Hey guys, My Lenovo workstation is finally dying and so I have decided to get my first real gaming rig. I was planning on building my own but I have very limited time due to school so I have designed a CyberPowerPC. I know they have some negative stigma around them for some of the parts they use so I went through and specifically chose every single part, making sure they all have decent reputations on Newegg/Amazon. I am just about ready to pull the trigger since their daily sale today has the M.2 SSD I want free with purchase of a Mech Drive. Tell me if you have any critiques of the setup, or any stories (Good or Bad) of CyberPowerPC.

Also forgot to mention,

 

Primary uses of this setup will be Gaming, School Work and Light CAD Work. 

 

Already have full gaming peripherals from my current setup. Logitech G710+ keyboard, G700 Mouse, G930 Headset.

 

I have a 4 monitor setup, A 40" TV, 27" 1080P Monitor, and 2 19" Older Square Monitors for sides to the main monitor. 

 

I know the gtx1080 is overkill for this but I am planning on upgrading to 1440p relatively soon. 

 

Thanks.
