Don't buy. I bought one and regreted it so bad. It was DOA and was a hassle sending it back.
you can risk it if you want but they are using a APU with a GPU for some unknown reason so games that are CPU heavy aren't going to run well at all and upgrading it is impossible since it uses Am3+ socket.


I say stay far away.
Not bad, but change the power supply to something that isn't non-generic (EVGA, Thermaltake, Corsair), and the RAM to something non-generic (Corsair/G. Skill). I also recommend a aftermarket cooler than the AMD certified CPU cooler.

I can definitely help you with a CyberPowerPC configuration if you would like, but I will need to know your budget. :)
