Cyberpower Systems Computers

[Jeremizzle]

I just ordered a custom computer from cyberpower inc., if anyone has heard of it. Unfortaunetely, I have been discovering some unpleasent reviews of their computers, so I was just wondering if anyone has made a purchase from cyberpowersystem.com and has any opinions.

Ive been running one of their PCs since the beginning of January, I love it. No issues whatsoever.

Runs great, everything was put together nice and they did a good job keeping everything neat inside. I doubt I could have built it any better myself.

I would reccomend them based on my experiences.

I know one guy on AO had some trouble, but it seemed like a bad OS install, which he did himself, not something that was CP's problem.

Yeah, Jeremy, My bro has one. Runs great, no problems what so ever. They are great systems, and look nat (depending on which you buy)

[Jeremizzle]

yeah good that makes me feel a whole lot better. thanks

i own one, my sister owns one, my girlfriend owns one, and my best friend owns one. cp owns all. can't go wrong with them!

I ordered one from them about 3 years ago. Came complete with bad mobo, bad video card, questionable ram, and a pos cd burner. The system locked up just about every 30 minutes. When video card was put in other computers it had graphical errors all over.

Now my brother ordered one from them about a year ago. Seems to be working fine except they forgot to hook up a fan and his floppy and cdrw drives.

yeah it seems like a couple years ago it would have been a bad idea, but now it looks like they've improved themselves.

its cheaper to buy the parts and build them yourself.

Not by much. I priced out my system in parts, then on Cyber Power. The difference was under $100.

And if you order it all yourself, you have to deal with shipping charges from 10 different places, getting all your packages in line, and then spending your time putting the computer together. To me it was worth getting them to do it and QC it first.

For $100 difference you get a computer that is guaranteed to work, something you definitely don't get if you do it yourself, and even the most experienced computer tech can make a mistake and blow a MB with some static, so don't babble about how you'd never break any of the parts.

hmmm, well, I started building my own about 4 years ago.....
Killed a radeon 8500 back when they weren't cheap from increasing the voltage too mcuh, and a 9500np modded to a 9700 by doing the same. Never killed anything by accident:P
and it is alot cheaper to build then buy.
but unless ur a geek, its best to by something like a cp instead of a dell.
Dells, stink soooo bad....

[Miscue]

Urm, I just go to local shop... get parts, put together. Works for me! That's pretty much all these companies do, they don't have anything special that makes their computers better than someone else's.

[Jeremizzle]

Yeah, I considered building one myself from hlcomputer.com, they have a store like a mile away, but when i built the same thing, the total came to a higher cost believe it or not.
