YOYOTech Warbird SB2500-460 System Review

We believe the YOYOTech Warbird SB2500-460 system is perfect for gamers who want to play all the latest games at reasonable settings but are a little budget-limited.

The Intel Core-i5 2500K CPU provides a decent amount of processing grunt thanks to the hefty overclock and is supported well by the Asus GeForce GTX 460 GPU which lets you crank up those graphics settings in the latest games. Sure, it doesn't have the power of the recently released GTX 560 but this would increase the price of the system considerably. We would however recommend that YOYOTech use a higher grade CPU cooler, as the 2500K load temperatures were a little high. Either that or lower the overclock and voltage.

YOYOTech pack all the components into the compact Silverstone PS03 which remains light, despite being constructed almost entirely of steel.  This makes it perfect for lugging to LAN events across the country.

Perhaps the most important aspect of the system is the price; after all it is the limiting factor for most consumers.  The Warbird SB2500-460 is available at the very reasonable price of £769 inc. VAT from YOYOTech.  This makes it very good value for money, especially compared the rivals like OCUK who are currently offering a similarly specified system with a lesser overclock for £30 more.

KitGuru says: A good all-round system that provides great bang-for-buck. If you're interested, then we'd definitely suggest you upgrade to a different cooler like the Frio. Also, check on the warranties given in respect of the mainboard – nice to know you're covered.
