be careful if you are planning on buying from them.. I'm reading horror stories about iBuyPower, Cyberpower and XtremeGear (all the same company)..

They are making a little profit, because that more than what you can build it for online.

I don't know why people buy computers anymore like that from companies, putting one together is like making a bowl of cereal, the parts just fit correctly for a sweet time.

Read this:

Sounds like you want to stay FAR away from BuyXG

My last two have been from CyberPower also. Have not had major problems with either computer.

The first computer came with a standard keyboard that one of the keys did not work. I did not pursue anything there, was a $20 dollar item.

My second one I am still using, I has been great so far. I have replaced the power supply, the original one the fan quit spinning and would heat up and shut down. Things like that I expect to happen

It has been a couple of years since my last order, so obviously things can and will change though.

I hear both those websites use RMA'd equipment without telling the customer they are getting used gear. I wonder..?
