PortatechReviews of portatech.com

Relatively easy to use interface, and the prices were the best I was able to find. Assuming the parts are as advertised, I'll be happy to use this site again.

Portatech has good selection of components for computer customization and on the positive note, they will test out the whole setup for you before shipping. I haven't found any shop that does that, in turn it will saves you a lot of time and trouble when parts were not working properly.

The build process is fantastic, very easy to use. The 'Click for Details' function for each item is great to have for comparison. I just ordered, so cannot give more feedback on service, etc, but the build and ordering were quite streamlined. I would have liked to have more case options; the basic case only has USB 2.0 front ports... I don't want all the flashy stuff, and the next option for a plain case with USB 3.0 was a $69 upgrade. I looked at cyberpowerpc.com but they don't offer the flexibility of PortaTech... you can't opt out of Win10 for instance: have it, don't need it again! I'll update this review as time goes on. Hope the rest of the experience is as good as the initial order process. If it is, will add another star! Update: So, it took 3 weeks to receive my order. To be fair, it was just outside the projected delivery window. Still, 3 weeks for a case, mobo, cpu, SSD, and memory is a stretch. There are some reviews that say communication is not there... I had rapid email response for several questions, and while for a billing question was sent to a center in India, my tech question was taken by the company in Cali. While it took 3 weeks to get my barebones gear, I couldn't be happier. I would highly recommend this site for your upgrades, just be aware that it may take some time. For the price, the time is worth it. 5 stars but for the time to receive the build

Easy to understand and review items in build

it was easier doing a search on google to find what we wanted vs. being able to use the website. I am a novice to "building your own" CPU.

easy to use website and nice to have an explanation for each item

Glad to have found this place. Assembled PC for the same price as parts!

Helpful when trying to find compatible parts when building a desktop computer.
