The Cyberpower Infinity Fusion Titan SE is a high performance system, offering reasonable bang for buck. The choice of components is generally very good … such as the GTX Titan and the Corsair Obsidian 650D.As our testing has highlighted today, the CyberPower system is capable of powering through a variety of the most demanding Direct X 11 titles at 2560×1600 resolution, with the image quality maximized.There are a few things we do feel we need to point out.While Intel's Core i5 3570k processor is an excellent chip for the price, we can't help but feel the system is a little unbalanced. Even with the overclock to 4.6ghz, the GTX Titan really needs a high end Core i7 processor to perform at its best.

We also were surprised to see the entry level Corsair CX600M power supply in this system. Regulars will remember we reviewed it a short while ago over here and while it claimed our top award, it does seem a little out of place in such a high end gaming system.

We recorded a maximum draw around 330 watts from the system so the 600W power supply is going to be operating at peak efficiency under load. That said if I was working to a strict budget, I would rather remove the mechanical hard drive and put the money towards a more expensive Corsair unit, such as the HX750W Professional Gold. It is a more capable design and offers better headroom for futureproofing.

The XSPC Advanced Watercooling MKII is quite good, but we can't see any real benefits when compared side by the side with the Corsair H100 all in one liquid cooler. Performance is in a similar zone and the H100 seems a little quieter, going on testing.

On a more positive note, the Cyberpower Infinity Fusion Titan SE has been built to a very high standard and the cables are well routed and the internal build is very neat and tidy, ideal to showcase with the side panel modification.

Outside of the gaming, the Cyberpower Infinity Fusion Titan SE scores highly, although in more serious duties such as 3D rendering or video editing it does have limitations. As CyberPower have opted for the Core i5 chip, there is no hyperthreading and this does negatively impact the overall performance. The Core i7 3770k would be a worthwhile upgrade if you have other, more serious interests, outside gaming.

All in all, we feel this is a solid system. There are a few components we would change ourselves, but they would most assuredly add a little extra to the overall price.

Pros:

• fantastic build.
• GTX Titan.
• watercooling.
• Corsair case is great to work with and look at.

Cons:

• Not the quietest system.
• Core i5 not i7.
• budget power supply.
• a lot of competition at this price.

Kitguru says: Not a ‘must have' but a good buy nonetheless, but we would configure the system a little differently ourselves. Perhaps removing the mechanical hard drive and and enhancing other areas of the build.
