I bought a cybepowerpc for my son, and it has just blown us away with its speed and the graphics. It is everything that we wanted and more. We were looking for something that had a lot of power and was a good price. What we got so 16gb ram 2tb hd and a 2gb graphics card and this thing is awesome. We have bought a ton of gaming systems and this one my son just can't stop playing.

I needed to buy a new PC for 3D modeling and rendering, not for gaming, and I considered building a PC, but wasn't confident in that either. After researching for quite some time, I came across this PC with the Nvidia Geforce GTX 970 and the AMD FX 8320 processor, which I knew would cover the graphics I needed.
When I went to research CyberPowerPC, I really didn't find any newer reviews, but the older ones weren't great. Lots of complaints about weak power supply. Also, there are almost no reviews of this PC company on bestbuy's website, and none for this model at all. I was very hesitant to purchase this computer, but decided to be the guinea pig just because it looked so good on paper.
These things are included in this rig, but are not listed under the product features:
800 Watt Power Supply (geforce 970 recommends at least 540 Watt I believe)
Several USB 3.0 ports (2 on the front)
Motherboard-Mine came with a "Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3"
Case-Thermal Take V31 (includes 2 red LED fans, 1 front, 1 rear.
Optical Drive is LG brand
VGA to DVI adapter included
This computer runs great. I've been using Autodesk 3DS Max 2015 with VRay, which is a pretty hefty rendering engine. I've also played around with Mudbox 2015 and Maya 2015. I've had no problems running any of these programs, and even 2 at a time. Only negatives are there is no internal speaker of any kind, which isn't that big of a deal, and there is no wifi. I did purchase a USB Wifi Dongle from netgear that works really well for $30. This is a great at home solution for anyone working with any 3D applications and I'm sure it would be great for gaming as well.

I've read through reviews of different computers as I was shopping for one and this came across with best ratings. Computer came in with straight forward instructions and it was easy to set up. Some negative reviews mentioned that it was loud, but not in my case. Unless you are sitting right next to it and specifically listening for the sound, you wouldn't even know it was ON.
Graphics overall are amazing and game experience is great!
I would definitely recommend it to people looking for a gaming PC but don't have the budget or don't want to spend thousands on a high end gaming PC. This computer is a great steal for the price it sells for.

After looking at many different computers, we chose this one and we couldn't be happier. It is so fast and can play all of our games on the highest quality. My only issue was that there is no wireless networking. I had to purchase a Wi-Fi USB Adapter separately after I hooked everything up and realized that that it only came with wired capabilities. I should have noticed this in the specs, but I figured in this day and age, wireless was just a given... It's not! But still, overall, we are very pleased with the performance.

Very nice gaming pc for the price, came a day earlier than I had expected. Fast and easy setup. I'm currently running World Of Warcraft at 98 fps on ultra and I'm very impressed with the game play thus far. Would recommend this build to any gamer. As far as fan noise, I admit it is a bit loud but very manageable. Other than that I'm pleased with my purchase.

After going through the hassle of returning the first two desktops (first one had burnt up hard drive, and the second one had a burnt up video card) I bought, which are this exact model, I finally got one that worked. I will say the one that I received that works was way beyond my expectations. The Bestbuy team should make sure their products work flawlessly before shipping them out to customers so that situations like mine are avoided. I will also say that customer service was awesome, hassle free, and made everything right for me. So future buyers beware this desktop may need to be returned a couple of times before you get one that works!

Works well for sons needs & advanced gaming experience so far. A little loud motherboard as previous reviews described but truthfully, I expected it to be worse: I cannot hear it outside of his room if that helps paint a clearer picture. My son knew exactly what he needed to play his games and he hasn't complained of anything yet. ....Matter of fact, he loves it. My only concern was receiving a computer through the mail; However, it was packed well and had no problems getting started (my 14yr old son setc it all up and started up without any problems) .

I have used it about a month and it's been great so far. Having no problem using graphic heavy programs and its noise level(cooling fan) is okay. Note that it is not extremely quite but not so loud.

this computer suits my needs. But still waiting for my digital download link of tomb raider, was supposed to be sent after i picked up computer. Also sales person who sold this to me spelled my last name wrong. Hope that can be corrected.
