Alot of bang for the buck!!.
I've had the CybertronPC Shockwave X6-9600 Green Gaming desktop for about a week now and i have to say i am very impressed with the performance of this computer. From everyday web surfing and opening and closing various programs to the most demanding online Call of Duty Black Ops 3 game, this computer flies!! Graphics are set to the max and the video is absolutely amazing. Even the on board Realtec audio sounds amazing on my computer speakers. I downloaded Coretemp cpu temp monitor and even when i,m playing on line video games the hottest i,ve seen the cpu is 84 f. degrees. My last computer ran at 110 f. degrees. I had a small issue getting the computer to sleep/wake and the Cybertron tech support stayed on the phone with me for an hour while we narrowed down the problem which turned out to be my Razor keyboard and mouse software. I would definitely recommend this computer to anyone!

Good gaming desktop, assembly quality control could be better
For the record I purchased the CybertronPC Shockwave X6-9600 Gaming Desktop - AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz Hexa-Core Processor.I will start with my overall impression and then get into the individual components for those who care about that.My overall impression of the desktop is that it works fine for what I bought it for. It is a nice mid-range gaming desktop. It will run most games at the top graphics setting, the newer graphics intensive games it will run at average to above average graphics settings. The NVIDIA GeForce Experience that comes with the video card will optimize the graphics settings of each game for you. I would have easily rated it 5 stars except for a big miss in putting mine together. When I first fired it up it began to shut down suddenly. I quickly figured out it was overheating but it took me a while to find out why. I received it on a Friday so tech support was out until Monday. I cracked the case and after some trial and error found that the rear 12 CM fan that blows through the liquid cooling radiator was not plugged in. The cord was still in its twist tie and tucked behind the fan. After unwrapping that and finding where to plug it in on the mother board the problem was solved. That was sloppy assembly that could have resulted in damage to the CPU from overheating. But the shut downs protected it and it works fine after corrected the error.The case is a Cybertron - Mechatron PGS-B. Overall a nice case, very spacious and easy to open and work on. The bottom, one side and back are all mesh covered to increase air flow and keep it cool. There are two top mounts, two side mounts and one bottom mount for extra fans in addition to the front and rear fans. Only the front and rear fans are included (there is also a fan attached to the video card). One of the top mounts is blocked by the liquid cooling hoses so only one (the front one) is available. Has lots of bays for hard drives that are easily accessed only one is taken up so there is room to install extra hard drives if necessary. The front bays are taken up by the DVD and CoolTouch-E unit. Cable management is excellent with many rubber holes and space to run cables around outside the motherboard so they are not tangled up inside the case.The motherboard is a MSI 760GMA-P34 (FX). I rate this as just good. Plenty of slots for expansion cards. Only two memory slots that are both used so no expansion of memory without removing both and replacing them. Two fan power connections, one for CPU that is used for the liquid cooling pump and one AUX slot which is where I plugged the rear 12 CM fan in.The video card is the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050. The description lists it as the NVIDEA GTX 960 but the software and stamp on the card shows it as the 1050 instead. 2GB video RAM. Solid performance. Comes with MSI Afterburner software that can be used to overclock the graphis card. I don't do this but did override the fan speed using it to allow the fan to speed up as the graphics card heats up.The processor is the AMD FX-6300 with 6 core. No problem here, I have used AMD processors in the past and found them solid. Rated at 3500 MHz but it automatically overclocks up to 4100 MHz as needed according to the documentation. Mine for the most part will go up to 3800, rarely see it over that.Hard Drive is Seagate FireCuda 1TB HD. Not much to say one way or the other on that, it does the job.The processor does have a liquid cooling unit on it. There is no manual for it and no markings on it so I don't know the exact unit that is on there but it seems pretty standard. The main unit with the pump is attached over the top of the CPU, two hoses run to the back fan where the radiator is mounted and the back fan blows the air out through the radiator. Only one fan, I see most have two on either side of the radiator but this only has the one.Has a CoolTouch-E fan control unit on in the front by the DVD. This allows you to control the fan speed but is only hooked to the front fan. The front fan is a 20 CM fan inside the front cover that blows cool air into the comptuer. Pretty quiet even at top speed. The CoolTouch unit allows you to slow it if it is to noisy. The CoolTouch-E can control three more fans. I purchased three additional fans. Mounted one to bottom blowing into the case, one to the mesh side blowing into the case and one on the front top blowing out of the case. All three were easy to connect to the CoolTouch-E for power and control. I purchased AeroCool fans for all three. Two are 14 CM (bottom and side blowing in) and one is 12 CM (top blowing out) but all the fan brackets will hold either 12 CM or 14 CM fans so it doesn't matter what size you get.That is all, nice unit, would defiantly buy again but next time I will crack the case and check all the connections before firing it up. Sloppy assembly or shipping can ruin a good unit as it almost did for me.Thanks for reading hope it helps you.

Great gaming computer
Great gaming computer. I was surprised at the size of this....it is huge! I wish it was in a smaller case.....BUT it performs wonderful, loads fast, and I am very satisfied with this purchase! Bought this to play the new expac on WOW. I am a happy camper!UPDATE: I have given this lower stars as I have tried to add a gaming keyboard and gaming mouse to my system. With this computer these 2 items an my headset wont work together. Been thru there tech support twice now. did not fix the problem. Had to go back to my old keyboard and mouse. The others were gifts and had to be sent back. I will not buy this brand again and I suggest you do some research before you buy, since the main website is not available either. Going back to Dell.
