So what if he could've built a much better PC. He's happy with it so I don't understand why you slate it.

No one "slated it". Don't try to start an argument now. We asked how much he spent because he claimed it was cheaper than if he were to buy the components himself and build it, that's not true. He paid twice as much for a GTX 970 and i7 rig as he needed to. He came here and asked us for help with a parts list for a PC build a few days before, and then completely ignored us anyway and bought a pre-built, when with his budget, he could have easily got a very high end rig with nice peripherals included.

Could get a better cooler, much cheaper PSU, and would be useful if he got a motherboard..

A mobo might help. I'm not an expert but it could help.

Alright, my bad. He knows he could've built one cheaper but he decided to go prebuilt and people seem to have an issue with that. I know prebuilt isn't the way to go, as I wouldn't, but I mean if he's happy with it that's ok?

No one has an issue with it. It doesn't change anything in our lives, we could care less. The fact is, that he came here, asked us for help(a few times), ignored it and then bought an over-priced pre-built, and proceeded to post here about it, lying that it was under-priced, and a "great deal". That is what is annoying. We tried to help OP not waste his money, and then he went and wasted his money anyway. OP easily over-paid $500+, and for his budget, as I said, could have easily bought a high end rig with nice peripherals.

What don't you guys get I didn't cheapen of parts I didint get 8gb of crappy slow ram I didint get a crappy sea gate hd or a a old 850 Evo ssd or a completely trash cooler on a 6700k. I picked the parts I wanted. I could of made the exact build you just made for $1542 but I didint want that. Do you not get it I got the parts from the build that I posted here before from PC part picker. The exact same parts. Plus extras like led fans and free games and custom wiring. For cheaper then if I would of bought those parts off PC part picker I checked the prices. It was $2000+ on PC part picker and only $1937 on cyber power. So tell me how did I get ripped off.

'crappy slow RAM'
'crappy seagate hdd'
'old 850 evo'

Do you have any idea what you are talking about? If you would care to post the PC you bought, then we can happily show you how much money you wasted, it definitely wasn't cheaper from CyberPowerPC than it would have been if you bought the parts individually lmao.

DDR4, wouldn't notice a difference in a few 100 Mhz
850 is a newer SSD, still decent today.
Seagate HDD's can be some of the most reliable drives in the business, depending on which version you get.

The fact of the matter is that you got a PC from a shitty company, i'm not saying that the PC itself is bad because at the end of the day it is what you wanted, however i'm saying that the company you gave money too is a bad company, they have been known to use cheap hardware unless you specify otherwise, also they can and usually will charge a lot for assembly of the system, you don't seem to have wasted too much money but there have been cases in the past where people have spent near $500 just to have CyberPower to build it for them, which in my eyes is a complete waste of money and therefore, you should have built it yourself.

Have fun with your new PC, hope you don't ever need to deal with their returns department.....

I bought from iBuyPower before.


$750 for a crap PC now compared to a $600 build I built.

This $600 build demolishes my old PC that was $750 that I got around a year ago.
