Best online gaming PC builder sites

Featured Replies

Hello...can anyone recommend a reputable online gaming PC builder?  I had a build all planned out on NewEgg but unfortunately didn't click buy fast enough.  The 1080Ti cards went out of stock so I've missed my chance at the moment.  This has me looking at gaming pc's that are built for me as it seems I can get the 1080Ti that way.  I have no problem building my own PC but I don't want to wait forever for the 1080.  So can I get a totally customize-able experience online and one that is going to be a solid build made up of the components I would normally have put together in my own build?  Or am I better to just wait it out?

Regards,

Just don't go to Dell. Horrible service!

 

Whatever you do make sure they have them in stock as well.
If you don't mind overpaying I like alienware even though it is dell.

Personally I would wait. You can get a lot more for the $

I got my current rig from Overclockers.co.uk. I'm happy with it and I found their service to be good, especially when my monitor went astray.

I wouldn't get a simming rig from Dell. I can't speak for the service but I  always found their options to be too restrictive. Their Alienware systems don't seem to be worth their cost when you look at what's actually in them. There's more to performance than a badass-looking box...:smile:

Bought two rigs from CyberPowerPC. No problems. Systems delivered as ordered. 1 is 5 years old. 1 is two years old. Good response to questions/issues. I'd avoid Dell.

I've had 2 desktop and three laptop builds by Digitalstorm over the last 12 years... fully customizable, they are great to deal with.

Puget Systems in Auburn, WA seem to be a highly skilled and professional mob. Not sure if they've delved (or are willing to) into the complex world of flight simming. If you are in the US a quick call could probably get you all the information you require.

You could check out Jerry's (Barnacules Nerdgasm) videos on YouTube and his experiences with the Pugetsystems guys.

Most of what is said on the Internet may be the same thing they shovel on the regular basis at the local barn.

I had been building mine myself until my current 2 1/2 year old system..  I have a couple of MicroCenter retail stores near me and was shopping them for components when I learned they custom build for $120.00 and provide a guarantee. Had to purchase the components from them but they are very competitive on prices.
