iBUYPOWER Reviews

My computer arrived 3 weeks after purchasing it. Had I known it was going to take so long, I would have probably paid the extra money to have it "rushed". I will say that I did like how I received emails at every step along the way. Each time the PC build moved to another step along the building process, I was emailed. It is a very nice feature so that I am not left wondering where it is. They charge extra for professional wiring, though I believe they are professionals and shouldn't be charging for this feature. It should just be standard practice for PC builders. Anything for an extra buck, I guess. That just means your wires are nice and tidy, not that you get any special wiring.
I just received my PC yesterday, so I can't attest to the longevity of the build, but I can say this, there is an annoying persistent high-pitched sound coming from the computer. I do believe that one of the fans is faulty and that is causing the sound. Thankfully that is one of the easier and cheaper things to replace if it is to go completely out, but when the PC passed through quality control, they should have caught that and addressed it immediately. Instead, they decided it wasn't worth the effort and sent it on through anyways.
The computer is beautiful and exactly what I pictured it being, though the LEDs seem to be stuck on this weird yellow color and I have yet to figure out how to change them to a nice, clean white. I had to install the graphics card myself and that went smoothly. Everything inside the case was set up and ready for the card to be installed with instructions on how to install the GPU. They did warn me of this when building the PC and I agree with them on this. The new GPUs are too big to ship already installed.
I know that the AIO I ordered was a new model, but the guys at IBP should have done their homework. If they had, they would have known to install the tubes on the bottom instead of the side for best performance. A 10-minute look at the product online told me that much. No worries though, an easy enough fix. I just wish I didn't have to go back through and correct their laziness. It still functions as is, but it would have been nice if they would have paid a little more attention to that detail. (Yes, I'm nitpicking, but as much money as I spent on this machine, I expect excellent quality).
The product was packaged very well. It came in a comically large box that the UPS man was probably cursing about (along with probably having to go see a chiropractor after). The computer tower was shipped inside the case's original box, then packaged into another box along with the graphics card and a new keyboard and mouse, and a lot of foam padding. Everything arrived in good condition, and nothing was damaged from shipping.
I haven't looked at the mouse and keyboard very closely, but the mouse is pretty nice but wired. The keyboard looks to be maybe a hybrid of mechanical and membrane. I haven't taken the keys off to be sure, but I doubt it is a mechanical keyboard. I already had a very nice keyboard and mouse, so I chose to give those items to my son. At least they give you something. If you had nothing to start with, the mouse and keyboard would be sufficient to get you started and probably plenty good for everyday use.
I still give this product 4 stars because it was put together nicely and at a reasonable price. I've built my own computers in the past, but I just don't have the time to do that, so having someone else take that load off me is nice. I would purchase from IBP in the future, with a better understanding of how they work and what to expect. If I run into any issues in the near future, I will update my review.

At the time of purchase, this was an excellent price for me, with a Brand new and unique PC Case that is out of the ordinary. The system was delivered in 3 days From California to New York. And runs Great, I had to add more memory and bigger M.2 NVMe SSD, but only because this one was replacing an old model PC not compatible with Windows 11, but hardware (Ram and SSD) just need it to be swapped.
After transferring all my files to new PC and reformatting the M.2 NVMe SSD I am happy as I can be and Looking to Buy another (would be my 5th System from them.) Highly recommend this company, for the RDY systems or the Build it Yourself systems. For quality and Price, it cannot be beat! I highly recommend to all that are looking for a competitive Windows system at a reasonable price.

I researched how much it would cost me to build my new custom PC myself. Without including shipping from 4 different stores for all the parts, iBuypower saved me close to $300 by buying through them for the exact same parts I wanted. I looked at competitors' websites and they either didn't have the parts I wanted or were more expensive than doing it myself. After I placed my order, I called 2 separate times to upgrade both my motherboard and my GPU selection. Each time was fast and easy. Longest call wait time was about 5 minutes. The only issue I had was a broken link emailed to me to pay the additional price of the upgraded parts. A quick phone call and it was resent and resolved. Shipping was fast and it came well packaged.
The GPU shipped uninstalled as it was a 4090, and they gave me $20 dollars off to install it myself. Saving me both money and the risk of it breaking my motherboard in shipment. The cable management is awesome, couldn't be better unless it was custom cables. I was surprised as I didn't pay the extra for cable management. They offered a free led strip when I ordered and I expected to have to install it myself, but they even installed it for me. They include all stickers, manuals and extra cables in the box. Great experience and I would recommend them to a friend.
I purchased a custom prebuilt from Ibuypower about a month ago and it was a fantastic experience. They keep you updated along the way letting you know where your pc is in each step of the process. It took about 2 week from order to receiving and it was very well packaged and built. I ordered Ryzen 7 5800x CPU, ASRock motherboard, rtx3080 and ibuypower 2 fan liquid cooler with 32gb ram and 1 TB nvme drive and 2 TB HDD. Some of those things they just send what they have. They don't specify brands. I received MSI Ventus + OC graphics card and Gskill Ripjaw ram. The pc runs flawlessly and I couldn't be more happy with it.
Cons: The way the fans are wired I can only change all the fans RGB lighting together not individually. Small gripe doesn't affect performance so doesn't really bother me. Planning to upgrade fans later. Polychrome is the program used with this motherboard and they preloaded an outdated version. I couldn't adjust fan colors out of the box. Had to find the newest version on ASRock's website. Another minor gripe that only took me a short time to remedy. I would definitely recommend Ibuypower if you, like me, are not quite ready to build your own pc. After console gaming for my whole life pc gaming is a whole new ballgame and I couldn't be happier.
I was hesitant before buying from iBuypower. I'm a loyal Dell customer and I bought all of my pc and laptop and other things from Dell. But, after reading reviews and comparing to other retailers, ibuypower offers the most valuable offer that other retailers couldn't do. I ordered/purchased ibuypower according to what I need (special build and on my tight budget). It took me 1.5 week till I received my pc.
During that waiting moment ibuypower kept on updating me with the progress from collecting part to assembly and to preparing for shipping. When I received the PC I was surprise how ibuypower packaged and handled the package and shipping. It was so carefully boxed with a lot of foam around it (basically carefully packaged). Opened it up, setting it up (all came with instructions how to), fired it up (took me about 30 minutes or so due to updates), and my goodness the casing with lights (never experience it before) and all the leds inside the case and.... Wow the pc runs good and fast (Ryzen 7 5800x, rtx 3060ti, 32gb ram, 1tb wd pce-i ssd). The quickest pc I have ever own.
I'm sooo happy with my purchase from ibuypower. My only feedback, can ibuypower change the type of keyboard and mice. They are so cheap and for Gaming PC this caliber (especially when your Rig cost you $1,799 and up), those keyboard MEK 3 or ARES M2 and mice ARES M2 are really bad. I had to purchase Steelseries APEX-5 keyboard and Steelseries Sensei Ten to be up to par with my new Ibuypower Gaming PC. So bottomline, Ibuypower it's the best ... Value and Quality.

- Got a great PC in just 2 days.
- I did ask them to delay shipping one day but still had it sent without the day delay. Fedex sometimes will forge your signature and leave the package on the porch. Thankfully, this Fedex driver didn't and still had it hand-delivered and was able to check for damage (none found).
- I did see that price was not showing tax in the total and came to a surprise when I saw that I had been charged extra $250; I would have considered other PCs if I would have seen that total price as I was paying. Still got a bargain with a 4090 and almost no setup time for $3445.
Overall great experience and enjoying the PC thus far. Thank you guys!
This is definitely the best Power PC I've ever owned. Customer Service was very helpful and kept me up to date and fixed any issues immediately. I would recommend IBuyPower to anyone! The PC worked right out of the box.
Came perfectly packaged. Took about 2 1/2 weeks to arrive. PC works perfectly for playing Call of Duty etc. The only thing is that the memory stick got chipped a little bit. Otherwise it was an awesome experience and would order from again!
Bought a pc and it works amazing! Trace MR 2040! Picked it up at Best Buy and the packaging was fantastic. Once unboxed I had to open it and fix a few cables that came apart during shipping and it booted up perfectly. The rgb is amazing.
Amazing PC built at an extremely cheap price, performs way better than my old PC that cost way more definitely will buy from in the future. Also great customer service, extremely happy with my purchase.
