i want to buy myself a new pc something high spec and was going to get myself a multivision system but after a bit of detective work using rommulus i have decided against them because of the apparent poor after sales service. my question then is has any1 here bought themselves a maxx pc and if so what kind experiences you have had as regards stability performance and after sales service, any comments will be greatly appreciated as i have been stung before and would not like to repeat the experience.

I think it would be worth buying one- seeing all the awards MAXX PCs have won. The other good part is that they are made for gaming, unlike most PCs.

I've said this before and i shall say it again, build one yourself because then you'll know exactly what your putting in the machine and you also get the satisfaction of saying to yourself 'look what i've built'. Also you'll be able to save yourself a bit of money, just shop around and compare prices before you commit yourself to buying any parts.

I'm actually ordering all my stuff for my new PC at the end of the month, i'm just waiting for pay day!

If you don't know how to build computer check out this website it's pretty detailed and it's not to confusing http://www.pcmech.com/byopc/

One more piece of advice if you are going to build your own PC, buy a decent motherboard, cos in the long run it'll work out cheaper that way because when and if you want to upgrade all you have to do is change your processor.

thanks for the advice silent but i'm just not tech savvy enough to risk trying to build my own high end machine, i will no doubt end up spending more due to silly mistakes i will inevitably make along the way maybe i will build a little un in the future tho as a first time effort and will keep your advice in mind

Silent, you seem to forget that not everyone is comfortable building their own computer. Especially if its their first PC.

You have to start somewhere and with the way PC's are designed today they go together as easy as a jigsaw puzzle and the only really technical thing about them is the bios and when it comes to installing your software.

Building a PC brings out the kid in you.

Its a cross between Lego and Mecanno.

Hehe.
