I am looking for a new computer and have seen this site around. Anyone know anything about them? The prices are cheaper than Dell when going through building a system so you are getting way more for your money. |

Good company, also known as cyberpower pc I believe - their ads in gaming magazines look identical and they have the same address out of California IIRC. They build great gaming machines for very little money and you can have them customize. Some machines are stock, some allow you to really customine by offering several choices for each option like hard drive, processor, memory, power supply, cooling, etc.
I've owned two cyberpower machines, I prefer them they cost a little more, but come with a 3 year warranty. I think Ibuypower might be their Volkswagen to Cyberpower's Audi. Here is cyberpower's website |
| Hmmm. Not really wanting to work on it but the reviews I have seen have been pretty good with a few bad ones. You really get a great machine for the price. I don't game but need some of the analytic and video capabilities. I would go apple if they compatible with work units. Anyone else? |

If you're looking for the best bang for the buck, I would look at Dell refurbished units from www.dell.com/outlet.
They carry a one year warranty and have been looked over in person by a tech. I've had my XPS laptop at a great price from there for over a year now and have no complaints. I've been doing IT for 5 years and understand some people aren't interested in rolling their own. Personally, I don't see myself owning another desktop computer, but I don't game heavily either. I just want shit that works. |

Quoted:
from a 20 year pc tech ... they are garbage .. sub par parts and lots of issues . build your own or go ASUS for a little more $. do your research and check scamalert and read more reviews. check newegg.com. Since you can specify exactly the parts you want this is simply not true. |
