Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This review is for the (now) $750 i5, GTX 1060, 8GB DDR4, 240 GB SSD, 1TB HDD model. First I would like to say that this is a great deal for a basic/starter gaming PC. If you want to get into PC gaming but don't know how to build one, or are just too busy to take on the task yourself, then this is the machine for you. Sure, it's not the absolute best of the best, but for $750 it is definitely a worthwhile starter build. The RAM is good, the motherboard, though it is Cyberpower's own brand, is respectable. The SSD and HDD are both nice quality WD drives. The graphics card in mine is an MSI GTX 1060, not some no-name brand so that was a nice surprise. The fans work great and the system stays cool even after a good long gaming session. I play mainly DBD, so I didn't need a beast of a machine, but it runs smooth as silk on ultra settings, giving me a constant 80+ FPS. Really, the only complaint I have about the system components is it only having 8GB or RAM. With the mid-range Ballistix RAM they used, they could have thrown in a full 16GB at minimal extra cost to them. The other nit-picky issues I have are purely cosmetic. First, I wish the keyboard was backlit. I mean, the logo lights up on it, why can't we have nicely lit keys too? Second, the side panel is acrylic. I realize the product description doesn't specify tempered glass or acrylic, but the box is covered with warning labels that say "Fragile Tempered Glass" so I was disappointed when I popped them off to find them to be plastic. They look nice though. Al in all, this is a great build for someone jst starting out. Though it runs smooth as silk as is, it is certainly future-ready as well. It has plenty of space and compatible components that will make it easy to upgrade for years to come. If you're on the fence about this PC, don't be. It is a great way to open the door to PC gaming.
