Sorry, Rishwin and the other guys who gave me advice to build your own computer. Tbh, I've seen too many horrible reviews of DOA and RMA. I'm also lazy and never built a computer so if anything goes wrong I would not be able to tell which part is messing up the start up either. So I didn't want to deal will all this stuff so I decided to get a pc from cyberpowerpc.

Came out to be $800 with rebate $30 off and checked Newegg for prices came out to be a total of $950.

So I think I saved $150 plus, cyberpowerpc gave me 3 year warranty labor and 1 year warranty of parts :)

I'm excited, also ibuypower is overpriced so i went with this one.

Regards.

P.S. What do you think about my specs? and the price?

Also it's coming with blackwidow razer keyboard :)

most prebuilt computers void your warranty when you open them, you MUST order already all that's going to be inside, based on the size of your SSD you're probably thinking of adding a hard drive, well if it's gonna be an internal hard drive it would void your warranty to add it after you ordered it

also the CPU is meh

I don't know where you buy your prebuilt computer from but I highly doubt they will void my warranty after I open it.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention I have an Toshiba external 750GB hard drive so I just got the SSD instead.

Horrible SSD, horrible CPU, average motherboard, absolutely no idea why it's water-cooled or why you need a 750W PSU for all of that.

The $500 budget PC from the buying guide will out-perform this easily.

At least if you had built it, let us troubleshoot any problems, take out the part and RMA it, put it back in and you're ready to go. If anything happens with this, you'll have to ship the entire PC back to them i'd imagine.

Water cooling came in for free idk. And 750W, the people there said its required for me to get at least 700W, and corsair brand was the best one. Idk lol. Now that I think about it I think I might of gotten ripped off.

Without that useless water cooling, that system needs less than 500W.

$100 for CPU
$100 for Mobo
$100 for PSU
$170 for GPU
$150 for SSD
$100 for keyboard
$100 for case

Sure, all the money you spent is there in parts, but the same performance could have been achieved by cutting back on certain components. They didn't rip you off, but they probably convinced you that you needed things which you in fact don't.

Cyber power is known for hardware failure after the first year.
I used iBuyPower for mine but, thats because my bud works there so i got about 500 off and a full parts and labor 3 year warranty rather then the limited one. so if my liquid cooling happens to explod in my comp in the middle of year 3 i get a brand fuckin new comp.
