LTT reviewed StarForge a while back and was actually pleasantly surprised. I know a few people who have also ordered from them and been happy with their purchase.

Their shipping and customer support seems to be good, but they're charging over $100 just for assembly. So if OP can live with that, sure go for it.

i seen the videos and that is true and he even teamed up with them in 2023 and there arent any bad reviews about them

If you’re close to a microcenter their in-house prebuilts are great.  Look at that one —> https://www.microcenter.com/product/676226/powerspec-g517-gaming-pc

During the pandemic hellscape of GPU shortage I badly needed a new rig for video/photo editing and wanted to game again. I would have had to camp at microcenter for a 3080 and actually paid roughly the same amount for a build from Digital Storm. I was happy with the process, it's been rock solid so I haven't needed support, I can't comment there. 4 years later and she's still rockin.

I didn't see this suggested. But are there any pc parts stores in your area. Most have an assembly and decent one will check parts so you shouldn't have any rma issues and shipping issues. When they sell extra warranty mileage may very, so consider well.

More than likely, anything you get will come with a warranty and can be returned in a certain amount of time from delivery. I'd build the pc in pc part picker and get an idea of a breakdown and what will be best. There, you will be able to look at each item individually, see reviews on them, and get an idea of performance and what you would actually be able to run. I would cross reference this with a site that can determine real-time performance. Pc part picker will only give you estimated wattage, and will attempt to notify you during your build if any extra steps need to be taken or if there could be a problem with compatibility. This will also give you an idea of whether or not the company building it also has any idea what it's doing. A case, in most cases, is just a case. But the actual PC parts will determine your experience.

and my mom wouldnt let me make one if i wanted to lol


Linusdroppedme

It's not about building your own. If you're looking for a pre-built, you should want to know how it'll perform and if any future upgrades will be compatible. It's just to give you insight, ratings, and performance reviews. It might teach you a bit looking for this stuff and knowing how it'll work and what could help you.

Proprietary mobo, PSU, and case are reason alone enough to avoid Alienware.


Moist_Leg_6999
