Whats wrong with Azza? I recently ordered my PC from CyberPower and it came with both the Azza keyboard and the Azza mouse. They are actually really nice and my friends have actually been quite jealous of them. The mouse has an adjustable DPI and has a very nice feel to it. And all keyboards are basically the same. If you don't have anything to contribute to the post, why even post it? Anyways, to answer your question, the CPU is good, I honestly wouldn't get the engraving unless its something special to you, for example I wouldn't get "Xidol's Desktop" because I don't know how long I will like the name Xidol. Anyways, that's irrelevant. A lot of people have told me that the Asetek water cooling is terrible, but I love mine. No complaints there. The hard drive is meh, I would go 1 TB if you plan on gaming because that will eventually fill up. The memory is good, corsair is always pretty reliable. The motherboard isn't all that good, I would recommend upgrading that. The power supply is a little low but will work fine. The graphics card will work well for pretty much every game you can throw at it. You might not be able to turn up Anti-Aliasing all the way but you should be fine.

TL;DR I would invest a little bit more money into your Motherboard. Maybe up the power on your PSU (power supply). And depending on which games you play, you might want to go with the 650 TI 2gb EVGA super clocked for $38 more. Overall 7/10. And the dude hating on azza is a dick.

No. You couldn't be more wrong by saying that. And the Azza peripherals are super cheap rebrands, about as mediocre as it gets.

Most (if not all?) ALCs are Asetek rebrands and that one is the Corsair H50. It performs way, way worse than similarly-priced air coolers. This is true for all ALCs as air coolers perform much better for the price. That's why I bag on them so much and yes, I'm fully aware of what people think they offer over air coolers.


-Unlocked CPU and aftermarket cooler with a board that doesn't support overclocking, making for a huge waste of money.
-Mediocre case.
-Junk peripherals.
-Mediocre CX series PSU instead of a superior unit for the same price.
-GTX 650 in an $800+ build. That's terrible.

You have to build your own if you want to make a sound financial decision and get quality hardware.
