We bought the Microcenter PowerSpec G513 micro-ATX pre-built to see if it's any good. Our review, testing, and benchmarks evaluate the thermal performance, but we also look at the assembly quality, part selection, and value. This system nails it on a lot of points -- but has one big, disappointing miss.
