Gatorade Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) Edit: Changed the topic rather then make a new thread. You guys are always so helpful. Anyways, I was trying to find reviews on Cyberpower PC's warrenty to see how it is but I couldn't find much. There website states the following: " Warranty Coverage - Company warrants to the original purchaser that the Product(s) shall be free of any defect in material or workmanship for a period of three years for labor and one year for parts from the date of the original invoice from Company. Company shall have the sole discretion in determining whether Product is covered under the warranty for labor and/or warranty for parts. Should the Product(s) supplied by Company prove defective by reason of improper workmanship or material as reasonably determined by Company, Company agrees, at its option, to either repair or replace the Product free of charge, excluding any shipping or handling charges. " - Which basically says if they deem it okay theyll replace it otherwise good luck. (Unless im stupid). + TLDR: Anyone know firsthand or have experience with their warrenty's?

TheCrestedPenguin Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 My first PC was an alienware fuck prebuild PC's thats all i have to say. Gatorade likes this Link to comment
ChicoXL Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Currently using a pre built PC no problems with it no complaints. Gatorade and Space like this Link to comment
Frizzy Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) My first real PC was an alienate Aurora r4 I still have it after many many years literally have some zero maintenance to it besides cleaning dust and putting in a new graphics card. Honestly if you are buying a computer now I hear it is the way to go to do a prebuilt. The only thing I didnt like was the wait to get here. The one bad thing I heard about certain companies is they will use not the most known/best brands on things like your psu, ram etc. That's where they save money.......

Buck Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Yea been using one for 4 years no issues Gatorade likes this Link to comment
Thomas Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I got mine from https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/. Reasonably priced compared to building it yourself given the warranty. Cost £2.2k total, parts alone worked out around 2K if I was to build it but got 2 years warranty for everything including parts. Only issue I had was a harddrive fail within a few weeks of getting it but they sent out a replacement without much hassle. Gatorade likes this Link to comment
Clint Beastwood Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Really is the best way to go at the moment with GPU's being severely overpriced. Gatorade and Smarty like this Link to comment

Ive built three my self over the years and it has always done me good but nowadays it would cost me more to take time to build it then it would to just show up to work and have someone else build it. 33 minutes ago, Frizzy said: My first real PC was an alienate Aurora r4 I still have it after many many years literally have some zero maintenance to it besides cleaning dust and putting in a new graphics card.

I would probably wait until they released the 1170 anyways but I just like to get a game plan before this kinda thing rolls out. If the prices are jacked up on rebuilds at the time of the 1170 release I may just build it my self otherwise prebuilt if theres reputable vendors Link to comment
Cliff. Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) I got my current PC from Bestbuy for about $100 cheaper than building it myself. Saved myself the hassle of actually building it and saved myself money. Good deal. Haven't had a single issue with it so far either, though I've only had it for a year. Edited May 31, 2018 by Cliff.

Thank you The good thing is with company's that pre-built computers are that the company deals with the broken parts and setup of your PC not only that is maybe 10% more expensive but at least you know that every component will be in full working order before it is sent to you.

Yeah, thats a big thing for me nowadays. I just can't spend all that time gathering individual parts online or driving to microcenter to find out one is acting fucky either right away or down the road. I like the idea that you can just contact one source for it all Link to comment

True, But still way overpriced considering the fact we are about 1 month separated from the release of the 11xx series. If you looked at prices of the 9xx series before the 10xx series dropped they were sub 500 for 980GTX and low 600's for 980Ti's Azeh likes this Link to comment
Penguin_ Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) I thought I showed you the one I bought no complaints and it’s cheap for what it comes with They no longer sell it but I found it on Newegg but it was cheaper on amazon https://m.newegg.com/products/1VK-005B-00017 @Sugarfoot Edited May 31, 2018 by Penguin_ Link to comment
Shane McCoy Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Learning specs, watching youtube tutorials, having parts come in individually, then finally building your PC is a pretty fun experience. It's cheaper as well. BUT, there can be a lot of headache is one thing goes wrong. If a part comes in faulty, or you place something wrong, it can be really irritating trying to figure out what is wrong. Safest option is buying Link to comment

The problem lie's with the fact that I just got promoted at work and in two weeks I a bat shit schedule and I was thinking to my self either I need to build a pc now or look into buying one prebuilt because I won't have the time after that.

Feenix Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Bought a prebuilt computer for $1100 with warranty lasted me 5 years and still going strong. Bought it at Fry’s Electronics just need to look at the specs and see if its worth it!. If you treat your computer right it will last imo Link to comment
Heidelberg Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Have had my prebuilt for 5 years now, still runs alright. Had to use my warranty a couple years back for my gpu that got fried. All in all pretty alright. Gatorade likes this Link to comment

Thank you The PC i have was a pre-built I was knew to computers when I got it, way back in 2014. In came with a HUGE dent in the side, we were told we couldn't get a new one because we opened it (no way of knowing it had a dent without opening it?) I have had to get parts fixed/upgraded quite a few times. Overall, if you CAN make a PC, I would. It's a lot better because you know whats actually in there and if its produced to a good standard.

God that sound like a nightmare. - I can build a PC with my eye's closed but its just the area I have to work with it would take me 3 or 4 hours to get it built and installed properly so I was thinking in terms of 4 hours working vs 4 hours building. 16 minutes ago, Tony. said: usually I would agree but with the price of memory right now some prebuild are worth it imo.

Ill post the number of a comparable build in a second here - you kinda get forced into buying a GPU though which would be kind of stupid to buy a prebuilt right now with the 11 series coming out.
