CyberPower Zeus Thunder 2500 SE Ivy Bridge Gaming System Review

System Overview and Testing Procedures
Now for the fun part, let’s turn this system on!  Cyberpower has loaded the system with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.  Once I had the system up and running I installed CPU-Z to see what all was running on the system.

Now the Intel Core i7-3770K runs by default at 3.5GHz, but CyberPower has overclocked it to a nice 4.7GHz!  That is a 1.2GHz or 34% overclock, not that bad at all!

We will be running this system through a complete battery of benchmarks.  We have separated them into categories below.
