Before starting up the computer, you have to admire the astounding job that is done with the wiring. It is absolutely clean, and more importantly, it is ready to go the moment you open up your package. The computer design looks phenomenal and will catch an eye. However, the computer is bigger than I expected, but the up-side to that is that there will be better cooling.
I have this hooked up to an LG 34UC79G-B, which is an UltraWide 2560x1080 144hz monitor. All my games I have currently, ran at 2560x1080 144hz on the highest graphic setting possible with no trouble. Games I tested so far were Rainbow Six Siege, Fortnite, and American Truck Simulator. I have also tried Battlefield V, since it came for free, and at everything at its maximum graphic setting, frames generally sit around 130, fluctuating between 120 and 144.
I never built a computer myself (other than swapping a graphics card out of my old PC), so I was most definitely leaning toward a pre-built computer. I honestly was a little worried that I will have at least one problem with the computer, but fortunately that was not the case. Once I had everything hooked up and set up, there has been absolutely no problems. If you are looking into PC gaming, I highly recommend looking into this product.
I have been putting off purchasing a PC since my intention was to build one. However, time being a luxury in my busy life I pulled the trigger on this PC. This was my first major PC purchase in a long time and a major purchase for me. Gaming is not the primary reason I need a PC like this, but I wanted something that's a bit future proof and something that can handle just about anything I can throw at it. So far I think I've made the right choice. PC arrived in good condition although the box itself had slight damage. Before firing it up, I inspected everything inside. Components seems to be pretty well put together and wiring is neatly run in the back of the case out of view. I do wish the power supply was a bit beefier and while most likely adequate for the current build, the bronze power supply may fall a little short in the future should you choose to upgrade some of the components. The case itself looks much better in person than in pictures and I am so happy you can change the color or turn off the fan lights entirely unlike the front case light some iBUYPOWER PC's have. Overally so far i'm very happy with the purchase. I reached out to tech support with a question since I wanted to swap the secondary drive with an SSD and they were super helpful. Wouldn't hesitate to purchase again in the future.
I bought this system as as Christmas present for myself. I read some reviews and did some math on my own. First, when I priced out the pieces if I were to build this myself, it would only save me $16. I would gladly pay that to not have the headache of building and possibly troubleshooting my own work. Second, this one worked on the first power up with no need to troubleshoot a darn thing. Second, this machine looked way better in person that it does in the photos. They just don't do it justice at all. It's sleek and modern and just enough lighting to turn a head or two.
I did have to download NVIDIA Geforce experience and the motherboard software to update the drivers. I did this because I wanted to have the most updated drivers. There were no issues with performance that forced me to do this. The computer had absolutely no bloatware or any software added to Windows. Of course, Microsoft did have their crap that is installed with Windows that I had to remove.
My computer runs like a dream. All my games are at max settings and running smooth as silk. I've got 3 monitors plugged in with no issues whatsoever. I connected to my home WiFi on startup and was able to connect my Bluetooth devices without any problems either.
Pros:
Minimal bloatware and the drivers were up-to-date enough to run out of the box
The build is neat and the cables are managed
This beast PERFORMS like a dream!
Cons:
I need a bigger SSD. That will be my next purchase.
The free keyboard squeaks when I type.
The free mouse is horrible.
This is one of my best purchases ever and I would do it again in a heartbeat.
Upgraded my whole rig from a GTX660 set up, so obviously this thing is a beast in comparision. I mainly bought this PC from Amazon as they offered me monthly payments, but I was rewarded with so much more. Lighting fast, everything loads up quickly and it can handle several instances of programs at once. I only have a 144hrz monitor, so my frames only go that high, but I run EVERY game I play on Ultra, with ZERO issues (unless the game isn't optimized well). Soon enough I'll be buying a VR headset, as this PC is more than capable to handle it. RGB lighting could be a bit brighter to show off the inside, but that's not a deal breaker. The only issue I've ever had with the PC, is after a month of use, I moved it to a different place in my house which allowed me to notice a bulging on the right side of the PC. So I opened it up, did very little cable rearranging and some how my SSD got disconected (hard to notice) which my OS was installed on so it didn't load. I called customer support and they were very helpful in helping me resolve the issue with a little re-inserting of the sata cables. The free mouse it comes with is actually pretty decent. It's weighted and yes, they are removable. Keyboard is meh, but that's not what I'm investing my money into anyways. Oh and one other small bummer, is the tempered glass is pretty hard to see into, so your 'oh-so-expensive' insides aren't as visible. Which kinda brings me back to the not-so-bright RGB lighting. But as I said, before, not a deal breaker. Hope this was helpful.
This computer is a beast especially for the price! For the sake of comparison, this system is an upgrade from a 2009 Tiger Direct Systemax, 1st Gen i7, 12GB RAM, 2 x GTX 650Ti Boost in SLI (Originally 2 x GTX 260 in SLI). I essentially went from a slow walk to a full sprint overnight.
Overall set-up with Windows 10 took roughly 15 mins. The boot-up (I normally put in into sleep mode) takes 2 seconds with the SSD. I haven't used the system for anything beyond gaming yet and doubt I will since I'm not interested in renting Office 365 annually or buying another copy of office (I'll let the old system handle the administrative tasks). I'm certain I'll upgrade/expand the RAM down the road, but for now it's more than sufficient. From a gaming perspective, I'd say Rust and Killing Floor 2 are my most demanding games in terms of frames per second and I'm experiencing around 100fps on the top settings. The RTX 2080 is clearly a workhorse.
I was mildly concerned about how loud it would be based on feedback from other commentators, but I find it to be quite quiet. It probably helps that I have it enclosed. The only thing to consider is the tower size. It's not small and I was lucky to have it fit within a desk enclosure with barely enough room to plug-in the gaming headset.
All in all, excellent gaming system. I'll update this review should anything unexpected occur, but otherwise I'll see you fellow gamers on the battlefields of wasted time!

Like the other reviews have already said: If you just don't want to spend the time looking for and sourcing parts yourself, this packs quite the punch for the money! (Even without the fans I added personally.)
I added two 120mm 12v @ .45a RoseWill fans I had laying around and viola, liquid cooler plus these additional fans pulling air in work very well together. The reason I added the RoseWill fans is because of the obvious thermal advantage and I don't mind a little noise, considering I have noise cancelling headphones.
HyperThreading or bust. Just buy it already. There are several benchmark reviews of this Processor and the GPU on youtube. If you're absolutely on the fence like I was: watch reviews from a few different channels, don't just trust LinusTechTips and his merry band of Gold Hearted Employees. Check out others like BitWit, GamersNexus, PaulsHardware and Jayz2cents just to name a few. All have Great things to say. Sure there's better/newer silicone out there but as I and the aforementioned numerous other reviews have said: Awesome Bang for Your Buck. and I'll leave it here. Hope your rig finds you soon!
I've only had this product for a few days but it's exactly what I needed, I've been stressed out for the past couple weeks with having to send in my laptop in for repair time and time again (it was under a year old,mind you). I couldn't afford to go without some sort of computer for weeks on end because companies like HP can't get their act together, so I sold my POS laptop to buy this beautiful thing!
And so far I have to say I have no regrets! I'm so glad i switched over to using a desktop, you get power and performance without having to worry about thermals or longevity (as much as you would in a small form factor laptop). The price of this thing is ridiculously low, other companies would probably charge hundreds of dollars more, but this was a pretty decent bargain i would say and would cost just about the same if not more, had I built it myself. I was a little skeptical about the price at first because I was thinking they probably skimped on some of the components like the RAM or the SSD, but to my delightful surprise they did not, they used high quality components in every category.
The best part about making a purchase like this is this is a product you can keep running for years, even after the warranty period, all it takes is a little know how to fix/replace some of the components yourself, and you'll keep this baby running for years to come. I will say please make sure you've done enough research or contact customer support before you get too handsy if you're not 100% sure what you're doing (or ask a friend that knows how, most people are willing to help out ).
You simply can not beat the price to performance ratio with this system, it's a great first system for anyone who's new to the game and wants to hit the ground running with a top of the line consumer GFX card, only to be superseded by the RTX 2080Ti of course, BUT TRUST ME THIS IS MORE THAN ENOUGH. with the newest RTX card and i7-8700k, it gets crazy fast performance in basically any AAA title you can throw at it at Ultra settings.
My particular order's specs were as follows:
- Msi Z370_A Pro series motherboard
-Msi Nvidia RTX 2080 8 GB
-Kingston A400 240GB SSD
-WD Blue 1TB (2012)
-GeIL EVO POTENZA 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200)
- Power Supply I received is an ATNG ATA-800FB-B
The ram is a little cheap but it's been performing well for me so far, and if anything i could always upgrade to a higher quality set of ram sticks down the line. But so far i am beyond satisfied with this build :). Thank you to whoever built my PC because the cable management is nice and tidy, so is the overall build! It looks really good at night with the tinted glass, as if there's no glass pane there. The free keyboard and mouse were a nice touch to include as well.
I posted some photos above and a screenshot of a benchmark I did as soon as i got the pc above, if you won't take my word for it, then just look at these benchmarks.
I'll keep this review updated as I push my system to it's limits and learn more about it! So happy I went with this company :).
UPDATE: 5/18/19
So I finally got around to checking out the power supply that came with it, and to be honest I'm a little concerned because it's a brand of power supply I frankly have never heard of. My particular unit came stock with an ATNG 800 Watt 80+ Bronze PSU.
Maybe it is because I'm not as well versed in the realm of power supplies but one does get a little uneasy when it's not the top-3 power supply brands that are constantly recommended and recieve raving reviews such as Corsair, SeaSonic, and EVGA PSUs. I somehow doubt ATNG is even in the top 10 PSU brands/manufacturers and they're certainly not well known for reliability either...
I'm a little anxious and confused as to why they would cheap out on such an important component. I'm assuming it's a very cheap PSU because:
1. I've never heard of the company
2. I can't for the life of me find ANY pricing or reviews on ATNG products, which is pretty sketchy if you ask me. The only thing I've been able to find are sparse Reddit post that essentially boil down to "get rid of that fire hazard"
2-1/2. ATNG's website looks like it was made by a 5 year old and doesn't really seem to include any pricing information either, yikes.
Color me shocked and fearing for the life of my system, especially since I've made a numerous amount of upgrades including: Swapping out stock fans with Corsair RGB fans + Light strips, Replacing RAM with 3200 32GB RAM, Adding M.2 SSD + additional HDD drive.
I don't want to lose my system to a sketchy PSU, I'd sooner get in a stranger's white van than trust that thing.
Needless to say I will be replacing this ASAP. In all fairness though, the ATNG PSU has lasted me 6 months and that's not so bad but I'm not sure I'm willing to test to see how far it'll take my system before it:
A.) burns out and dies (best case)
B.) Completely fails and takes my whole system with it
I understand that I could easily have a PSU from the other companies I mentioned die out of nowhere as well just cause of my bad luck, but those companies are backed by years of reputation and testaments of great quality and longevity...whereas with this power supply, I can barely find any information on it whatsoever.
Not very confidence inspiring of you ask me. That aside everything else that came stock with my system came from reputable brands and I'm glad...but it's very scary that they cheaped out on the MOST IMPORTANT component. I just can't trust a product that even Google hardly has any documentation on.
I purchased this computer after my Alienware died on me after 9 years, luckily enough on Cyber Monday. I decided to go with this Cyberpower computer since it had all the specs I was looking for and looked awesome! I’ve loaded it with about 7 games or so already and have been enjoying super fast gameplay and productivity. My only complaint about this unit so far is that the front small glass panel gets some vibration due to the adjacent fans and was rattling horribly. I put an adhesive piece of foam on the top and bottom where the glass meets the case and problem solved! Definitely not a big deal but it would be nice if this wasn’t a thing. Definitely recommend this product.
First, let me start off saying that some reviews say they use bottom barrel parts. The only bottom barrel parts I received was the keyboard. The mouse even has weights that can be removed or added to it for comfort. The fans are not noisy, the graphics card is beefy, the system itself was wonderfully packaged and is very sturdy.
Value (most major components only and lowest price I can find on Amazon at this time):
$29 mouse: CYBERPOWERPC ELITE M1 131 7 COLOR GAMING MOUSE
$9 keyboard: CYBERPOWERPC MULTIMEDIA/INTERNET USB KEYBOARD
$409.99 CPU: OEM INTEL CORE I7-9700K 3.60GHZ 8/8 12MB CACHE LGA1151 95W
$32.99 watercooler: CYBERPOWERPC 550LC 120MM WATERCOOLER
$759.99 graphics card: Gigabyte: NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 2080 8GB GDDR6
$138.24 mobo: GIGABYTE GA-Z370 HD3-OP ATX USB 3.1 SATA3 1 M.2 CROSSFIRE
and more.
The Ram is not as beefy as I would like, but that is to be expected. I will replacing that.
All in all, a solid 4.5 stars, but I cannot rate it that.
Well worth the cost to me.
(This is for the RTX 2080 version)
I've very impressed with the shipping container. You turn it on and it works. The only downsidse I could say is that the ram is made by Team Group Inc. which is pretty bottom of the barrel. Not terrible, but not good RAM and at their lowest available clock speed (2400). Additionally the two coax holes next to the power button that should be for the sound and microphone don't appear to actually work, not a big deal because the rear of the case is fine.
Regardless, this is still a good buy considering the cost of assembling this PC yourself is about the same price.
The case I received is the exact one in the picture.
I've very pleased with this purchase.
