Okay, question time. I found a pre-built cyberpower PC on Walmarts website. Here is the the link. https://www.walmart.com/ip/CYBERPOWERPC-Gamer-Xtreme-VR-GXiVR3800WST-w-Intel-i7-8700-Nvidia-GeForce-GTX-1060-6GB-16GB-Memory-240GB-SSD-1TB-HD-Windows-10-Home-64-bit-Gaming-PC/801771541

I can't build this that cheap. I plan on doing only 1080p gaming. What have your experiences been with cyberpower. I am a little worried that motherboard is not specified and does not mention number of ram modules. as far as the storage hard drive. I don't care I have plenty of good drives in my house. Thank you in advance

We see far too many instances of substandard assembly, and crappy parts where no one notices. (PSU, motherboard)
