Hello everyone,
I once tried to build a pc on my own and one of the components ended up being defective out of the box, but I had no way to find out which one was bad since I was replacing a dead computer, so my build turned into a nightmare. It was really time consuming and discouraging.
I would like to build a new gaming machine for around $1000, but I'm scared to try it again, so I'm considering some kind of premade option. Now I priced Dell and the other big companies (HP, Gateway) and they are all way over priced and their customization sucks. I considered Cyberpowerpc.com but have seen some bad things said about them on these forums, and even their own.
So where does that leave me? Do you guys know a small internet shop that does quality work when building their machines, or is that something that is not possible to find?
Can you give me any advice on building a new machine? Have things changed a bit? Not sure how they could, but I'm hoping for some encouragement I guess.
Yours truly,
Noob
