So i'm looking for a good system and while pricing on ibuypower's site, I noticed that their pro series, configured with the same hardware is significantly cheaper than their gaming, i.e. designer 1 series compared to esports series. Am I missing something here? I went through each hardware spec for each part and they are equal. Of course I am not going to ask them directly as I will get a canned corporate answer rather than a real answer.

It would be helpful if you'd provide screenshots of specifically what you're looking at or some kind of parts list. Otherwise, you're asking for a lot of legwork and research for an idle observation.

Many are the complaints we've seen here.
Poor construction
Poor parts
Poor warranty service
Yes, it 'works' with the config you get from them. Usually.
But woe to him who wishes to change something next year. That PSU? Piece of junk.

I'm actually curious USAFRet, which boutique companies are recommended? I know years ago when I was looking at a laptop, I had considered iBuyPower as well as a few others. Eventually, I ended up with a Toshiba. With the desktops, I know building your own is always the best route. With friends of mine though that are now hours away, I can no longer maintain them for them so the boutique option would be a good choice.
