|
 |
I'm looking for a website that let's you build your own pc from the hardware that you want and then builds it together and warranty on the whole rig.
It's for a friend in the US, we got websites like this here, but they don't ship overseas.

The places you want to order from here in the states is Newegg.com, microcenter.com, Tigerdirect.com in that order.

The thing is, the guy can't build his pc himself or even maintain it.
So i'm forced to get it where they build it for him and give support on it.

Where does he live? I can maintain it for him for the regular 60 bux an hour.
The squirrel got it right with newegg. They have a nice selection of pre-builds, and ready to build PCs. With other vendors you might save 20 bux but once in a while you will be missing a RAM stick or two. Also going to the local Chinese distributor doesn't make sense anymore, since it's better to get it for the same price from a reputable source. As far as support goes, I got no clue.

Isn't getting it locally an option then? If he lives even in a mid-size city finding a decent shop shouldn't be a big problem. It's just that if he can't do even simple troubleshooting by himself, it'll be a pain to keep sending it back and forth all the time. Doing it locally would save a lot of time, even if it costs a bit more initially.
