Cyber power is having a November sale and i was looking at getting the extreme gamer 5200 at the reduced price.
but i want to know if it is really worth it.
i was am not very good at piecing together a pc so i would like to just buy one pre built should i purchase this computer and if so should i change anything too different parts to maximize gaming quality.
keep in mind i only have around 1650$ u.s to spend

here are the specs and price of the computer
thank you
 
$1650 can get you a top tier gaming computer if you build it yourself. Its really not that hard. Unless you do not know how to use a screwdriver and ground yourself, anyone can do it.

I would recommend spending some time to watch this video:

Which outlines every aspect of the computer build. With Black Friday coming up, you would be able to save big on components.

How many FPS do you think i can get playing BF4 at the different setting ?
 


Considering you have two GTX 770 in SLI I am betting you will get at least 60FPS on Ultra settings in BF4.

Why would you pay good money for a rig only to buy last year's hardware? :heink:

I would not under any circumstances buy anything from Cyberpower, they overcharge for parts that are less than mediocre, use mystery components, and have below average technical support. Build your own, but get the new hardware. Something like this:

That will be far better than any Cyberpower garbage you could get, and has newer hardware at that.
