Has anyone heard of or had personal experience with "iBuyPower.com". If so is it reliable and worth it? or would it be better for me to construct my own computer?
Did I help you? If so +Rep me for a cookie...

Never heard of it. I've heard of like Cyberpowerpc.com but I think it's easiest if you could just construct one yourself by getting parts from Newegg, etc. Just don't get **** from major companies (by that I mean full computers from Dell/Apple.)

I think i saw some bundles. But again.. why not just make your own? Too lazy to spend ~4 hours fixing it up and getting **** back to standard on it?

Yeah, use Newegg. It's really not hard to build a computer - just watch some tutorials or have a friend put it together for you. A custom computer is really much better than a pre-assembled one.

but each piece has a warranty.
It's really easy to claim the warranty is void due to malpractice though.

I know people who bought from iBuyPower, and the computers ended up being faulty and iBuyPower wouldn't refund/replace the broken parts and wires.

(Own opinion here: Why not just make your own, it's cheaper and helps you know how to remove and replace components later on when you're upgrading, because these things sometimes change per motherboard/case)
