A Very Mixed $3000 Bag!

I couldn't get a 3080 at launch. When trying to get a 3090 at launch I saw this and pulled the trigger in 10 seconds or so that I had to purchase it.
The Good
Price: You can't buy the components in this machine and build it yourself for this price. Matching the components almost exactly it would cost me $300 more to build myself!
Quality: Almost all of the components are either off the shelf retail, or lightly customized parts from known retail brands.
Performance: With a RTX 3090, I9-10850k, 32GB RAM, and M.2 NVMe there's really nothing more powerful to upgrade to.
Smart Cost Cutting: 90% of the cost cutting on this build is spot on.
1) Cheap, but name brand motherboard. If you're only doing light tweaking even the most basic of Motherboards will do. The ASUS Prime Z490 is basic but quality.
2) 3000MHz RAM, fast RAM is one of the least effective ways to boost system performance. Sure, I could put some 4200MHz in here but it would gain me a 1% to 2% performance boost at best.
3) Mid-range name brand NVMe. Again, just like the motherboard, this was a smart pick. The 1TB WD Blue drive is a perfect cost, to performance, to capacity pick.
4) Cheap off-brand DRGB fans. Digital AKA addressable RGB is the way to go to help your build feel different. Fan manufactures know this and are more than willing to charge you for it! Going with a off-brand Chinese, or Korean brand removes that unnecessary markup. The result is quality ARGB fans at a fair price.
5) Great case! I like the design and quality wise it feels like it may be made by NZXT.
User Experience: 4K, HDR, MAX settings, 60+ FPS PC gaming is unbeatable! No bloat software, just Windows 10 and drivers.
Unfortunately, there is enough wrong with it to question the $3000+ price tag.
The Bad
Stupid cost cutting!
1) The one place they really should NOT have gone off-brand was the power supply, and they did. This system draws 600W at the outlet when under load! With as power hungry this RTX 3090 is you can NOT skip on the power supply! Not to mention BLUE yes BLUE PCIe power connectors on sleeved ketchup & mustard cables!
2) 120mm Radiator! Literally would've been better off with an air cooler. This CPU can heat soak this radiator in minutes leaving no thermal head room for overclocking.
3) Miss-matched fans in a push-pull configuration on the radiator!
Shipping damage: There was a slight bend in the bottom of the front panel on my case which lined up with a crease in the shipping box. I was able to work it out but this needs to shipped as a box in a box to ensure safety.
Laughable assembly: Along with the power supply this is where is all goes to CR*P! It was so bad I had to disassemble the entire machine and rebuilt it.
1) Motherboard standoffs were loose! The rear IO Shield was covering up the top rear USB ports because of the loose standoffs, because you know the motherboard was bending!!!
2) Un-managed Fans. All of the case fans were just daisy chained on a molex lead from the power supply! The AIO pump was plugged into a random fan header, when the board has an AIO header! What’s worse is the BIOS has a smart profile for managing the AIO pump, and radiator fan together that wasn't even used!
3) Unused motherboard ARGB/DRGB. All of the fans and AIO pump where connected to a generic RGB controller in the case. While this controller was decent and has a physical switch on the case, you can do so much more with software.
4) lack luster cable management. Granted you'll never see them the cable management was not great by any means.
5) CPU power connections. The motherboard has a total of 3 (4 pin) CPU power connections. The power supply has 4 (4 pin) CPU power connections, but only 2 were connected. While this _works_. It’s lazy at best, ignorant at worst.
BIOS settings. This ties into handling of the CPU cooling. The AIO used is adequate at best! With that said you need to do everything right to help keep the temps managed and the noise down. CyberPowerPC didn’t even try. I feel sorry for those that bought this PC with the knowledge to resolve this issue. They will have thermal issues with their CPU over time.
I had to fix it myself! GM cuts corners on cars, my Camaro ZL1 1LE is both expensive, and an amazing bargain at the same time! But I don’t feel any of that cost cutting, I don’t see it when I open my hood, or when I’m on the track, but I know it’s there. The difference is I didn’t need to do anything to address the cost cutting day 1 of owning my car. With this $3000+ CyberPowerPC I couldn’t even use it until I addressed the issues, and that’s not acceptable at this price point.
Picture is the machine running after I rebuilt it. I replaced the power supply, RAM (for RGB), rewired the fans, pumps, and RGB.

one when I picked up the computer the box was all broken. I picked up the pc and very exited when I got home notice some bended item and got to a 2HHD being loose, how does Cyberpower PC send these stuff out like that being a 3k computer notice some cheap parts on it like 1000 watt power supply and having a 3090 do they not know what they are putting ??? overall some parts are good and are just not even a conversation.

I don't usually do reviews, but I am really happy and proud of this purchase. I didn't plan on buying it initially, I planned on waiting a couple months after RTX 3090 was released not knowing of the supply problems they were going to have. I received an email from NVIDIA notifying me that RTX 3090 was going to be released the next morning so I curiously looked on my Best Buy mobile app and this was available surprisingly at the time, the night before release. Something in me told me to buy it, so I did, and I am very happy I did with all the problems there has been with supply. I know over time they will fix it and more people will be able to get the cards they want, but I am really happy I was able to get it day 1. I was even able to pick it up a lot sooner then the initial pick up date. I am playing 4k @ 120hz with most games at over 100 fps, it is beautiful! Yes, it is expensive, but it is my dream machine and I am able to play Next-Gen graphics without a problem. (The PC I owned was pretty old, case and tech, and upgrading it would've been more work and possibly more expensive. I can find other uses for my old PC) I feel like I won the lottery getting this when I did knowing how many people weren't able to get the NVIDIA card they wanted. I am grateful I can upgrade whatever parts I need to upgrade, which aren't many. Overall it runs amazing, just really hot when playing games at highest settings. I've used MSI Afterburner to check temperatures, and my RTX 3090 doesn't get hotter than 83 degrees Celsius, which is good. I was a little worried at first. If you want and can afford a dream machine for gaming, school, and work, I highly recommend it!
The only thing I didn't like was that the box was damaged when I picked it up, so it made me somewhat nervous, but everything was intact and connected and ready to go after I plugged it in.

A 3090 desktop!!

What a rare chance to be able to order a 3090 desktop! I ordered one immediately and received it from Best Buy in a couple days. I immediately set it up, enabled XMP for the ram, and started playing Warzone where it hit 185 fps in some areas of the map. The FPS could be faster if cyberpower gave it some higher speed ram. The MSI gaming x trio is good but no great.
From a value perspective, $3600 is a lot of money for the components used. The ram is cheap, the motherboard is cheap, the power supply is cheap, the case was cheaply put together and bent in many places, and the cabling and mismatched colors looked like it was put together by a kindergartner on lunch break. Oh, and it would randomly restart from time to time.
This system should be at most $2600. Desktops from competing websites that start with N and end in G would provide name brand parts at the same price.

My first purchase was for a more expensive CyberPowerPC desktop. Unfortunately Best Buy broke the PC while in transit. I tried actually viewing the PC but the Best Buy employees would not allow me to do so! I'm assuming since it had the highly sought after RTX3090 graphics card was in there... They decided they would rather piece it apart than sell it to me.. That could just be my paranoia considering I purchased THIS PC.. Got it home.. and I'm writing this review on it! So far everything is working great. That said, I LITERALLY just powered it up and inserted the little cardboard USB stick that it was equipped with. I can't give this a 5 star rating just yet but assuming the graphics card works as it was intended.. we're cooking with gas bruh!

Solid Computer - Some complaints

I bought this computer because it was a great opportunity to get a beast of a cpu and gpu to set up for the future in 4k and beyond. Overall, I'm happy with the system, and the components - now that I've got it up and running in an optimal setup.
My real frustration was in the way the system actually got to me. I had to get in there and remove a couple plastic pieces from the video card that were never removed prior to installation. There was also a problem actually getting the computer to run - I spent hours trying to get it to even power the monitor and produce any kind of image. I finally was able to get into the BIOS after several attempts and some tweaking of the installation internally.
After that I was able to update the BIOS and ensure that the overclock settings weren't causing issues. I am now good to go, and it seems to be stable.
It was frustrating to spend over $3k on a pre-built that I needed to go and do so much work on. I would have appreciated a fully tested and ready to run machine.

Best way to get a 3090 with the shortage. Build quality is top tier (everything routed better than I would have done myself) and no issues so far. KB/Mouse are lack luster, but if you're like me you're coming from something existing and/or can afford to get something quality instead. Overall extremely happy with what I got and the price is very decent for the components included when compared to a DIY. Only part that is potentially sketchy is the PSU, but if it craps out it's still price competitive to replace with a recognizable name brand. Other components are very reliable known brands (Asus, MSI, etc.).
