User Reviews for CyberPower CyberPower Gamer Ultra 7500SE

  • Reviewed by: Flip

    Duration of ownership: 1 Day

    Strengths: none

    Weaknesses: cheap construction, noisy, poor tech support

    Overall Evaluation: I just received my cyberpower pc and thus far am very dissapointed. There was no system documentation included. They obviously have way too many orders and cannot keep up with demand because it took them 3 weeks to process my order. Cheap plastic construction. They claim a 72hr burn in/QA. I seriously doubt that this happens as there are several problems with the system I just ordered. The system fans are very loud and annoying. The "free" games were not included. The neon light add-on does not work. Tech support is not 24/7. You call and have to leave a message. I am still waiting for a call back. Also no response from email sent to Tech Support. Stick with the name brands....you get what you pay for. If they happen to correct these problems, I'll edit this post. Not holding my breath though... :-(

What You Should Know about the CyberPower Gamer Ultra 7500SE

A PC With Little Included RAM Can Do Light Work

This system offers less than 1GB of memory, which is the bare minimum that any full-featured new computer should include. Whether this amount of RAM is optimal for you depends on the PC's operating system: Windows Vista and Apple's Mac OS X don't run well with less than 1GB, Windows XP is fine with 512MB and not too bad with 384MB, and Windows 98 is good with 256MB. Depending on the distribution, Linux can run with as little as 128MB, but most Linux users are better off with at least 512MB--and 1GB is better.

The more installed memory your PC has, the more applications you can run smoothly at once, and the better the system will perform. Upgrading memory in a desktop after you purchase the PC is a snap, but usually it's worthwhile to buy the amount of memory you want preinstalled with the system.
