I'm not sure what you mean by if you are talking about the power supply its a 1,000 Watts - Standard 80 Plus Gold. I wasn't told the exact brand that went into the computer

That's the rating, but we wanna know what brand it is, so we can make sure it's a good quality one. Can you open it up and snap a picture of the power supply?

The wattage is more than enough though.

Yeah, but that doesnt say anything about what unit it specifically is

80+ is an efficiency rating

Standard 80 Plus Gold Power Supply

"standard"

as if 1000 watts are run of the mill. If someone told you these are common they either saved with a cheapo model or was just lying.

I bought it from cyberpowerpc but Im not sure how to get to the Power Supply. I'll just call them tomorrow and see if they know if not ill take it to a local place that can check what power supply it is

You really don't need to go to a store for that. Pop the front panel and take a picture for us.

Why are you asking, anyhow? You've had that PC for a while now

Just pop open the side and take a picture. It's a metal box with a million wires coming out.

Hopefully this picture is good enough. 

I told a friend about my specs and he said I need a 1800W power supply. I think he is crazy but i figured I might as well make sure

Looks like you have a PSU shroud. Pop open the other side.

 

1800W would trip some north American breakers.

1.8kw PSU would trip anything but a 20amp circuit if max loaded in North america / any place with 120v output.  Also a 20amp power cable would not fit in most home american outlets

a 1000w standard 80 + gold without a name brand raises all sorts of red flags

 

A good 1kW PSU would be fine for that system

I know its not for the Topic but did you buy this PC only for Gaming?
