Most likely if you are reading this review you are exploring the option of buying a prebuilt rather than building your own rig. Due to the inflated GPU prices thanks to all the crypto---mining this was actually cheaper than building my own at the time of purchase. More specifically it would have cost me approx. $50-$75 more to build, not including the kb/mouse/led strip(those items are pretty cheap & I recommend having their replacements ahead of time). So, as far as value goes, this is 5*/5* for me. Performance- So far this thing has handled every game ive thrown at it on max or near max settings with ease! GTA V, Witcher 3, PUBG, Destiny 2 etc.. 5*/5* Verdict - Value, Performance & Build Quality are all exceptional. I paid something like $1950 & have no regrets. All items showed up quick and packed securely.

This is my first actual desktop gaming pc. I’ve only ever had gaming laptops so I am blown away at the smooth speed of this pc. I did however get some higher end fans with higher cfm then the ones it came with as well as a clc for the cpu. This computer had the best graphics I could ask for so A++++

I am a longtime professional fashion portrait photographer who needed to upgrade a system, I am shooting 42 megapixel images and my old setup was dragging a little, plus it really struggled with 4k footage though it is not my main business. This PC has absolutely taken care of all my needs power wise. Importing with Capture one and lightroom is so much faster and working at full res in those and Photoshop is as fast as anything around. Editing 4k footage in Davinci resolve is mindblowing compared to before, instant scrubs and rendering full 4k is truly blistering for a unit that anyone can buy. It will make you money. I had to load a few games to test and it runs 4k at ultra in the games I use at 60fps synced and higher when not. This is a great machine and the components are all great though the cpu cooler is the bare minimum for hard work. I love the eclipse 300 case, an award winner for good reason. I was a little worried about airflow and room but it is fine and so easy to get into to work on if you need. The lighting I wasn't planning to use but it turns out it is now giving my workspace a little extra class. Mine came with an MSI 370 A-PRO motherboard which is great with usb 3.1 gen 1. A fast 5gbps though. A great board, also an Evga 1080ti which ran to its max heat until I added the EVGA software which controls the fan speed, now it runs at 1911mhtz and stays below threshold even when gaming at 4k for long periods. Memory is Adata xpg 2666 ddr4 which is running at speed and solid. The CPU ran warm when pushed to the limit with the stock Intel fan which came with the system. Adding Msi software to speed up the fans helped. I chose to add the Noctua d15s cooler and now it stays in the 50s and sixties when really pushing it and stress testing but I used it for a while and had no issues before upgrading. I prefer to choose my own wifi and this worked great for me though the system has high speed lan. Cyberpower are definitely at the top of my list for bang for the buck. Buying from Best Buy is a choice I made with my last system after years of in house custom builds. I tried an HP Omen and an Alienware before this and returned them, as the cyberpower had much higher end components for not much more money, being able to return them and ending with this amazing cyberpower machine was great. I am adding a phone pic with the original cooler and the Noctua
