    Just bought this the day before. Seems to work alright. Bloatware wasn't bad at all. Kinda loud cpu fan but an easy upgrade. Keyboard and mouse are usable but nothing special. Cannot disable the RGB on the mouse. Haven't stressed it yet but pretty sure it can play just about anything.

    Worth it for the CPU

    I bought a Cyberpower PC last year and decided give these guys a try this year. The biggest difference from the two companies is the Cyberpower PC had ALL name brand parts. Luckily I know what I'm doing when it comes to building PC's so I was able to quickly modify this one into a good PC but in order to get a semi modern graphics card you have to buy pre-builts. First off only the motherboard, the graphics card, and the HDD are name brands. I can't find anything on the psu other than made in china, the SSD says "Neo Forza" whatever that means. I would have been much happier if they slapped a cheap WD in there, at least I've heard of them. The CPU cooler was obnoxiously loud even when I was just sitting on the desktop and it just said made in china in large letters, I quickly replaced that with a Noctua cooler that was 60 bucks. The two ram sticks weren't even running at their highest speeds and were a brand I never heard of as well. I replaced those with two sticks of Corsair dominator ram for about 50 bucks. The Neo Forza SSD, just sitting on the desktop is sitting around 40 degrees celsius. For a reference the Sandisk SSD I put in next to it for more storage is running at 28c. The motherboard and graphics card are both Gigabyte, I have used that brand in the past, in fact my first gaming PC from 14 years ago that I still have in my closet and still runs has a Gigabyte motherboard so I know they can definitely last. Other than that this off brand junk really turned me off. For 1500 dollars I expected better. The motherboard is a B560 DS3H AC which runs about $120 on Newegg. The CPU runs $400 on Newegg, that is the nicest component in here. The graphics card should have an msrp of $350 but is going for $800+ right now. The HDD is actually a Seagate Barracuda, which isn't bad but I have no intention of using it. HDD's are dinosaur technology, I would have preferred a name brand SSD and a cheap chinese HDD since I was going to remove it anyway. All in all this would have been a great computer if they didn't go cheap on everything besides the CPU. For 200-300 more you can replace the cheap stuff with quality parts and have yourself a mean machine. With my upgrades I can play all my VR games at maximum settings and the machine is quiet as a mouse, before the upgrades I opened up solitaire and it sounded like a jet was taking off. I will say their in house brand of case is pretty decent and making the upgrades was really easy as they have a cutout in the back so you don't have to take out the motherboard to replace the CPU cooler, and there was plenty of room still to run my wires for the new SSD I put in for more storage. The fans are also in house brand and they are very quiet as well, I only wish they put fans in the top of the case as well. All in all the computer worked out of the box and played all my games with no problems, it was just ridiculously loud and I don't trust cheap unbranded components. I can recommend these guys if you know how to modify a computer.

    I Got 99 Problems But Can't Fix 1

    DELIVERY: Arrived earlier than I expected, but the delivery guy just left it on my doorstep and didn't knock or anything, just drove off with a brand new gaming PC sitting in front of my house. It said "signature required" but I guess he just didn't care... Thankfully I was home and saw him drive away and brought it in. STARTUP: I hooked it up and set it up, downloaded Steam, and played about 10 min of a 12-ish year old game (Left 4 Dead) and it just abruptly turned off and restarted. I thought maybe it was a Windows Update running in the background that caused the restart. It came back on and I relaunched my game, and it shut down again. This happened over and over at random times, sometimes it would last less than 5 minutes with absolutely nothing running, and once it stayed on all night. Typically it would shut off after 15 min. I then realized it wasn't even reading the hard drive either! Just read the solid state drive. TROUBLESHOOTING: Temps were fine, it was not overheating. I had a hard time installing updates and drivers because it would just keep powering off. Checked all the cables, reseated the RAM, reset the CMOS battery, and did a system restore. I tried to the option to "Reset this PC" but that it kept failing and throwing errors. Used Windows Memory diagnostics and nothing was wrong with the RAM. Used Seagate Seatools and tested the hard drive. Talked to the tech support and told them it was probably the power supply but I was given many other things to try first. I tried to reinstalled Windows from USB but that kept failing because it would keep restarting. Used several command prompts to scan and diag, but I got nowhere! There was a corrupted file somewhere but I couldn't figure out what it was. After days of trying all these things, I finally decided to give up and wipe the hard drive. Even that was a problem. Every time I tried to Reset This PC I got failure errors or it would shut down in the middle of it all. I finally after 4 tries was able to clear the computer and reinstall Windows, turned it off, and boxed it up. GOOD BYE!!!

    I love the pc it is very fast and if I’m in the market for another in the future I would most likely buy from them as well. The shipping was fast and the packaging was very nice as well.

    This was a great buy, start up was fast and is good for price and power especially with gpu prices nowadays. you can easily upgrade ram to 32gb and put an aio cpu cooler for even more performance and turn this into a monster pc

    We bought this during black Friday and it was a great deal. Unfortunately, the system had problems upon setup which turned out to be a bad memory module. iBuyPower support was excellent and sent out a new one. Problem solved.

    This gaming system is very nice and right in my budget. I've played on it a little but the key player is my grandson who spends a good amount of time playing after school. I checked all of the systems BestBuy was selling and was able to do a comparison for a couple. This one won and he's so excited about owning this system.
