CyberpowerPC Desktop PC Gamer Ultra 2044 Phenom II X4 955 (3.20 GHz) 4 GB DDR3 500 GB HDD NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit

Pros: Okay, I've gotten everything fixed since, I'll just say for the PC itself, everything is awesome especially for the price.

Cons: I did get a BSOD 3 weeks after purchase, and getting hold of tech support was a bit of a pain, but I'll tell you why.

Overall Review: Firstly, when it comes to getting hold of CyberPower, you have to actually call their tech support number, otherwise you get put in line behind all of the other people that are calling. What I mean is, you can reach them more directly. The number is under the Contact Us tab right on newegg for CyberPower I think, but if it's not there, the number is 888-937-5582. Call THAT one for CyberPower and you'll get hold of someone right away. I have to stress that once I reached their Tech Support, they were able to diagnose and fix the problem in about 30 minutes, and they took care of me really well. They really did care about getting everything sorted out, which meant a lot to me after how patient I was with everything. Basically, what I want to say is that if anything goes wrong with your CPPC, use the number I listed above to reach them so that you're not put on hold, or in the back of a line or anything like that because once you reach someone, you'll get taken care of.

Pros: It was a fantastic PC for 3 weeks until literally the day after I submitted my review of it.

Cons: Now I've got a blue screen, which I believe is a problem with the video card, only there's no way for me to diagnose it. I can't get in with Safe Mode, I can't even get in with Command Prompt to try and format the thing. It is probably something that a tech support person could figure out if...

Overall Review: CyberPower would answer their tech support calls. I called yesterday and waited on hold for 30 minutes before having someone register my product and then tell me, and this I find hilarious, that Tech Support would call me back sometime in the evening. Well, I waited all night and got no call back. I've called in three more times and been forced to leave a message each time. I'm pretty upset about this as I just started this semester at school and now I have no computer to use, and they have shown no real intention to help me. If I can't get hold of someone other than an answering machine soon, I'm going to want a refund so that I can go with a Dell or a Compaq or some respectable PC company that actually listens to its customers. It's such a shame, because I was really loving it for the three weeks that it worked, too.

Pros: Fired right up out of the box. Clean inside, everything in it's place and tight. Wiring was pristine, maybe a little too tight as I had to find a small set of cutters to get access to power for my other drive I installed. PC sits about 8 inches away on top of my desk, I really can't complain about the noise what so ever. Bought this PC in anticipation of FFXiV, tested the benchmark and passed it with flying colors. Delivery was on time as usual. Tiger Direct is no longer in my favorites folder. =) Only NewEgg

Cons: The DVD drive is LOUD! I despise Windows 7, but nothing against the computer itself. Some vid issues running BattleField BC2 at max, but that was only after 5-6 hours of constant beating.

Overall Review: Nice setup for the money. 750 Watt power is sufficient for the setup. More USB ports than I could possibly ever use. Front door is nifty I guess, but impractical. Just make them hard points next time. Appreciate all the docs and support inside the MB box. Hooked up my other drive without a hitch, required zero mapping, I love the bracket holders versus the screws to hold the internal drives in their slots. I think CyberPower did a great job and NewEgg for promoting them.

Pros: Great Computer it's fast, great price for the spec, and it's quiet. No problems so far it's worked right out of the box. One of the best decision I made. I was skeptical at first because their was only one review but I google the spec and I call my niece who builds computers to look at it and everything came back great about it, so i brought it. I ordered it on 4/20 and it came 4/22 a day earlier then expected. Its lightening fast I can play all my games with no problems, which is a blessing :)

Cons: Just one: usb slots in the front the way the compartment doesnt open up wide enough to easily slip in plugs. But it's not enough of a problem to take a egg off of the rating.

Overall Review: This is a big upgrade compared to my last computer which was a CompaQ and the one before that a Dell which both sucked when it came to games. So i'm loving this one thank u Newegg and Cyperpower.

Pros: Everything seemed ok at first, started up-after getting the power button to work properly- ran the game I was playing at the time with minimal problems, was actually decently quiet...

Cons: BSOD, random reboots, hard freeze, overheating.

Overall Review: Had this computer for a little over a month, started randomly resetting, now it freezes, reboots, or goes to blue screen. Ran the memtest that came with windows, and allowed windows to try and "fix" the problem. Hardware malfunction was the only conclusive response. I'm beginning to think the "gosh darn" computer is overheating in my nice cool house no less. I can't get the thing to work for more than five minutes before it locks up or goes to b.s, UNLESS I place my floor fan right against the case, then it works fine! I'm 11 days outside of neweggs return period, so I'll be dealing with the jungle that is Cyberpower's customer assistance. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN PURCHASING THIS COMPUTER. At the very least purchase the warranty! I'm not sure how this "chocolate treat" thing even made it to 4 stars (people need to learn to WAIT to review things-as opposed to "I opened it, and it WORKED! Played my game-on my GAMING RIG! Sweeeet!!! 5 STARS!!! give it at least a month, eh?)

Pros: No hardware issues at all! After some initial problems with my monitor (see Other thoughts), I was up and running without any issues. Huge upgrade over my old overclocked rig that fizzled.

Cons: There is a 'pop-out' unit in the front with two USB drives, mic/headphone jack, but when you push it in for it to pop out, it only comes out halfway and I have to pull it out the rest of the way.

Overall Review: My 22" Samsung Syncmaster 2253BW didn't play very well initially with this desktop - after the initial 'Starting Windows' splash screen my monitor would turn off and wouldn't pick up the digital signal. I had to reinstall Windows 7 from the provided CD to get it working. That was more of a problem with my monitor than the Cyberpower, though.

Pros: - Super quiet - Runs at a constant low temp - Easy access to components inside case - 2 empty slots to add RAM - USB 3.0 ports I really like this processor too

Cons: - Cheap mouse/keyboard - Front access ports are in an awkward position I guess I could list a faulty video card under here too

Overall Review: When I first received this unit, it would not boot due to the video card not being secured in the motherboard. This was more than likely do to the shipping process and not a big deal. Once I got the card secure, I now have 4 sets of vertical lines that project on my monitor at all times. It is barely noticeable, but for a perfectionist like my self, this just doesn't cut it... CyberPower PC emailed me and are in the process of an exchange for a new card, so I guess thats all they can do. I installed an ASUS network card with mine and it works great.

Pros: Got it in 3 days: Tennessee-Vermont. This machine rocks! Everything came plugged, nothing hanging or disconnected. There seems to be a divide here in the reviews about the fan. If you have a laptop or some old computer, yeah, it's gonna be a little louder obviously, but honestly, it's pretty quiet. Plays everything I've thrown at it on max settings (Dragon Age, Crysis, COD MW2) with 0 lag, it's a beautiful thing. What I don't get is why this is so cheap, the parts alone+OS for this machine add up to this, if not, more. This is a definite buy if you're looking for awesomeness as cheap as it comes.

Cons: 500Gib Hard Drive is on the small side, but there's plenty of room to upgrade it whenever if you need more.

Overall Review: Newegg has great prices on Hard Drives, if you need more, get it here. Also, with a fan this big, it's good to keep it at an elevated height. If it sits on the floor, it will collect dust faster and you'll have to clean it more often than you normally would.
