Ibuypower ? what's wrong with it

[trolling troll]

Hello, I was just asking if ibuypower is reliable and im going to buy a 800 $ system. But people keep saying there trash and ect, and I am wondering why ?

Yes many people do say that they are trash because of cheap parts, and people complain that the computers come in not working and such.
I know that iBuyPower is the same as CyberPower, but people tend to say that CyberPower is more on the safe side. I had many friends buy from CyberPower and they have no complaints. In fact, I will also probably buy from CyberPower this summer. Just make sure you spend an extra $50 or $100 for safe shipping and professional wiring.
Worst part about CyberPower, I would say, is that it takes a while for it to ship depending on where you live.
If you do not know how to build your computer, this would probably be your best choice.

Most say its trash because they overcharge for simple things. I saw a coworker making a computer at ibuypower and silly things like upgrading from 4GB of RAM to 8GB of ram was $137...2x4GB sticks on newegg are around $75 and RAM isn't exactly difficult to put in...They seem to be great for putting together a cheap rig and then upgrading what you need yourself. The company seems to pick on the gulliblility of their consumers in not understanding how much hardware truly costs and difficulty in building.
