CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme VR Gaming PC, Intel Core i5-11400F 2.6GHz, GeForce RTX 3050 8GB, 8GB DDR4, 500GB PCI-E NVMe SSD, WiFi Ready & Win 11 Home (GXiVR8060A12), Black

I have always had great luck with Cyberpower PCs, I have felt they put together quality machines that won't bankrupt you. I have now had this model for the past 4 months, and have been impressed with how quite it runs, and just how speedy it can be. I had contemplated going with an I7 processor, but really just recognized that was not necessary for my needs. I mostly use this PC for music production, graphics work, and some gaming. I would highly recommend upgrading the RAM, as 8gb is just not enough these days. I opted for the Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 32GB (2 x 16gb) 3200MHz Kit, which really makes this PC fantastic.Beyond performance, I think the case looks fantastic, and I greatly enjoy the clear side panel and plentiful LED lighting.A couple of items to note, when I initially received the PC and turned it on, it did not boot. This wound up being a result of the video card and ram becoming loose in shipment. Just be aware of this, and this is not uncommon to find in any desktop. If you encounter an issue of not booting, just carefully confirm everything is seated. If you plan to add an additional HD or SSD, be aware that the bays for this may be found on the back side on the bottom portion under the mother board. While power SATA cables are included, the data SATA cables are not, so you will need to add this. About the only thing I do not care for on the case, is that the power supply is hidden, and difficult to get to. While I have not spent that much time looking into this, it seems like it would take more work than it should to replace (or to even find the specs for it).All in all, this is another great machine from Cyberpower PC. Great job continuing to hit it out of the park!

day 1. 12/8/22 Just hooked up the PC and i am writing this review from the new PC. Before i go on.. i want to make clear what i am reviewing because that was the cause of my 1 con.I am reviewing CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme VR Gaming PC GXIVR8060A12 which came with:ASRock B560M-C/AC micro-atx motherboardIntel Core i5-11400F 2.6GHz,500 GB WD Blue SN570 M2 driveGeForce RTX 3050 8 GB with 2 fans8 GB XPG ADATA AX4U320038G16A DDR4 3200 ram .EVGA 600W Gold 80 plus power supply4 RGB case fans with remotewired gaming keyboardwired gaming mousehalf dozen of 1 ..... 6 of the other- The case is plenty big enough for a DVD drive. wish it could be installed by removing 1 fan.. but no go.- no SD card reader- Why do i have to have a stupid Microsoft account to even turn this thing on. so dumb.- would have liked to have had the MotherBoard book in the package. but i can Easly download itPros:good price. good spec.. good components. good gaming pc for THIS price.arrived exactly on the day it said it would.Unigine benchmark score of 11087 right out of boxCon.Really just one complaint causing a 2 star drop. I read the reviews and they said an internal drive could be installed easily. I pulled off the back cover and there is room for 3 extra drives. but NO rails to install them. I looked in the box but nothing. No way to install the storage drive i had in my old PC. The reviews must have been for a different Cyberpower PC.I'm going to go to cyberpowder's website and try to order some rails. If i can't get any. this thing is going back.day 2:Cyberpower responded to me and suggested some coolermaster HDD rails. They also provided me a link to Coolermasters site to buy the rails. Back to a 4 star . The rails that will work arehttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WGTPBFH?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailsfinal initial review- 12/12/22rails arrived today. I installed them onto the hard drives and they and fit in flawless. The RGB case fan lights can be turned on and off with the remote. They go off when the computer shuts down.The RGB lights on the motherboard stay on all the time. ASrock has software "ASRock's RGB Polychrome Utility" that should control this and allow you to turn them off when the PC shuts down. I haven't played with it yet but i will.I installed my two SATA drives from my old PC and they are working perfectly. I also removed the 8GB of XPG ram and replaced it with 16 GB of Cosair. 16 gib was only $8 more than a single 8GB stick. The Bios picked it up and is running dual channel automatically.My GPU fans were not coming on so i panicked and contacted Cyberpower tech help again. As with the HD rails they responded the next day but in truth i freaked out for nothing. I ran a stress test and both fans did come on when they needed to as the GPU heated up..Cyberpower's customer service moved review from 4 to 5 stars.

The performance is pretty nice and when you play with a very as well. The memory capacity is also adequate enough for when you need a pc like this to start pc gaming. The heat level is also nice even with it being 3 months of me having the pc so far. The power consumption works well while having the option to let the pc sleep to conserve energy. The power supply is just as good too. I like that there is a total of 6 USB ports and a port for a usb-c cable as well. The good thing about it, appearance wise, would be the 2 buttons next to the aux port that let's change between the PC's lighting options.
