Purchased this for my son as a starter gaming PC that he can build on as he chooses. Out of the box it is performing so well that I do not see him looking for any upgrades at all. Quickly runs the games he plays online. Just be aware that it does not have built in Wifi. You need to purchase your choice of Wifi connectivity seperate.

This is the first desktop computer I’ve purchased in a long time. And I couldn’t be more happy. It is so fast it connects to all three of my monitors with zero problems. The LED colors are amazing. The one thing I have done is upgraded my ram for meat gig to 16 gig. I bought the course her vengeance. So after I do that everything should be good to go. But I would recommend his computer to anybody and I am looking forward to many years of playing.

Faster downloads, better graphics, cool, color changing clear side showing the inner workings of the PC. Allows games to run at higher resolutions, and run seamlessly. Great value.

Hello,
I was in search of a new computer and decided to purchase this tower because the specifications are great and you can't beat the price. I like the performance of the components and I like how the tower looks.
I'm sure this setup is great for gaming, watching HD movies, listening to music, and doing basic tasks like web browsing/emailing.
So far so good. I'm pleased with my purchase and will recommend it to family and friends.

So, far I have been able to launch and play one of my games (TS3) and get a feel for how my rig runs. Since this is my first gaming rig I can say I am impressed. But disappointed to learn I am limited to what new games I can play.
To play the newer games I will have to upgrade my rig. Also, know you will need to get a windows 10 compatible, wifi adapter usb.
The mouse that came with it is broken nothing a quick call to customer service. I needed help getting my windows copy verified, once I registered with cyberpowerpc it was easy and resulted in a replacement mouse sent.
I chose to ship directly to my house, it arrived a day earlier then it stated at checkout. I chose to track it and good thing as they left it sitting on the porch, in an identifying box.

This is a nice system with just enough power to run all those graphics intensive games that are now prevalent. Easily upgradeable, great buy for the price!

Alright, so for the price point, I'm very impressed. I'm currently running Flight Sim X on max settings with graphics upgrades, Elite Dangerous on medium graphics, and Star Citizen on minimum. While I'm not able to run the latest games at max settings, I didn't spend the money to expect that, and there's plenty of room to upgrade as needed. If you just want to experience the games on the market today smoothly, and don't need to see them at the highest settings possible, I would recommend this. If you absolutely need the highest settings, this isn't going to do, but for me, it's a great value. Oh, and it glows in pretty colors if you ask it nicely using the included remote. Not something I needed or asked for, but it's kinda neat nonetheless.

For the price, and with some additional upgrades (new video card) this is a pretty capable gaming machine for my daughter. The look of it is super cool, but our unit had malfunctioning LEDs (missing colors). Not worth a return, but worth noting. Otherwise, it runs very well, easy to get in and upgrade, and she loves it.

I like this computer because it runs games good if you like to play games. The only thing wrong with this computer is that you need a better graphics card for high end gaming.

We bought this computer for our 13 year old son, who is big into Minecraft as well as games on Steam. Our older home computer would no longer cut it so we decided on this system because of the reviews and specs the computer came with like Windows 10 which we love with the great parental controls. Overall the performance is good, no lag or graphic issues on Minecraft Servers, Skyrim or Sims 4. Very happy with our purchase

I started out looking for a gaming computer because my boyfriend had actually gotten me into Overwatch and my computer, at that time, was not powerful enough to run many games. Since it was also starting to get old and it seemed time to get a new computer, I stumbled upon this one for an affordable $399. This is a really great price if you're a college kid or you want a gaming system that isn't going to cost you an arm and a leg like other companies charge you.
It isn't the most powerful computer out there, I'm sure, but it definitely runs Overwatch perfectly fine on Low-Medium settings. I haven't tried going higher because I simply haven't had the time/care to sit down and mess with settings. This computer isn't going to get you Ultra-quality graphics, but it's still going to run your game to where it's playable.
I love that there is a light-up feature for the side of the computer itself. It's fun to play with the different color settings. However, this computer is a behemoth...it's a really big computer and I had a hard time figuring out where I was going to put it. It ended up having to go underneath my desk, unlike my much smaller previous computer. Don't underestimate how big this one is; if you don't have the space, you may have to end up returning it (which is what I was concerned about initially).
This review is based off of having it for less than a week. So far, so good. The keyboard it comes with is alright (enter key doesn't always work but it's more of an annoyance than anything). I haven't used the mouse yet, but it seems alright, too. If you're a new gamer, or you want a cheap computer that is going to be powerful enough to run your games and still do basic tasks, this computer fits the bill. The inside is very spacious- a good sign that it can be upgraded and updated later down the road. So you may want to consider that, too.

I had a amazing experience buying and using this computer. It was exactly what I was expecting and fits perfects for my gaming needs. I was able to order it for pick up, and pick it up the very next day. I was helped right away and i was in and out within 10 minutes. I got home and the computer was easy to set up and I was able to get right to gaming.

The computer arrived and I noticed a white strip with chips on it laying on the bottom of the computer. I opened the side panel to see what it was and had no clue. I noticed a broken piece of plastic attached to the white strip/ After looking the side panel over, I saw that the white strip was supposed to be attached to the side panel but had broken off. I laid the strip back on the bottom of the computer and then fired up the computer. The white strip with chips on it was actually a light panel. The lights all worked. I wasn't going to return the computer because of a broken piece of plastic that did not affect the workings of the computer.
Unfortunately the computer came with win 10 which I hate but I knew that when I bought it.
I have no problems with the workings of the computer. It runs very quietly and fires up fast.

Ok so I'm going to start out by admitting I have know idea about electronics, but my son has been patiently waiting for a starter gaming pc so I started asking questions, reading reviews and shopping around. I found this one and was a little hesitant because of the sale price I mean you get what you pay for right? Wrong!! I read the reviews and decided to pull the trigger and buy this with the thought that if it sucked I could return it and as of today....it's worth every penny! My son loves it! He said it's a great starter to build up from. He's happy he got his gaming pc and I'm happy I didn't spend an arm and a leg.

This is a descent PC for home use. Set up was fairly easy. Adequate processor and RAM for everyday use.
CON:It's a bit on the heavy side, a little noisy, and needs a better case color than flat black.

When it comes to desktops I ussaly build from scartch. When I read the specs on this one and seen the price I thought I would give it a shot. This PC was for my son hes an avid gamer, PC, Xbox One and Ps4 and he is more then satisfied. He also does video game reviews and this PC handled his video editing software with no issues. I was considering upgrading the video card but he said he didnt need it. Great bang for the buck!
