"Took only 17 days from placing order to the time it arrived at my door-step -- not bad for a custom-built computer!
Overall, I am very happy with this build. Screaming fast components assembled and tested together for less than you can buy them separately!
My only complaint is that my system didn't come with the latest updated motherboard BIOS, which led to my CPU being detected and running at a much slower rate than it was meant to. It was kind of a pain in the butt to go through the motions of flashing the new BIOS: download the firmware from manufacturer's web-site, download a special utility to format the USB flash drive as a system disk with DOS (from a Windows 98SE Emergency Boot Disk floppy) on it, copy over the BIOS image file, reboot on the new system with USB-HDD boot method enabled in BIOS, flash it, and reboot... but at the end of the day I had a fully functional full-speed system.
I will definitely be buying from XtreamGear again."
"Kudo's to the gang at BuyXg.com, they worked very hard to make sure everything was just right on our order. Great products for a great price. I'm sure this will not be the last order from me.

"Great experience, ordering was painless, communication was thorough and thanks to their online order tracking I knew exactly where my PC was in the process at all times.
The build was impeccable. All the components were exactly as I ordered with one major exception: Xtreme gear upgraded my speakers from Logitech 2.1 speakers to Logitech 5.1 speakers (a retail price difference of ~$50) for no charge.
The shipping was the best experience with computer or entertainment hardware I've ever had. The packaging was extremely secure including foam within the case itself.
Great job and thanks for the problem-free build!"
"Excellent prices and customer service - my computer system was delivered in a timely manner and works great! It cuts through games - old and new - like butter and so far has been very quiet and stable.
The sales staff are awesome and you won't find a better deal online in my experience, even if you try and buy all the parts separately and put it all together yourself (believe me, I looked). "
"What a great experience! I ordered online - and it was a very simple process. Then a sales rep called to confirm my order. It arrived on time and booted perfectly. I'll definately order from them again~!"
"I have zero complaints about Joe and the service, quality, and products that he and buyxg.com provide. Everything was 100% perfect, and I could not have asked for a better experience. I paid for next day rush and ground shipping, but Joe contacted me and said due to the extra number of orders they had because of tax season and leftover from the holidays, 1 day rush wasn't possible, so he had my rig built 2 business days after my order, and my shipping was switched to 2 day, and he also recommended I upgrade my power supply, and I didn't have to pay anything extra.
Everything was great, and this rig was bought to add a 2nd computer to the house so my wife and I could play City of Villains together, and we are so happy, that now we have decided that next tax season we will be buying from buyxg again and replacing the older computer in the house with one from there. This is the best experience with a web purchase I have ever had, and recommend buyxg to anyone."
"GREAT company. Very helpful, and very good prices. Will definitely buy from again"
"I was very pleased with my purchase from Xtreme Gear. They built an excellent multipurpose computer, and shipped it to me quickly. The computer works excellent. Compared to a cookie cutter computer from Best Buy, their products are far superior. I shopped around alot online and found their prices to bew the best. "
"I have bout two Computers from This seller and am extremly satisfied. They offer what i want the are willing to build to my specifications and thier prices are very reasonable. I have had nothing but good service from them in the past and will continue to use them as my Computer store of choice."
"After 2 month my system still work and I'm very happy. Price is almost the same if you build you own comp. Great job."
"Great service and fast processing! I got a call the next morning (I ordered my product late at night) and they confirmed my order over the phone. My product was here after a few business days and I am very satisfied with the shipping cost since I live in Hawaii."
"When you buy on their website, its says "WILL SHIP IN 7-10 DAYS " how about three weeks instead.
I'm very disappointed with XtremeGear.com. I ordered my computer on 12/12 and I was hoping to receive it by 12/25 at the latest. This was supposed to be a New Years gift for my younger brother in NY.After I ordered the computer, 3 days later sales rep calls me and tells me that I will receive it after december of 2008. Then he offers me a deal that he can get it shipped to my house by 25th, if I pay 50 dollars extra for faster assembly. Like an idiot I agreed and paid extra 50 dollars.
Since the time was to short for me I was worried that I wont get my computer on time i cancelled the order that same day.I thought I will order two when I came back from NY in January, 1 for my brother and the other one for myself.The sales guy made it look like I was going to receive my refund the same day.They refunded my money 13 days later and my bank charged me 120 dollar fee for not crediting the money the same day of the cancel. I called XtremeGear back and explained them that my bank required a letter to be faxed from the murchant that says XtremeGear refunded 11 days later from the initial cancel and the fee will be waived but they refused a damn letter. This shall pass Ill just order from someone else who is more professional and custumer friendly.
DONT BUY FROM XTREMEGEAR, STAY AWAY FROM THEM.

"Great seller! I ordered the Hawking Broadband Booster at a Dirt Cheap price and received it in no time! Thanks BuyXG!"
"This is my second purchase with Xtreme Gear and I've been incredibly satisfied both times. The prices are almost too good to be true. I've built my own systems before and it was going to cost me just as much (if not more) to build a comparable system myself. Shipping seems a little steep to me, but I still think its worth it. I got everything I paid for and the amount of options they give you to configure your own system is excellent. I got to pick all of my favorite brands and know exactly what I get. The build time was a little longer than expected (order was placed during Christmas season), but it shipped much quicker than I had expected! I highly recommend this company and their products!"
"As a systems builder located in IL, we have to say that we have had nothing but EXCELLENT service with all of our purchases. We have purchased over 40+ cases and Joe Briggs goes the extra mile to ensure that our orders ship out as quickly as possible, usually the same day. For those customers that have had problems with an order and future customers, please understand that computer components are very temperamental and it makes no sense to blame the builder or seller for a manufacturer failure. Not all problems are easily resolved with just a phone call, it would be nice but it's not that simple. So PLEASE allow any company ample time to resolve an issue should you have one before posting bad comments. We had a shipment of WD Hard Drives Green Drives and 5 out of 8 were defective. It's a manufacturer problem as they drives would be recognized and the next minute not be. Thankfully, our customers were understanding that it was not our fault and we sent replacements immediately. Thanks Joe for all your hard work and dedication, it will not go unrewarded. "
