Closer Look (Internals)
If we remove the plastic panel we can start to peek around inside the case, and let me just say, Cyberpower have gone to lengths here, keeping things neat and tidy.


If we start at the top and work our way down, you can see that there are 2x 8-pin CPU power connectors in the top-left, offering many watts of power for that Intel 12900KF, ensuring it has overclocking headroom (if you wish) or the ability to keep things nice and quiet while operating inside the usual frequencies. The EK Velocity 2 waterblock looks absolutely fantastic sat on top of the processor, with the hardlined tubing running over to the rest of the system.

Strapped alongside the CPU is 32GB, in 2x 16GB DIMMs, of CORSAIR’s Vengeance DDR5 memory, clocked in at 4800MHz to give you ample speed and plenty of storage for the latest games and whatever task you care to throw at it. Two DIMM slots remain unpopulated if you wish to upgrade this to 64GB for even more demanding tasks, thought 32GB is more than enough for almost anything you can throw at it.

Tucked away behind the built-in NVMe heatsink is a 2TB Kingston Fury Renegade M.2 drive, promising read and write speeds of up to 7,300MB/s and 7,000MB/s; with speeds like that you can guarantee quick loading times, and thanks to 2TB of capacity, you won’t be filling it up in a hurry either.



Obviously, with the GPU mounted in a vertical orientation to show off that beautiful triple-fan cooler, there needs to be a ribbon cable connecting it to the PCI-Express port on the motherboard, usually this is just plugged in and the ugliness is dealt with by the user, but not this time. The chassis comes with a very stylish PCI-E shield to cover up the ribbon cable, it’s also shaped like the case in which it sits, for a bit of design symmetry. It’s little finishing touches like this that really set a machine off.



At the front of the chassis is a beautiful transparent reservoir for the cooling system, with the clear panels of the case this is on full display for all to see.
