Cyberpower Gaming Battalion 502 Windows 8 PC Review (FX 4170 / Radeon 7770)

Cyberpower uses the windowed version of Cooler Master's Elite 310 chassis to house the Gaming Battalion 502 PC's components. The Elite 310's mid-tower form factor allows it to house large hardware without major problems, meaning that this system has future upgrade potential.

Some readers will love the Elite 310's side panel window while others will abhor it. The system builders at Cyberpower have done well to maintain a good view of the internal hardware through the window without the ugly power and data cables being shown.

A pair of USB 2.0 ports and 3.5mm jacks forms the Cyberpower Gaming Battalion 502's front panel connections. Located towards the bottom-edge of the chassis, the front IO panel is best suited for desk-users. Those of us that place the system on the floor will have to stretch to connect USB devices.

Recessed motherboard and PCI panels allow users to easily connect cables without worrying about them protruding and interfering with a wall or nearby obstacle. Cyberpower covers the PSU power input with a warning sticker that reminds the customer to remove any internal packaging before starting the system.

Motherboard rear IO:

  • 1x PS/2 keyboard/mouse combo port
  • 1x D-Sub port
  • 1x DVI-D port
  • 1 x HDMI port
  • 4 x USB 2.0 ports
  • 2 x USB 3.0 ports
  • 1 x RJ-45 port
  • 3 x audio jacks (Line In/Line Out/Microphone)

Graphics card outputs:

  • 1x DisplayPort
  • 1x HDMI
  • 1x Dual Link DVI-I

  1. I really dont like AMD systems, their CPUS are always very unpowered even for the price.

  2. its becouse you have too alot money , if you have less you will chose amd and you will be happy , in game fps diference is low. and about multytasking you not using all programs in same time to feel diference.

  3. Honestly, i used Ebuyer, found a rig more or less the same for £250, granted it has a smaller HDD, less RAM and only a built in AMD GPU, for an extra £50-£100 you can sort out the GPU and the RAM, which still leaves it £150 to £200 less than this rig, bargain in my eyes :3
