Has anybody here purchased a PC from either Cyberpower or Ibuypower. These are the on-line guys that always have the big two page adverts in PCGamer every month.
I'm about to take the plunge and buy my first real custom gaming rig---having alway previously owned brands like HP or Dell in the past. I've managed to add new graphics and sound card to these, but due to all the proprietary software and OEM hardware they come with, that is about all the upgrades one can do.
I thought about trying to build my own rig, but at my stage in life I am no longer a "do it yourselfer" type. I would rather pay someone else to do it, and have a nice warranty on the whole rig to boot,
so don't waste a post telling me I should build it myself.
With a $2,200 budget for just the CPU, obviously I wouldn't get much from the high priced boys like Alienware or Falcon Northwest, but one can put a pretty decent rig together with either of the two bargain priced guys mentioned. Actually the cost of the rig I configured is not too much more than if I bought all the components separately myself.
I just wondered if anybody here has tried them and has an opinion. I have heard a few horror stories, but a lot less that I have heard about the big boys like Dell and HP.
Cheers
