Taking a more in-depth have a look at the system, we begin with the chassis, the place Cyberpower has opted for the Corsair 3000D RGB Airflow. We’ve not reviewed this mannequin however it’s in style with system integrators, providing a compact mid-tower design. It’s not a very feature-rich case however you get a mesh entrance panel, tempered glass facet panel in addition to three pre-installed 120mm RGB followers performing as intakes on the entrance. Cyberpower has added a plain black 120mm to the rear of the case, performing as an exhaust, whereas the 2 followers on the radiator are additionally exhausting out of the roof.
For the CPU itself, right here we’ve the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, which Leo reviewed earlier within the 12 months. This is a improbable all-round CPU, providing 8-core and 16-threads of Zen4 goodness, however crucially with that added 3D V-Cache which actually shines when gaming, making this the quickest gaming CPU in the marketplace proper now. It’s additionally comparatively low-power, with a 120W TDP, and within the Ultra R77 Pro it’s cooled by Corsair’s H100x RGB Elite, a 240mm AIO with two 120mm RGB followers.
Cyberpower has paired that CPU with 32GB of Corsair Vengeance RGB reminiscence, working at 6000 MT/s. Timings aren’t the tightest, with a CL36 latency, and on the time of writing a CL30 equipment solely prices about £30 greater than the CL36 equipment, so that might have been a wise improve in my view. That stated, we might nonetheless anticipate the CL36 equipment to carry out tremendous and we won’t argue with the capability both.
As for the graphics horsepower, that is offered by AMD’s RX 7900 GRE, a GPU we have not seen earlier than. It was initially launched to simply system integrators, however has simply began to seem on the DIY market. It’s primarily a RX 7900 XT however with 80 Compute Units, and solely 4 energetic Memory Cache Dies, giving it 16GB VRAM and 64MB of Infinity Cache. In concept meaning it ought to slot between the 7900 XT and the 7800 XT however we have loads of recreation benchmarks later within the overview.
All of that {hardware} is plugged into the MSI MAGH B650 Tomahawk WiFi motherboard. We’ve not reviewed this one however I am unable to have any complaints about it from my expertise, it seems to be strong and supplied no points throughout my testing. One factor price noting is that this board does not assist PCIe 5.0, both for M.2 drives or full-size PCIe slots, which is not the finish of the world however is uncommon for a B650 motherboard, particularly at this value. I additionally took a fast look into the BIOS as properly the place Cyberpower left most issues on auto, however XMP and ReBar have been enabled. It’s additionally good to see the system shipped to me with absolutely the newest BIOS model put in, so honest play to Cyberpower for retaining on prime of that space.
In phrases of storage, Cyberpower has fitted a single M.2 drive within the major slot simply above the graphics card, beneath the built-in heatsink. The drive in query is a 2TB Kingston Fury Renegade which we reviewed earlier this 12 months. It’s a strong drive, and whereas it is Gen4 not Gen5, it is nonetheless going to be greater than ok for gaming. If you need to add extra storage down the road, there’s one other Gen4 M.2 slot accessible beneath the graphics card which has its personal heatsink too.
Switching to the again of the case, we will get a have a look at the facility provide, MSI’s MAG A850GL PCIe 5.0. We’ve not reviewed this one, on paper it seems to be tremendous providing 850W capability and 80 Plus Gold certification. The ‘PCIe 5.0′ a part of the identify simply means it does assist a 12VHPWR connector, which we do not want for the 7900 GRE, however the cable nonetheless comes included when you upgraded the GPU down the road.
It’s arduous to fault Cyberpower’s cable administration, too. Everything has been tied down and routed extremely neatly, I actually could not do higher than this in 1,000,000 years. It’s simply good to see how a lot care Cyberpower has given it, relatively than simply shoving all the pieces behind the motherboard tray.
The ultimate factor to say is the RGB scenario. Despite the RGB followers, liquid cooler and reminiscence all being from Corsair, the cooler and followers really plug straight into the motherboard with customary 5V ARGB headers. This means you possibly can’t use iCUE to regulate all of the lighting, as solely the reminiscence exhibits up. You can supposedly use MSI Mystic Light to regulate Corsair’s RGB reminiscence, and it did present up for me, however it doesn’t matter what I did the reminiscence lighting by no means really synchronised with the followers or liquid cooler. I suppose it isn’t the top of the world however I do not assume it is an excessive amount of to ask to have all of the RGB gear in a position to be managed by a single piece of software program.
