Wouldn't buy a PC from them. Looks like they are overpriced and use so-so parts.

Go with Newegg. Good prices and the service is second to none.

These sites come up here from time to time. Some people have had good luck with both, but others have had some pretty major problems. Pretty stupid stuff that shouldn't happen. Check out the resellerratings:

Ibuypower: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/iBUYPOWER

CyberPower: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/CyberPower

CyberPower actually seems to have cleaned up since my last check, but I'd still buy the parts and build myself. The have been 'major' problems with both in the past, so just buyer beware.
