I checked out some cyberpowerpc computers, i thought they had some good deals. I also looked on craigslist, no one ever sells good computers on there. Which place has the best prices?
build it yourself
newegg
If you live in the states [url]www.newegg.com[/url] but if you live in canada either [url]www.ncix.com[/url] or [url]www.tigerdirect.ca[/url] or [url]www.newegg.ca[/url]

What is it with you guys always saying "build it yourself"? What if some people aren't comfortable faffing about with $600-$700 worth of parts.

[QUOTE=slinkman;25238087]What is it with you guys always saying "build it yourself"? What if some people aren't comfortable faffing about with $600-$700 worth of parts.[/QUOTE] Ok then, have someone else build it for you. Surely he knows someone who's comfortable with putting a PC together.

What if some people aren't comfortable faffing about with $600-$700 worth of parts.[/QUOTE] if you can't plug in cables and use a screwdriver, you probably can't operate the computer anyway I come to this section to help people get the most out of their budget, prebuilts don't do this and usually cut corners on important parts like the MoBo and PSU as well it's not like it's difficult to surpass the cable management and overall build quality of the average prebuilt anyway

Hell, just pick up a copy of PC Gamer's Build your own PC guide for this year. It has step-by-step pictures. The only place I'd honestly recommend is [URL="http://www.digitalstormonline.com"]http://www.digitalstormonline.com[/URL] Very good customer feedback, very friendly customer service, and they hand-build it. It's gonna be expensive, but you won't get a POS PC.

Building yourself isn't necessarily any cheaper.
[QUOTE=Dylan_94;25254117]Building yourself isn't necessarily any cheaper.[/QUOTE] Better value, as you know the parts are quality, not some shit mobo and PSU the OEM has shoved in to save costs.
Well if it ever breaks it is generally covered by warranty.
so is all PC hardware
