Nemo Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 We're getting down to the wire for the deadline to enter the 2008 OCC Christmas Giveaway. The Grand Prize in this year's contest is a full gaming system from CyberPower. While you're waiting for the results to be posted, how about checking out what that system has to offer? - http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/cy...amer_xtreme_xt/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Just an update on this system guys. There was a mistake in pricing its $1599 with the thermaltake case not $1499 that was listed. I have corrected the pricing in the article. Still at $1599 pretty smokin deal still Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccokeman Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Still almost 500 bucks less than buying the identical parts yourself. Shipped to your door Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 great review! overclock the Q9450 since the Core i7 was overclocked Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekiM Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 I configured a system on their website as I plan to upgrade the ol' E6600, it's very tempting with pretty good pricing, I'll definitely be considering CyberpowerPC post-Christmas money and paycheck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kendellrt Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 Why did you go out of your way to say "(not a Dell)"? You can build pretty sweet systems with them, too, you just get something closer to what we are looking for right out of the box with a company like CyberPower.

ccokeman Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 I could have used HP, Gateway or MAc. THey use a ton of proprietary stuff and do you honestly think a dell would perform at this level? For the same price! By the way Congratz to the Wacokid who won this system. Treat it well and enjoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know exactly what brand of motherboard, RAM, etc. that they may be using in their systems, only the CPU and GPU type info.

ekiM Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 Compared to other mainstream pre-congifugred PC manufacturers, like Dell, Cyberpower gives the buyer great deals. For example, Dell charges 1.2 Grand to upgrade to the 965 from the 920 in their XPS 730X model, while Cyberpower charges .760 grand to upgrade to the 965 using the Gamer Xtreme XT customizable model Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
