Undoubtedly one of the highest-spec machines we’ve had through the doors at Vortez, but does it warrant that £3999 price tag? We think it does, on the whole, and we’ll conclude our reasons why now.
First off, if you’re looking for outright performance from all angles, you’ll struggle to beat the X129 Ti D5, the Intel 12900KF processor absolutely munches through tasks, with the 32GB 4800MHz DDR5 memory helping things along nicely. Every test we threw at it was handled without any hassle, with some of the best results we’ve seen. So if it’s video editing, photo tweaking, code compiling, simulations, whatever you want, you’ll be fine with this.
Gaming performance is also spectacular, all the way up to 2160p, even with graphics settings cranked right up. The 3090Ti, as you’d expect, really does come into its own when supplied with a partner like the 12900KF and 32GB of DDR5 memory, and thanks to the blistering speeds from the Kingston NVMe drive, you won’t be waiting long for games to load up either.
The case is set up to look fantastic, with the custom hard tubing, wrap-around clear panels right around the chassis, masses of ventilation on the top and a beautifully bright white colour-scheme. Time and effort has been spent on routing the watercooling system for the best aesthetics while maintaining top-tier cooling performance, which is provided without ever becoming noisy.
Now, the review is going to appear a bit too one-sided if we keep up with the praise, so here’s the couple of negatives that we found. The first of which being the lack of storage capacity; 2GB isn’t really enough for a machine of this cost, a decent size HDD could’ve been included for large-scale game backups or for video and photo storage, or even a SATA-based SSD.
The other downside, and this one really was a bit of a let-down, is the lack of watercooling on the GPU. Cyberpower have gone to great lengths to pipe up the CPU to a large radiator and powerful pump/reservoir, watercooling the GPU, particularly something like a 3090Ti, seems like the logical next step that would really have finished the build off nicely.
Cyberpower PC offer a lengthy warranty, with 5 years on the labour, 2 years on all components, and a 2 years collect and return policy on all defects. You also receive life-time technical support for any issues you might face that can be resolved by contacting Cyberpower PC.
The Infinity X129 Ti D5 is, by all accounts, a beast of a system. If you need a do-it-all computer, to be used for business and/or pleasure, we can’t see any reason not to go for this.
