Sadly I have a laptop by them. And it is thee worst one I've ever owned. Maybe it was just bad timing or what...I am not sure but I was really turned off. 

 

Ya there laptops were crap. My sister in law had one and it worked great for about 8 months then started having random problems untill the HDD up and quit. She had it "fixed" (AKA they sent her a new pre loaded HDD and my brother "put it in" lol) and promptly sold it on FB Marketplace and got an HP Omen 15 "gaming laptop". She's very happy with it. The 4th and 5th gen AMD mobile CPUs are very power efficient as well and can increase battery life by 2-4 hours compared to a similarly specced Intel chip. Hers has the AMD Ryzen 5 5600H and RTX 3060. It was $999.99 or some shit lol, on sale on 2020s black friday. They normally sell for around $1200.

 

Just going by all of the reviews and benchmarks and stuff it seems to be better built than the iBuyPower stuff. Especially knowing that iBuyPower uses cheap ass Asrock or very low end Asus motherboards and generic power supplys and memory in there low and mid tier gaming PCs. And there cases with the glass front panels are a big problem as far as thermals. 

 

ABS makes really decent $1,000-$1,500 PCs with alot better components.

This one is really nice.

ABS sells there PCs on Newegg. Here is there PCs. Alot to choose from.

Oh Queenie darling, Uncle Rob feels compelled to return to help you wicked lady, in memory of those threesomes you me and Ayaq used to enjoy (in the forums of course). I pop back occasionally to check the idiots are behaving, unfortunately they are, how boring the forum is nowadays. So I will give you some help in a way only you, me and @baldie understand. I know you will take this the right way (no pun intended), you are still some 'gal'.

Firstly regarding this laptop, so sorry to hear that unusually you were 'turned off' ? perhaps if you sat on uncle Robs lap so I could fiddle around in your laptop it would turn you on ? the offer is always there, no charge dear lady.

Let me assist in building a Queenie suitable computer from afar, one that suits you, so before you plough (she'll get this) any money in lets look at some of the 69 components needed.

Firstly a HARD drive, guessing you'll want a 'big un'?

Memory, let Rob tweak those twin frequencies until they are hot and singing, we can then move to other parts

I think we should go the barebone route, saves time, permanent 'on' switch

Many times the boys have dreamt about you being a suitable motherboard, to bring you up to date recommend Rob 'flashes' your bios, wink wink

Afraid I can't find any soundcard that stifles screams effectively, just use on board

You may wish to wait awhile until prices are 'going down'

There, is that any help? over and out from Rob until the next idiot needs me, always on call
