The specs look great for the price, but it honestly feels too good to be true. Maybe I'm just being paranoid.
This was what I was considering originally...

The specs don't look much different, but to be honest I don't know what most of their descriptions mean other than the CPU and card, so I'd be really glad if I could get some advice...

What is your budget. The problems I see with both systems are:

- Video cards are only 3GB 4GB variants. The 6GB 8GB ones are better.
- At the budget the I7 of the second system seems overkill. The money saved could be used for an SSD or the better video card
- You are stuck paying for those keyboard/mouse combos that are included. You don't get to choose what is comfortable for you.

Here is an option, if you don't want to build yourself. Go to the store and check out the mice/keyboards. Find the one you like. Go to your local PC shop or an online store like NCIX and spec the parts you want and have them assemble, test, and ship them out to you. You get the keyboard/mouse you want and the exact hardware within your budget...

If you give a budget, we can assemble a PC and see how that price matches up with the Cyberpower PCs.
