CyberPower FANGBOOK X7-200 Pro Reviews

The CyberPower FangBook X7-200 gaming laptop delivers strong performance and a healthy feature set for less than two grand.

The Fangbook is just an all-around great system. Of course, you could configure it with better specs, but the Intel Core i7-3630QM processor, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX GPU, 16GB of RAM, and speedy SSD do pretty well together. (It’s worth noting that this is merely the base configuration for the X7-200 model.) Sometimes, a PC maker will load a system with one or possibly two extremely high end components and skimp on the rest, but CyberPowerPC built this Fangbook with a well balanced mix of components, which frankly makes more sense. Cold hard benchmark scores aside, the Fangbook also delivered remarkably quiet performance considering its pedigree. Even after long gaming sessions, the fan noise stayed pleasantly low. We were also impressed with the speakers’ overall clarity and clean sound even at high volumes (even though lower frequency performance was predicably weak). CyberPowerPC made an effort to produce a gaming notebook that had some flair to it, and the Fangbook definitely delivers on that front. Further (and more importantly), the build quality is as solid as the cool lights and funky exterior shell are attractive, and ports are placed in areas where you’re most likely to actually use them.

The CyberPower FangBook X7-200 is an excellent choice for gamers who can't live with slow frame rates and don't have the money to invest in a high-end laptop. Granted, at $1,549 this system isn't exactly cheap, but it's certainly more affordable than the likes of the Origin EON17-SLX and Alienware M17x R4. It doesn't offer the same blazing frame rates as the big boys, but it'll get you to the 30fps threshold for smooth gameplay, with enough graphics power to allow for high-detail gaming on a spacious 17.3 inch screen.

The Cyberpower Fangbook X7-200 gaming notebook is a beast of a system and was able to put up some great performance numbers. If you're in the market for a gaming notebook, the Fangbook X7-200 is a great choice! Everything is upgradable from the factory which gives you endless choices to make your Cyberpower Fangbook X7-200 'you'!
