CyberPower Gamer Infinity SLI KO QX6800 Review

[One4yu2c]

Hot on the heels of Easter Sunday, Intel drops a golden egg in the form of their fastest quad-core processor to date, the QX6800. Before the dust can even settle on this new part, CyberPower has added the 2.93GHz slice of Silicon to their high end gaming configurations, and we managed to sneak more than just a peek at a fully decked out rig, complete with a factory overclock.

I enjoyed reading the reivew, very well done Paul. In regards to the cost of a 4.5k rig goes, however, one would expect to be treated to those 'special touches' that separate the botique dealers from their OEM counterparts when spending that kind of money. Reading the article, I received none of those feelings. I basically felt that CyberPower bought the best components money could buy, stuffed a case with it all, threw in a T-Shirt and demanded four thousand dollars for it all.

I dunno. To me, it really cheapens the idea that you are buying something special and hand crafted, when vendors just start throwing parts in a case and proclaim it as being the best there is. And they are right. It is the best there is, component wise. It's just a shame that there is no real satisfaction in knowing that while you may have the best parts, the rest of the build is completely botched.

Good review. I'm not real thrilled with Cyberpowers system but if they want to give me one then who am I to refuse.
