This machine is incredibly easy to use.
I am quite pleased with the equipment that it comes with. It's a really good value for the price; you wouldn't be able to build it for cheaper if you bought the same parts separately.
The desktop suits my needs, which is just typical browsing and casual gaming, although I suspect it is capable of running HD graphics 60fps as well. I briefly considered spending over 1K to build a superior gaming PC but the truth is unless your job involves intense movie editing or sound production, this will perform very well for daily use.
One thing that bothers me is the LED light though. I am pretty sure it can change colors, but I haven't been able to figure anything out.

Good for 1080p Gaming with descent settings

This PC has typical components for a budget build, but that doesn't mean the experience isn't great. This PC is especially good for e-sports games like League of legends, Rocket League and Overwatch which all achieve 70+ fps. The lighting is also an added bonus that looks very nice along with the metal case that has a side panel window allowing you to see the components. Last thing you need to know about buying this is that the included mouse and keyboard are descent and will last a while. In short, this PC will play games at 1080p and is very good value for the money. p.s. to activate windows a key is on the side covered by a scratch off sticker thing.

Bought this for my daughter and the CPU couldn't display the picture to the screen right out of the box. I returned it to Best Buy and got an HP Omen 870-224.

This PC Is awesome!I mainly bought it for cs go and it runs perfectly on ultra settings 1080p with avg 180 fps.I also tried fallout 4 and it played on high with 50 fps at 1080p again (its a very demanding game i didnt expect it to run this good).At last but not least i tried overwatch (in medium settings beacause it looks good even in low) and at 1080p im getting arround 150 fps.I recommend this its the best pc you can get at this price point.

The computer itself has been great so far ( I used it for a few weeks). Its performance is fast and I had no problems so far.
The WiFi adapter that came with it, however, was very unsatisfactory. It worked initially when I plugged it in, but then it stopped working altogether. The computer wouldn't even recognize it. I checked all USB ports with other devices and they all worked. I also tested the WiFi adapter on another computer and it did work, so it must be the compatibility with Windows 10. The CD it comes with doesn't have any drivers for Windows 10. I did look through forums and tried installing drives from internet, but with no success. I ended up buying another WiFi adapter on Amazon and it has been working great so far.
So, besides the troubles with WiFi adapter, I love the computer.

I have had this PC for 5 months now and it functions great though i do have a few problems. The processor is bad period. if you are a fps gamer this PC is good for you but games that for the most part is open world will have major fps drop. the graphics card is one of the best the ram is good but when ever you can change the processor it has a amd fx 4350 processor. this PC can run fallout 4 GTA 5 overwatch and just cause 3 but on the lowest settings (just for just cause 3) other wise it is a good PC all round just try and change the processor.

Good Deal, But You Need To Do Your Research First
Posted .

First and foremost, let me start by saying that FOR THE PRICE, this PC is probably the best deal on the market. Performance wise, it has far exceeded expectations. For moderate gaming, it has been able to handle everything I have tried so far at or near High settings with little issues, and FPS rates have been great.
What I would like to address are several things that I discovered about the PC, that could present a problem, depending on what you are using it for, and what you are expecting.
1. My biggest issue so far is a combined problem. Their is no built in networking. What you get is a USB network dongle. This presents two issues. First, USB is inferior to on board networking, or a network card. That is where the second issue comes in ... this machine uses a Micro-ATX motherboard, and with the graphics card installed, it blocks all other PCI slots from being used. So, effectively, you have no easy way to add any additional cards to the machine, including a networking card.
2. Be aware, there is no optical drive in this machine, and as far as I can tell, no way to add one (other than an external drive). So if you need or want a CD/DVD/BluRay drive, you will be looking at an added expense, and yet again, using USB rather than a direct connection to the board ... which brings me to my next issue ...
3. USB Ports. The machine has 4 USB ports on the back, none of which are USB 3.0. Since at least one of these will be used for the network adapter, you are left with only 3. The machine does have 2 additional USB ports at the top of the case, and these ports are blue in color (usually meaning USB 3.0), but I am pretty sure they are only USB 2.0. Also, the placement of the ports on the top of the machine makes for a very sloppy look when attaching an external drive.
So, overall, what you have is a machine well worth the price, but with little to no ability to expand, and issues that could easily be fixed if the machine had the ability to expand.
My suggestion is, if you even THINK you may want to expand in the future, or if you need an optical drive, or if you want better networking, look at the other offerings from Cyberpower. For just a little more money, you can get a machine that uses a full size motherboard, has an optical drive, and USB 3.0.

I bought this CyberPowerPC after reading mixed reviews online but good reviews on bestbuy.com..... I purchased this as a laptop replacement for an Asus laptop that just completely crashed last week and had been upgraded a bunch ( optical drive removed and had a pny 960gb xlr8 ssd, main 2.5" hd removed and replaced with pny 960gb xlr8 ssd, Corsair Vengeance 16gb ram kit, and a upgraded Intel Core i7 2635QM from the factory Intel Core i5 3210m). I need a desktop that would do a better job than my 6 year old modded laptop, so I chose this CyberPowerPC. I had wanted a desktop for a year or so and contemplated a gaming pc but knew I didn't want to spend more than $1000 because I would eventually start modding it like I did my laptop and my $1000 desktop would become a $3500 new car (meaning there goes me buying my new car this year). So when my laptop died last week (an ASUS K55A-BBL4 that started as a $600 laptop 6 years ago and died with 2 $500 ssd's , a $300 processor, and $150 ram) I wanted to just get a basic gaming pc to start out with thqat would become a starter for my later, evil thoughts. I have had this CyberPowerPC GUA1200BST since Saturday and i have already added 2 Thermaltake 120mm RIING Blue LED fans on the top parts of the case, and upgraded the 350w psu to an EVGA 600w 80 PLUS Certified (100-W1-0600-K1) twin rail. Its not a modular power supply but for $49 was a great deal and took less than 30 minutes to install.
If your looking for a great starter gaming rig to add or upgrade then this is it. CyberPowerPC's warranty lets you modify the pc as long as no physic damage comes of it. anything can be changed. The next modification will be the ram and the sound card. This gaming rig does come with a Gigabit Motherboard, MSI AMD RX460 2GB GPU, ADATA 2x4gb ram, so well known brands are inside this machine and the case is very modular. very easy to add ssd's (took both of the ssd's from my laptop and put them in here (there is quick rack mounts)

This is a very nice pc for gaming! I opened the package and everything was ready. I didn't have to put anything together, for one exception being the wifi adapter. The only con I would have to say about this computer is that it comes with many drivers and recovery CD's, but it doesn't have a disc drive or slot for that matter. You can still download drivers online, so it isn't much of a problem. All in all, it is a great pc!

Bought two of these entry level gaming pcs for my sons. They are both up and running already and couldn't be happier. No issues with setup and the graphics card, AMD Radeon RX 460, received great reviews. So far all of there games look and run great! Really good buy!

This is a simple way for young and old people to join the pc/gaming pc community. The overall build of the pc is very well made as well as appealing to the eye both in store and at home. So far this computer is of course fast at running any type of online searches or programs. The only thing I had questioned about this pc would be the graphics card, the AMD Radeon RX 460 which is the heart of the build for a good gaming experience, but after doing plenty of research on the graphics card alone, I was pleased to see that it can run mostly all games at High quality as well as above or around 40 fps. The only time this pc wouldnt be ideal is for people that are huge gamers and worry about getting the best quality as well as frame rate from the graphics card. All games have different results in frame rate which mean you may have to lower your games quality settings which isn't a big deal and isn't a problem for most games. Overall this PC with the amazing RGB lighting as well as the keyboard and mouse that are included are a great bundle for anyone looking to enter the PC world or for someone looking for an upgrade in preformance. Great build for the price!

Abosuletely satisfied. Setup was easy, runs fast and plays PUBG higher that anticipated. The fan came tightened but the blades were hitting the cover. I loosened up the screws about a 1/4 turn and doesnt hit the screen anymore. I'm overall more than satisfied for the price and the performance.
