Any problems with this Prebuilt PC?

Mxdude190 · Jun 7, 2017

Excluding the avoidable build cost and assuming CyberPowerPc does an adequate job are there any problems/risks/shortcomings with the default components?

Thank you.

It's insane to have a 7700k, 2tb SSD, 32gb optane (for who knows why I suppose to set money on fire) (I know it has a place but not in a $1800 gaming rig) a 1080ti.... And then only 8gb memory? No wifi already installed, and a 80+ certified psu... An no monitor.

Could you point me in the direction of a more well rounded prebuilt PC? Or will I likely have to buy parts?( I have a local guy who I'm sure would build it) Can I get a well rounded i7 7700k and 1080i for around $2k-2.5k(including monitor). I only game, so I recently decided the i7 was a better fit for me than Ryzen, but I'll admit I still know very little and am just looking for the best gaming result for 2-2.5k. Thanks

I will agree with Supahos, the value of the complete system is a lot of overhead cost to build it up for you (but they offer 3 year service), and for some people that cannot/do not want to build their own PC, this is where people go, this includes Dell XPS series computers....

just to give you perspective, below is has close I could make the parts as cheap as I can for the same system and by my numbers they are charging 200$ for building and 3 years of service.

Is what I'd build personally on that budget

Vic 40 · Jun 7, 2017

Don't forget Ryzen,the 1600 is alot cheaper and maybe not as good in games as the i7 looking at average fps,but will hold it's own.

Mxdude190 · Jun 7, 2017

How difficult would it be to assembly that build Supahos. For someone who's never built a computer, but can follow instructions well and has done plenty of mechanical work on vehicles. I can't imagine it'd be more difficult than fully restoring a 1972 F100, but is there a lot of risk involved if improperly assembled? Thanks for the help.

Supahos · Jun 7, 2017

It'll be a piece of cake then. As my sig says im a farmer and build them routinely. The parts only go one place and one direction just take your time and if it won't go don't force it look carefully and make sure it's oriented properly. There are dozens of YouTube videos that can show you how to do anything you get stuck on.

Supahos · Jun 7, 2017

And vic I agree with your 1600 statement, but not on a $2k+ budget. My next two builds will both be ryzen but I'm stopping at around $1500 (1600+1070) the other will be a htpc/steambox when the ryzen apus come out

Mxdude190 · Jun 7, 2017

I was looking at the Ryzen 5 originally with hopes to spend a lot less($1500), but as with everything I buy I find myself continuously upgrading each option. I'd be interested in hearing a cheaper Ryzen 5 alternative build and want to understand the difference when gaming is it really that noticeable? Currently my computer I play league and Csgo comfortably, but the games like ark, dayz, rust, etc they are almost unplayable unless in the lowest settings.

I'm leaning towards The Paladins choice if I decide to spend less without the need for mouse or keyboard that'd be a little over 1500 for the i7 and 1070. Is that about the best you can build for right around $1500? Thanks

went "abit" overboard with the storage so things can be done there.Smallest disk for windows and such,the bigger ssd for game storage like the default for Origin/Steam,the hdd for the rest.

You could look at Samsung drives too like the 850's. Still think that the stock cooler is very nice for what it is so am not adding something else,but you could if wanting ..

Windows seems abit expensive,but is the full (not oem) usb version.
