This system is so awesome, it’s overwhelming! This is my first full-fledged desktop PC after years of using laptops and all-in-ones, and talk about an INITIATION lol It handles all of my RPG games fantastically and with room to spare! The packaging is amazing and the extreme care taken with all of the parts I very much appreciated. This felt like getting a car. For any other first-timers, I’ll reiterate what the manufacturer will tell you: READ ALL DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY. Especially about hooking up monitors and getting the right connectors...——Some pointers below, if anyone’s interested——ABOUT CONNECTORS (for Beginners like me): Location, Location, Location!The instructions will stress the importance of plugging cords into the proper places on the mother board. I misread the instructions, making the mistake of plugging my monitor’s display cord into the wrong port getting “no signal” on my screen. This is a common mistake as well, so if anyone’s having trouble connecting their PC to a monitor and you KNOW nothing’s wrong with your brand new Cyberpower? Chances are it’s just a wrong-port situation. (Another PLUS: this PC comes with everything you need, but there are empty brackets to install more horsepower later on if you want (RAM, HDD, etc), which is dope.NECESSITIES? A handy medium screwdriver (for accessing the PC case) or a handy starter tool kit with one in it; plenty of desk space, and a flashlight for indirect lighting. A PC/Motherboard cart: I found this helpful because only having to swivel the PC around on wheels to reach the back, made unboxing/connecting more of a stress-free experience, especially as my first time.While everything is already assembled and ready to go, unpacking was a gingerly process. You don’t just get instructions for the PC but also for everything that comes with it respectively. Workspace surface area is a must since this PC is a bit of a behemoth (more lengthy than wide). You don’t have to lift weights to own this thing, but it does take some finessing; more awkward to carry than heavy (my upper-body strength is ZERO, ok?). The package it arrives in makes it more heavy than it actually is, so once out of the box, it’s very manageable. Plenty of “up-right” room on a floor in my case but you’ll likely be putting this PC on its side upon unboxing, including every-now-and-then again afterwards for maintenance, dusting, etc. The bigger desk you have, more tables in your workspace (or floor space if you prefer), the smoother your life will be in taking care of this thing.
