Is this comp good

[imtiax]

I am thinking about buying this computer http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/cyberpowerpc-cyberpowerpc-gamer-xtreme-desktop-computer-featuring-intel-core-i7-2600k-gxi230-english-gxi230/10170687.aspx?path=39888629ad33ba1a2156e6597d00af7aen02

From a bestbuy employee at a discount.

Is it a good comp

 

[_Pez_]

yeah, it is a good PC. In my opinion it is expensive. but is good PC.

It depends on how much a discount. At $1300.00 you could get higher performance parts if you built it yourself.

It has a 2600K. for gaming, a 2500k would be just as powerful and save $100.00.

Hello, here is the information posted from your link:

English only

Intel Sandy Bridge Core i7-2600K CPU delivers incredible power for every task

8GB DDR3 system memory ensures efficient multitasking performance

1TB HDD lets you store thousands of photos and songs, and hours of video

1GB ATI Radeon HD 6870 graphics offers fluid visuals that are brilliant and smooth

Built-in 12X Blu-ray player

700Watt PSU

Pre-installed Windows 7 Premium 64-Bit

It's a very well-rounded computer. A bit on the expensive side though - you could probably build one for 3/4ths of the price of that system (with similar or better specifications).

Looks like it supports SLI/CF but i'm not sure which (maybe both).

All in all I would rate that system about 7 out of 10. (-1 for the price, -1 not knowing what brand of motherboard and power supply, and -1 for mediocre GPU (its actually alright, but they could have put a better one in it).

Oh I'm getting it for around $400

For $400, that is a great deal. ..One might also say "HOT"...

BUY BUY BUY! B4 its too late...

 

[xtremegamer2da-max]

wow ia m so speachless that is like the best deal of all time

 

[Chainzsaw]

The i7 2600k is ~300

The 1TB HDD is around ~150.

Your getting a whole system for the price of 2 components!

Unless your just trolling us lol.

No...My friend's father has worked at bestbuy for almost a decade now as the district manager so he gets these crazy employee benefits.

I might post pic's after I get it.

I would find out which power supply it has in it. If its the cyberpower branded one or the xtreme gear branded 700w . I would get a replacement as soon as possible.
both those brand of power supplys are just a nightmare waiting to happen.
\other than that it looks to be a nice system for the price your are going to get it for.
