Stretch32 Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 After 7 years I've decided it's time to finally replace my old Compaq and buy a new computer. My current rig is beyond economical upgrade anymore due to it's AGP and Pentium 4 design so I've decided to order a new custom computer that will actually run my flight sims. I've done alot of research and picked out the components I want and shopped between several companies both in store and online. I've decided I can get the best deal for what I'm looking for online at Cyberpower. I wanted to know if anybody here has had any dealings with this company or have computers bought from them. I've read reviews and they appear overall to be a fairly good company (like any retail business there are some negative reviews as well). I've never purchased a computer online but after looking in stores at Alienware, Dell, HP and Gateway I really feel I can get a much more capable computer for alot less by ordering online. Any thoughts or comments on the topic would appreciated. Thanks in advance. Stretch Quote

I'm not sure about a gaming rig, but if their regular desktops are any indication, it may be worth the money. Quote

Stretch32 Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 Thanks for the input. I ordered a computer from them last night and it should be here next week. I can finally play my flight sims again on maxxed settings. Stretch Quote
