Cyberpower Fang III Black Mamba Review -the £4,000 system

CyberPower supply the system without loads of bloatware so you wont need to worry about reformatting the system as soon as you get it.  There are a few useful things included like a remote desktop connection to the media server in case you don't want to use the KVM switch.

As we mentioned earlier in the review, CyberPower factory overclock the processor to 4.7 GHz which is reasonably impressive for a prebuilt water cooled system.

They don't overclock the memory or the graphics cards, though, which is a little disappointing considering the graphics cards are water cooled and the memory has extra cooling.
