gaming pc shop?

[bumbeen]

Have a friend that I don't like well enough to build a PC for him but he is too lazy to build it himself, do you know of any reputable web shops that can build gaming PCs cheaper than Dell and the like?

Thanks!

cyberpower? lol

Cheaper than Dell? I don't think so. There's some boutique builders that build good PCs, but you'll pay dearly for them. Since you don't like the guy much, why don't you build it and charge him? You'll make some beer money, and keep you building chops honed.

...why don't you build it and charge him?

We say this to everybody with only one post to their alias.

cyberpower alright woohoo thanks lol.

Well I referred him to a friend or two of mine that can do it but he wants a shop for some reason. I've no time to do all the reading necessary to catch up and build it myself. My current rig I built in mid-07, I need a new machine for FF14 though so I'm going to have to make time soon.

Gateway: $950 for an HD5750, i5 750, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD.
Cyberpower: $920 for an i5 650, HD5750, 1TB, 4GB RAM.
Dell: $930 for i5 750, 500GB, 4GB RAM, HD5770.

With those options, I would be sticking with Dell or going with Gateway, not Cyberpower.

Have him buy a standard Dell and then just install a different graphics card.

but he is too lazy to build it himself,

Tell him to go to Dell.
Tell him to find his own vendor if he doesn't like your suggestion
