What custom PC making websites do you know about?

[Sqube]

Pretty much like the thread title says. I'm looking to get a nice collection of these types of websites, and figured you'd be the primo group to ask (the people over at TechIMO answer like sloths on Vicodin sometimes).

The only ones I know of are Alienware and Falcon Northwest. I'm pretty sure there are more though, so feel free to throw in as many as you know!

If you've had exceptionally good/bad experiences with them, I'd appreciate you including that in your post as well.

go to newegg and get super custom. Oh go to arstechnica and use their god or hot rod box as a template. Good stuff.

Alright, besides making it yourself. (Does instantly recognizing 127.0.0.1 as home make me a nerd or a geek? Is there a difference?)

It's not home it's a localhost

Yeah yeah yeah, you know what I mean dammit.

Anyways, the guys over at Ars Technica... maybe it's just me, but they don't seem to be too big on updating regularly.

Any one else have any suggestions for buying a pre-built custom PC?

Again, not including DIY.

LOL, I was just trying to be geekier than you. Hmm maybe I should say loopback instead

ABS also sell pre-built custom PC.

Why NOT build it yourself?

Cheaper, better components, better upgrade capability, etc?

I am planning on building it myself; when the inevitable 'Will you build one for me?' questions start up, I'd like to show them to a website that'll do it for not much more than it would cost to buy the parts.

OR...go ahead and do it for them, and charge them the same fee that webpage would charge.

Instant profit!
