacturers could offer full systems for the price of what a single GPU was selling for on most markets. Newegg's Advanced Battlestations (ABS) brand has been garnering a positive reputation thanks to the use of non-proprietary parts, competitive prices, and solid workmanship. I have here the ABS Challenger (ALI598) mid-range PC for review, and I've been using it for the last week to see what it's all about.
