To build or not.....

[dennisthe12c]

Hi, Haven't built anything for several years so am many sockets and light years behind in my system knowledge. Was looking through E-Bay at parts and systems when I came across the site listed below and while pricey they look and sound like a quality group. Anyone heard or dealt with them? What do you think??

thanks

They look legitimate at least. But as nearly everyone will tell you on this thread, its better to build your own. Just make a new thread with this form filled out, and the resident forum-junkies (like myself) will probably have a rig for you quite quickly.

thats insanely expensive, minus the case those parts are 1100 dollars from newegg. so youre paying 900 dollars for a case, installation, and overclocking. you could do those last two on your own with a little time and reading

used google could not find out what state there registered as a biz. with the dba info you can run a bbb report and see if there any issue with them. look like there an ebay store only. if your going with semi custom pre built then buy one from a company that been in biz for a while.
