I buy power, real or fake?

[Rathoom]

Hey guys, I was wondering if Ibuypower was a good website to buy a gaming PC from, if anyone bought a PC from them or had a friend who did please leave a comment about your experience.

Also I was reading some online reviews and most negative comments suggested a differant site, then the suggested sites had bad reviews that suggested Ibuypower, it's like the people who commented or reviews are working for the company or something and trying to bash the competition.

I owne(d) a Ibuypower PC before. Though this was back in 2011. I am unsure of any major changes to them in recent times. But the PC was flawless/still is. I no longer use it as for it is an older PC. Gave it to my mother and build myself a new one.

But honestly when it comes down to Pre-Built PC's. Its a hit or miss. There are a ton of different components in a PC. And during shipping there is a good chance it can get damaged. Which most people will blame the company on even tho they have no control over that. Just gotta hope your PC arrives in one working piece.

In all, Ibuypower is a good site for a Prebuilt PC. Though pending where you live there may be better options. I know these dyas there are quite a lot of different companies that make pre-built computers now. CyberpowerPC, Origin, Digital Storm.. to name a few.

But if you want the best bang for the buck. You should watch guides on Youtube on how to build a PC. You will save money, get better parts, and know exactly how to fix an issue with your PC if you build it yourself.

Anyways just coming here to give my experience with Ibuypower. Again this was back in 2011. So I am unsure how much they changed, but back then it was great.

I think most people that are happy with their purchase don't really review.
But my cousin bought from ibuypower once, when it came in it didn't work, had to get a friend to fix it.
The youtuber, nerdcubed, I don't know if it was his fault or ibuypower's the liquidcooling spilled all over his computer.

Very likely it was a shipping issue. As I mentioned in my post ordering a pre built PC and having it shipped has a high risk of being damaged in shipping. ESPECIALLY if its liquid cooled. The company sending it out does/should package it nicely. But once its out of their hands it is all up to the workers who handles the package to care for it, and most don't. Another reason why I highly suggest people looking for a new PC to either build it themselves. Or order the parts and go to a Local PC shop/friend and pay a fee to have them build it. Less travel for the computer which will cause no damage.. Unless you yourself drop it.

Bought my first dedicated gaming computer from them in 2011. Everything worked great, and im still using the cpu, mobo, and hdd. When I bought it the price difference between it and self build was only like 100$, though i think that has gone up since then.

I wasn't confident enough to build my own back then, so that is why I chose ibuypower.

Aren't you supposed to ask BEFORE you purchase? LOL...you should be fine though. A PC building company does not stay in business 10+ years on fake reviews only.

I have not but I have iPower has been recommended to me by more than one co-worker as one of the best options for a pre-built
