Affordable and competent gaming PC encased in white, as evaluated in the CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme review

The CyberpowerPC Gamer Supreme SLC11260CPG is a white-themed gaming tower that offers a balance of performance and affordability. This system, available at popular retailers such as Walmart, Adorama, and Best Buy, comes with a 360mm AIO liquid cooler, matching peripherals, and runs on Windows 11 Home.

The system's dimensions are 19.5 x 9.3 x 18.1 inches, making it a mid-tower design suitable for most spaces. The case isn't as premium as some competitors like the Corsair Vengeance a7500, but it still presents a sleek and modern look.

The Gamer Supreme's gaming performance is not top-of-the-line but is capable for 1440p and 1080p performance. In games like Far Cry 6, it approached 60 FPS at 4K, while easily maintaining triple digits at 1080p. In Borderlands 3, the system easily achieves triple-digit frame rates at 1080p, and is close enough to 60 FPS at 4K that you could get there by disabling a few settings.

The system's networking includes 1 Gbps Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6 (Realtek RTL8851BE), and Bluetooth 5.3, ensuring smooth and fast connectivity. The front ports include 2x USB 3.0, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, and 3.5 mm headphone and microphone jacks, providing convenient access to essential devices. The rear ports include 4x USB 2.0 Type-A, 4x USB 10 Gbps Type-A, 1x USB 10 Gbps Type-C, 3x audio jacks, 2x antenna ports, HDMI and DisplayPort outputs, and a PS/2 port for legacy devices.

The system's power supply is a High Power 850W non-modular, providing ample power for the system's components. The cooling includes CyberPowerPC Bitspower Infinity 360 mm AIO, ensuring efficient heat dissipation during gaming and other intensive tasks.

Under the hood, the Gamer Supreme pairs AMD's best CPU for gaming, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, with a 16GB RTX 5060 Ti. This combination delivers solid gaming performance, as demonstrated in benchmark tests. In Handbrake test, the Vengeance i7600 finished the transcode in under two minutes, while the Gamer Supreme took roughly a minute longer. In Metro Exodus, the Gamer Supreme averaged 145.88 frames per second (FPS), with effectively no variance, and maintained temperatures within expected range. In Geekbench 6 synthetic CPU benchmark, the Gamer Supreme's score of 3335 on the single-core side put it in the lead.

The system's price as configured is $1,859.99, making it a sub-$2,000 gaming tower. With 94 different models available at Best Buy, prices ranging from $779 to $5,099, there's a Gamer Supreme to fit almost any budget.

In conclusion, the CyberpowerPC Gamer Supreme SLC11260CPG is a mainstream gaming tower that offers a balance of performance, affordability, and convenience. Its gaming performance is not top-of-the-line but is capable for 1440p and 1080p performance, making it a great choice for gamers on a budget.
