ibuypower was pretty cool, i got a pc from them a year or two ago
 
*thiefs computer*

It would be cool if we had some website like that in NZ.

Cool computer. Play HL2 on it or be reprimanded, not by me though.
 
Interesting first post. Congratulations.
 
So he created a new account because he upgraded his computer?

Anyway, beast of a build.
 
Haha, nice PC man.
Good that ya changed the name from P4 and back to a name with Alan.
 
I feel like a fool. A foolish fool. :(
 
Whatever happened to his original account name? Was it Alan Freeman or was that another?

Anyway, nice PC. I hope you have another hard drive to use because...well I thought 80gb would be enough myself, but it just ain't :(
Have fun with that graphics card :D

should NOT have bought from iBuypower.
They have a TERRIBLE rating on ressellerratings.....4.5/10
http://www.resellerratings.com/store/iBUYPOWER
Also, HardOCP gave them a 2/10 (best hardware review site out there)

There have terrible service and really bad build quality. If you have a problem with your computer, good luck with their support.
You should have went with a company like velocity micro or falcon NW or something....
If I were you I'd cancel that order right now.....ibuypower is a shit building company. I had a friend get a comp from there and they shipped it without the correct proc and video card and it took him 4 weeks of fighting with tech support to get it fixed.....

Five of my friends have purchased their computers from there and have had nothing but good products. They never needed to bother with customer service. Of course, there is one time they totally screwed up. My friend purchased his computer at least a month ago, and they canceled the order or something because the credit card was declined, but the limit and everything on the card was perfect still. So they called iBuy, and they sorted everything out and even gave him free 2 day express shipping.
It was a Christmas gift anyway.

I recommend www.ibuypower.com.

You'd hope a brand new pc would last you a little longer than just a year.....
