Good computer customization sites
What are some good computer customization sites, I found one (cyberpowerpc.com) but I want to check others before buying my computer.

Re: Good computer customization sites
I am not 100% sure what you mean, but i believe you mean sites where you can order a pc customized to your likings. If so, then check out alienware.com, dell.com, gateway.com, and hp.com. I know the first two still offer pc customization, not sure about the last two. You could also buy the parts and make your own pc, like i do. I consider it the best way to know what you have and what you do not have. However, there are faults in building it yourself, which are mostly destorying your parts with static or you just run into hardware or software problems. Anyways, feel free to hit me up, if you still need help by either posting here or messaging me.

Re: Good computer customization sites
Yeah, i do not like dell anyways, but he did ask for a few sites. Dell has too many pc problems, mainly hardware. For example, i had to repiar a few pc's that were dell and yet, after all the work on a few of them, they still came back with the same problem....
I am not sure about dell owning alienware, but yeah alienware is overpriced, but they do offer better computers. However, i can build about the same pc for what they have, for just the same price, but without shipping and handeling. |

Alienware: Overpriced, still low-quality "products" (motherboard/RAM - by low quality, not name-brand, trustworthy). Dell: Cheap, Very low-quality/workmanship - comes with Junk and performs like junk! Technical Support is a joke - might as well talk to a wall! Gateway: Terrible from the start - they come with basic components even Wal-mart sells :-) (never buy anything at all from Wal-mart). HP: Hardware Failure followed by more hardware failure finished off by technical support which likes the hang-up button :-). Best option: Build it yourself or get someone else to do it for you. Or, have them install the mobo/case/power supply/HDD and install the rest of the "Easy" stuff yourself. Just watch out for faulty hardware! :grrr: Slmclarengt |
Re: Good computer customization sites
Yes, I meant to cross out Alienware too. :mrgreen:
Though I would never buy a pre-made computer myself (unless it's a laptop...), the only company from that list I would slightly consider is HP (oddly enough, never had any problems with them). However, as slmclarengt said, I'd get someone who's good with hardware to do it for you. It'll come out a few hundred dollars cheaper most of the time, too. |
Re: Good computer customization sites
Yeah, cheaper is right. I don't see a lot of people i know buying from companies, but hey they buy from frys which is the same thing. Its easy to learn to build your self all it is is just putting the parts together. Only thing that may be hard, is the compatibitlity. It is for most beginners, but hey you can always ask the tech people at your local pc stores. I am sure they will be willing to help. Wow, no idea dell owned alienware, thanks for info.

Re: Good computer customization sites
And HP owns voodoopc, but that's for the richies. Besides, building your own is fun :D

Re: Good computer customization sites
I don't know any computer technician which is why I was hoping for someone to tell me if there are any good, cheap, reliable sites for buying computers.

Re: Good computer customization sites
if you build your own computer, stay away from EMachine's mother boards!! They fry WAY to easily. Most PSU's on those Mobo's burn out and take the mobo with it!
