I was very pleased with my experience with Digital Storm. They kept me up-to-date on the progress of the build, inspections and shipping information. I never felt out of the loop. The build (Vanquish 3 Level 4) was also shipped sooner than I expected. They received my order on Monday and it was at my door by the very next Monday. After missing UPS on the arrival date, I went to the UPS customer service center to pick it up, which they wouldnt allow because of shipping restrictions. They told me I had to call the shipper and have them lower the restriction. I called Digital Storm near the end of the day, and not only were they very friendly and helpful, but they also didnt hesitate to contact UPS. Within a matter of minutes, I was walking to my car with my new computer. The computer build itself was top notch and well put together. It was packed carefully and was pretty much ready to go as soon as I powered it up. It came with a nice little binder containing important documents (specs, warranty info etc) and backup discs. This is a nice step up compared to some other custom PC builders Ive ordered from in the past (where documents and discs are just thrown in the empty motherboard box). Overall, I was walked away a happy customer without regrets or buyer's remorse. When the time comes for me to buy another PC, I look forward to buying from them again. read more

Wow so an update. I was left a response by Jericho from digital storm to contact their customer service representative and literally within 8 days, I had not only a graphics card in my hands but they also upgraded my 2060 graphics card to a 3060 GEFORCE RTX!!! (Only due to them being out of my d graphics card)This was an amazingly fast response and the representative I worked with was a excellent, wish I can remember his name but unfortunately I can't. Although it was unfortunate that I had to wait this long for it, the eventual response was quick and I really appreciated the upgrade. Thanks Jericho! read more

Back in November, I ordered a Vanquish for my son as a Christmas gift. It finally arrived in the middle of January. After two days of using the computer, it died. After a week of calling and setting up m RMA, I sent it back. Come to find out there were several defective parts installed in the computer, including the processor and bad ram. It is now March and the last communications I received from Digital Storm was Feb 12, which was 3 emails sent two minutes apart, Stages 2,3 and 4. I called and spoke to Ronda, Jose and someone else, and no one can seem to answer any of my questions on the status of my order. I continue to hear excuses of "that person" is not in right now, but I will send them a message. I would love to give this company a glorified review, but I am totally disappointed in the customer service, and definitely the so-called rigorous testing that this company does on its products. I had it for 2 days before it crashed on me, and yet their testing process takes 2-3 weeks. I would have thought after all of that type of testing, they would have found the issue. One time I called and someone told me they were short mannned and backlogged. That is not the customer's problem, yet I was made to feel that by calling and asking for the progress on my repair was a burden. I would like to hear from a human some straight answers on my repair and I would like to know when will it be sent back to me. I chose this company because of the perceived amazing ratings and your quality standards, but I am shocked that I cannot find any truth in it. If I ever get my computer back and it works for longer than a week, I would consider updating this review. Until then, I have nothing nice to say about this company. I just want my expensive computer sent back to me expeditiously and working. read more

Don't order from these guys unless you want to wait 2+ months for a computer, only to find out they put the wrong mother board in, and that it'll take another month for them to correct it, and send it back! read more

I don't write many reviews but I felt compelled to write this one because I couldn't believe all the negative comments by previous posters. That is not to diminish or take away from their experience but it is very contrary to my recent purchase/experience with Digital Storm. I recently bought one of their "Apollo" models on March 10, 2016, maxed out as much as my budget could afford. Not having the IT savvy to build a computer like this on my own, Digital Storm made the most sense for me price wise and spec wise. Allowing me the ability to upgrade it as needs be, without spending a fortune. After I submitted my order I was regularly notified, via email, as to where my new computer was in the process of being built. I was amazed with how efficient and timely they were in keeping me updated on what specifically was going on, detailing what they were doing and giving a timeline of when I could expect delivery. Two weeks later, here I am, with my new rig and I couldn't be happier. As a total gamer nerd it has exceeded every expectation. I can run Tom Clancy's Division (came with purchase) on maxed out settings and it looks glorious! Truly awesome. I cannot express enough how pleased I am with my purchase. I highly recommend Digital Storm for folks like me who know what they want, but don't know how to build it on their own. On a final note, one of the great things about the Apollo is that it is highly modifiable and upgradable. So with a little know how and the help of youtube, I will be able to keep this baby going for years to come. read more

If you found this company online, keep looking. I have purchased a computer with them back in October. I paid $60 to get it delivery, Fedex signed on my package, dropped it off outside the leasing office which is two blocks away from the address I provided. It has been lost since then. Digital Storm have been stringing me along for 8 months, with fake deadlines and no follow up unless I call. Last week tell me that there's nothing they can do about it even though they have all the proof that I did not receive the computer. Ron and Keith from management aren't helpful or transparent. Now I am taking them and Fedex to court. I wish I have never found this company. read more

I've had this computer since December 2017 and I've had nothing but problem after problem after problem in fact the first day it came in the connectors that go to the wireless Wi-Fi weren't even screwed in right, it's like they were indented, like put in completely wrong and then the they realized they were too far ahead to start over so they decided to just leave it like that even after a quality check that has three rounds, not to mention the motherboard was set too far back from the PCI slots, AND the water cooling system fans we're on the wrong connectors and possibly configured with the incorrect layout( pump above the loop, still researching) also excessive thermal paste use the list goes on so don't ever buy from these guys! They should warn people about compatibility issues while using there shoddy building webpage. They don't know what they're doing, seriously, just stay away. Go with AVAdirect or Puget systems! read more

I have ordered a pricey keyboard and tower from DigitalStorm.com. Everything for the first few weeks seemed to be going just fine. I received semi regular updates about my PC order's progress, including information on a delay or two. Even received one or two non automated emails it seemed. However the last time I heard from them was on Decemeber 11th, 2018. They stated the next estimated shipping date was 7-12 business days from December 11th, 2018. The problem is today is January 1st, 2019. I understand that they have holiday orders, but they should have at least given me some notifications. I have read other complaints mentioning ridiculous wait times and/or getting lost in the shuffle type stuff, which were supposedly not resolved until they voiced a lot of complaints aimed at DigitalStorm.com. I have also made my first payment to them via Bread, their financing partners. I would be happy to pay them more if they would just send me my PC order in good shape. They are noted for taking extra time to put everything together and test it. But that should have either ended by now or I should have received an email as to why it has not finished. For further clarification, I am supposedly at Stage 4 of their process, with Stage 6 being the last. read more

Beware... I have been trying to get a hold of someone about my order that is still not shipped. Always get a recording when calling, no callbacks. It was financed and I have been making payments but no laptop. I want to cancel this order and get my money bak from the finance company. I made a mistake by not checking Yelp first. read more

This is complex... I waited 6 weeks for the Lumos pc (which means light), and it came without lights... because when I built it and clicked through add-ons for the light pc, the default was no lights. I contacted support. They sent me lights that I've given up trying to put in because apparently I won't get the three light rings in the front, so why bother. Then I contacted support 3 times about software to control the fans. Three times they closed my ticket without answering my question. To be honest, the pc shreds for gaming, but the overall experience has left me with a bitter taste in my mouth. Unfortunately, I can't recommend. read more

Very upset at the lack of communication to the costumer and failure to hit multiple deadlines you as a company set for yourselves. I placed a order for a PC on 4/15/20 and the website said it would ship close to the end of April no big deal, well end of April is closing and I haven't gotten a single update so I call and they say early May so again I give you guys the benefit of the doubt with the global health crisis going on and everything, well early May comes and I don't hear anything so I call on 5/7/20 and they say oh it should ship this week or the next well come to find out that was a load of crap because it took till yesterday 5/13/20 for me to get a solid ship date and it took me sending a message on the site the day before then calling not once but twice just to be told it won't ship for till the 5/25/20 and by the time it actually gets to me it will probably be June. The wild thing is my buddy decided to build his PC and ordered the parts from you guys and I put in my order on the same day as him he got all his parts within a week and a half of his order and built the PC in less then a couple hours on his first ever build, so riddle me this why is it that it takes you guys who in your own words have "over a decade of experience in building the world's most advanced custom gaming computers" over a month for one PC and I don't want to hear the it takes time for all the stress testing because at the most that should take a day. This experience had left a really sour taste in my mouth. TLDR: DONT BUY PREBUILT PCs FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I did my best to research a place online to buy a gaming computer that I could just plug in and use. I saw that Digital Storm didn't seem to have the best reviews, so I was skeptical; however, not only has their customer service been super helpful and readily available, my new computer works great. It came with very basic instructions. I basically plugged it in and it works great. No hassle. I promised them I would submit a review if they earned, and I believe they certainly have. I recommend their computers to anyone who doesn't want the hassle of building their own. Thank you everyone at Digital Storm. read more

I've had my Vanquish for 2 years now and it still runs like a champ. Lightning fast boot up from the SSD and clean config right out the box. This machine does everything I want it to and more. Totally satisfied with the computer for production and gaming. I haven't thrown a lot of high end 3D work or rendering tasks at it but I'm not worried at all to run anything anytime. The best part of their customer service is that I haven't even had to think about contacting them even once. I'd buy from them again when I need a new machine in about 5-6 years. read more

Okay, I'm back and my rating hasn't changed. In fact, I would gladly lower it if I could; I'm furious. Since my last review, my computer has broken two more times and now I'm the laughing stock of my friends for buying a four thousand dollar paperweight. So I had thought about updating my review to a three-star rating if I got my rig back with the damage covered by the warranty - which I did! However, it broke again approximately two months later. In my previous review, the GPU water block was leaking onto the bottom of the chassis and one of the memory sticks had some defunct sectors. The second time my rig died was because the water block over the CPU had a fine crack in it, leading to another leak. It took two weeks for me to get my rig back after they repaired that. Now, my rig is sitting on my kitchen counter because of another leak. I took a look at it and it looks like one of the washers for the compression fitting for the tubing above the CPU block had cracked. Right now, I don't know what to do. Every time this piece of garbage breaks, it's a two week turn around to get it back from repairs and then it's just going to break again a month or two later. I can't return it because it's past the return period. In my mind, I lost four grand. I'm starting to think that Digital Storm just bulk orders broken parts and refurbished parts to save a dime. If you're reading this review to decide whether or not to buy a computer from Digital Storm... just don't. Like, holy mother of god, just don't. read more

Short version: It took a very long time (longer than their estimate) to get the final product. I received my PC just under two MONTHS after ordering. However, the final product is fantastic. Would be 5 stars if it was faster. Longer version: Price: You pay more for them to--theoretically--save you time building a PC. I paid approximately 500.00 USD more to have them build, source, and install the parts for me. Was it worth it? Honestly, yes. This is highly subjective as it relies on how an individual values their time/energy. At this point in my life I'd rather pay someone 50 percent more to deal with building a PC. If that sounds crazy to you, then don't do it. Simple. Timeframe: They seem to have a dedication to quality to the point of completely missing their timing approximations. This combined with a undoubtedly busy season means I ordered expecting about a month between the invoice date and shipping. I got nearly twice that. A total of 50 days. Quality: Apparently I was lucky because my PC wasn't damaged or hurt during shipment. I've noticed a large amount of these reviews are negative for (mostly) some shoddy shipping. But my experience was fine. When I opened the box and got the PC out I made sure to check connections, check seating of video card, check seating of RAM, etc. It was all solid and I didn't have to do a thing. Performance: Fans were installed correctly and the Windows 10 Install only came with the usual bloat Microsoft adds. I've monitored temps over the past 24 hours under various loads and it seems perfectly fine, which suggests thermal paste and MOBO/PSU are performing as expected. Communication: Not terrible, could be much better. If I was a consultant @ Digital Storm I'd revamp this immediately. They have a staging system that updates you as your PC moves along the "assembly" line. It...doesn't tell the end consumer much when your first three stages take longer than the last three plus time to ship to the customer. I suggest they take some staging to a more micro level in the beginning ("We've sourced your video card! It is on the way to us and/or in our warehouse.") instead of relying on customers to trust being in the dark. People get understandably anxious because to the vast majority of Americans 1500~ USD is a SIGNIFICANT amount of money. They want to and deserve to know more. When I inquired about the status of my order once they basically told me what I already knew. Didn't reassure me that everything is fine and they are super busy or anything. Just...told me what I knew. They need to work on this the most. read more

I am pleased with my purchase and will continue to shop with them. I have had one issue where the hard drive is not working. But I have not had the time too call in and correct this problem. All and all I am happy with it. read more

Where can I start? If you're thinking about buying from here watch out for their 20% labor charges. I normally build my PC's however I felt as though I should give this company a chance because they really caught my eye... All their products and components are so expensive and I assume it's due to their "Professional" skills. I purchased a bolt 3 and payed alot of hard earned money. I was told by their representative about how trustworthy they are, and how great their techs are etc... 1 month after receiving my computer my PSU fails and won't boot properly. Video of my issue: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz6VL9oAiYyUS1psYUZRNm5vd1U/view?usp=sharing After weeks of testing under their inexperienced technicians, they told me to send in my computer because they had no fucking idea what they did when they built it. I couldn't handle the risk of the problem returning and asked for a refund. They charged me 74 bucks for shipping. Additionally they wrongfully charged me an incorrect amount on my pc. My bills says: "2,535" but my bank statement says "2609!" what the hell is that about? not only that however they lack the intelligence to do simple math. A rep told me that they will refund the full price I paid (2,609) and subtract $73.83 for shipping. I swallow my pride and say fine. As I read on I read "the grand total of the refund will be $2,460.36 if we do find a hardware issue with the PC" I will never buy from here again. I put my guard down because I felt as though they really cared about my experience. But like most companies, they're only in it for your pockets. Save yourself the trouble and money and build your own pc's guys. #1 They will be better #2 You will gain experience and useful knowledge. Digital storm? Never again. Prebuilt computers? Never again. Trust a corp? Never again. Thanks for the painful lesson. The reason for my utmost anger is the betrayal of trust. Shame on me. read more

I spent about 5 grand on a new computer hoping to get top notch performance. The result? the computer blue screens every time the processor hits 100%. I work full time and I am going to grad school, so I dont have time to fix a system that should have worked when I got it. the customer support is over email and only during business hours 9-5, times that I am not at my home computer. Even worse? the front side USB's broke. the plastic inside the USB slots was so shoddy they broke off in the USB plugs of the devise (on both slots). read more

They used to be good. No longer! I'm a three-peat customer but this is the last time I am purchasing from them. I purchased a $7,000 PC in December 2020. The build was delayed because of the Nvidia 3090 shortage. Okay. Understood. I finally got my rig in late January 2021. After a few weeks I was experiencing graphic anomalies. The POS PNY 3090 crashed. Why does my $7,000 PC have a PNY graphics card? It was replaced. All was fine. A few weeks later my CPU cooler fan started to rattle bad. Click...click...click. They sent me a replacement CPU cooler fan assembly. Here I am with a $7,000 computer replacing a 3090 graphics card and now a CPU cooler fan assembly. WFT! The CPU cooler fan assembly was not an easy task to complete. Never again Digital Storm! The Silverstone power supply revs up during any interaction. I open a Window and the power supply revs up! I open Outlook and the power supply revs up! This is BS! Digital Storm you are dead me. Why is the CEO in India? GTFOOH! read more

This fall, we ordered a custom Digital Storm PC at a cost in excess of $8,000.00. And for what we got, I was amazed at how low the price was. Please remember to factor in Shipping & taxes (9.5% here in California). I contacted customer support to ensure that I would be getting the proper SLI bridge I wanted and was handed over to John. He was extremely helpful, and even knew of a specialist who had previous experience with the specific questions I needed answered. After some dedicated troubleshooting regarding which power supply I should get for the workstation, John kept me informed every step of the way. Together, the team over at Digital Storm worked in lock-step to provide amazing service. They seem like a family and are able to lend each other the support needed to tackle any issue. I have been so pleased with the level of support and quality that I insisted on speaking with Jericho, who I found out heads up part of the great team there. I personally gave him my praises for people like John, Zachary Mitchell and Charles Priovolos who were so knowledgeable and down to earth. I was incredibly satisfied with the level of customer support I received and would highly recommend Digital Storm to anyone needing high-quality affordable and scalable workstations. John showed exceptional skills and quickly got things going for us. He's a miracle worker! read more

I've purchased the Syndicate and Bolt from this company. Very stable machines. They even sent pictures of my custom Syndicate as it was being built. Upon receiving my Syndicate I noticed that my 2 hard drives were not set up in Raid 0. I received a detailed, hand written email with pictures on how to do this. The DS forum is a also a great resource to find tech support. If you live close to DS, I highly recommend driving to their facility to pick up your machine. I've heard of several customers receiving damaged computers due to mishandling during the shipping process (I forgot who ships their machines). read more

Ugh!!! Why didn't I read the reviews before ordering? I ordered my sons computer on 10/29th to give it ample time to get here before Christmas. Being a single mom this almost $3000 computer is a huge splurge for me. My order has been stuck is phase 4 since 11/13 I call up last week only to be told (like others on here) that they are waiting on a part and if I don't move to phase 5 this week (it didn't) there is no way I will receive it by Christmas I am so upset because of the price this is the only item my kid was getting now Christmas morning he will have nothing but a stocking!!! Digital storm needs to change the way they do ordering. The deciding factor for choosing them over others was they didn't say "back ordered" for the graphics card only to find out it is. They were even more expensive but It allowed me to order it without indicating a back order so I went with them. Shame on you! Based on the reviews and your 3pt rating this is not news to you. Be more upfront with your timeframes and part availability! Although it is too late for me and my son be aware when ordering read more

I ordered my PC on 3/21/2020 and my credit card was charged on 3/23/2020. Due to the coronavirus, I ran into financial issues and called on 3/31 9:15 AM time frame to cancel the order. I spoke to Andrew if I am not mistaken and said that they will cancel the order and haven't started on even picking the parts. I received a a call 4-6 hours later back from him stating that they will charge 4.9% of my fee which is around $186 for the cancellation because of payments setup. It's pretty frustrating that they would charge your credit card before even pick the parts and mention no part of this fee inside the ordering e-mail or even on the phone. I had to look it up to find out the fee but $186 is quite a lot I can use especially during this tough time. I was hoping to come back in the future when all this virus is over with a steady income but due to this reason I don't see why I would even come back. I have been eyeing this company for a build for about 3 years now and that change within minutes of that 4.9% charge for cancellation. I hope everyone is safe out there during this time and please avoid places like this that charges you for a arm and a leg for a transaction. read more

Customer service was helpful besides one person i did not catch his name but he had an accent. Computer building time went as estimated but the shipping process was horrid.

(PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING A HIGH END PC) I purchased a Digital Storm PC back in September 14th , Finally received it Mid-October just to see 100 Celsius on all cores of a 9900k on a 4400$ copper tube build. I spoke to tech support Brian Frazure he issued a shipping label on November 3rd last email I would ever receive from him. After a week goes by i was still getting billed thru GetBread which was very great at communication during all of this. They had to issue a refund ticket to digital storm since i was getting no response from tech support or digital storms management. Early December i was able to speak to a manager Ron and he seemed nice and informed me that they are moving warehouses and that was reason for delay of refund. He mentioned that i would probably have to pay interest on the first month bill from Bread and refund would be processed once pc has been tested. (Even though it had been at warehouse over 2 weeks at the time). Finally today at 12-18-19 Bread informs me a refund of $3,726.40 has been processed and that i owe $656.65 for a PC i had a week that only overheated during gaming. I contact Ron again he declines mentioning me having to pay just interest with bread. Which i was like fine but whats the issue with 656.65 owed. He said it was a restock fee of 15%. I was like how is this not a full refund it meets the criteria of a full refund. PC was returned within 30 days ,Defective, and all accessories returned. Then he say's that RMA could not duplicate overheating issue. I was like literally play any game longer then 45 minutes and it will reach max temp on all cores and underclock and stutter. He said they could not duplicate with there benchmark test. So basically at this point even with screen shots and friends over witnessing the overheating, it magically fixed itself on shipping.So instead of calling or even emailing me before processing refund to inform me that they found no problem's with PC and giving me option to keep it and test it myself instead they go ahead with a standard refund and restocking fee 656.65$ before letting me know that the full refund is being declined and giving me Valid Proof or a chance to see if they are lying about even checking it myself. I have purchased many pc's over the years from Xidax , Cyberpower even Alienware have all been great... Especially Xidax, Wonderful customer support and team. Digital Storm has such lack of communication and blatant disregard to helping me navigate thru this mess, its almost kinda amazing that they are still in business. Every step of the way has been a battle and still is. I will update as the this is still a on going issue to get the other 656.65$ refunded. read more

A while back in November 2018 I purchased a lumos from DS and it took for ever for it to get to me. I got the computer on January 4th and i was impressed fast, better graphics, I could actually play my games without lag. All was going well until 10 days later when the power supply went bad. I called got some help from a lady named Cindy had me do the paperclip test when that failed she went through with me on the return policy. It took about a week for me to receive the return re-label address. During that week I'd thought I'd call and get a better power source instead of the one I had it was the (600W Digital Storm Performance Series) and i upgraded it to the (750W Corsair RM750x). I still have yet to receive my computer back that they received it on January 28th. I had my hopes up when on the Jan. 30th I receive 4 emails at once sating it cleared stages 2-5 within 1 minute. I would have loved this company but, its to far gone for me I'll leave an update on here when I receive my computer. Until then Auf Wiedersehen. read more

DO NOT PLACE ORDERS FROM THIS COMPANY UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND AND MAKE UP YOUR MIND FOR THE FOLLOWING - Cancellation on orders already charged carries a 4.9% credit card processing cancellation fee. If an order has already been built in our facility (entered Stage 4) but has not been shipped, there will be an additional 15% restocking fee which covers expenses for taking the system apart and re-stocking the hardware. THIS INFORMATION IS BURRIED INSIDE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. read more

Got a Vanquish II Ultimate about 1.5 weeks ago. I was very impressed with how it was shipped. I have not had any issues with the PC and already beat Crysis 3 and Dead Space 3 on it with no issues. Excel calculations are performing wonderfully. It handles multitasking (having dozens of programs open at once) very well. I was impressed with the fact that they ship the machine with a professional binder of information including the original installation disks. Plus, the computer is by far the CLEANEST installation of Windows I have ever received from any computer dealer. No bloatware or crapware. Hallelujah on that one. I would give them 5 stars, but I haven't had the machine long enough to feel comfortable giving them that. I hope it maintains its stellar performance without future issues. I like the Vanquish II Ultimate because it comes with two hard drives: one solid state and the other a traditional SATA drive. This does wonders for boot up times and loading times. The computer boots in seconds, not minutes. The load time for video games is in seconds as well, not minutes. I haven't dealt with their customer support (which is a good sign I guess :) Also, I no longer have to use my Display Link to handle 3 monitors. This rig can handle 3 monitors on its own - so that's sschweet. I use the Edimax micro usb WIFI since this computer doesn't come with a WIFI card, but it works well with the Edimax. Just be sure to plug it into one of the USB 2.0 ports, not the USB 3.0 ports. Also, when I ordered it, I ordered it as is, I didn't request any special modifications to it. When I install video games, I am sure to install them on the larger SATA drive as I don't want to fill up my Solid State drive. read more

I am truly shocked to read all the negative reviews here at Yelp about Digital Storm. I can only speak for myself, but not only was the service absolutely impeccable, it exceeded every expectation I had. The shipping materials are quite high-end. This isn't the insane wooden crate-style shipping you see at some sites, but my PC was very well protected with around 8 inches of space from the edge of the unit to any side of the box where it was firmly wedged between two sheets of strong plastic wrap buffers that cradled it in mid-air. After placing my order and verifying my identity because I was shipping it to a different location than the billing address, I waited the requisite 72 hours for stress-testing and got my PC a few days later. I got one of the lower-end units, and it is STILL a beast. I sourced every part on PC Parts Picker, and it was still cheaper to buy it from Digital Domain even after shipping! This included 4 years of service plan, lifetime phone support, $150 in credit from nVidia, and a free copy of Watch_Dogs! This was an insane deal. This is easily the best computer I've ever owned, and I have recommended Digital Storm to everyone I know. I worked in retail for many, many years, and here's the number one thing I learned: The tiny minority of people who have problems (that are only natural through human error or when you're shipping electronics via FedEx and UPS where it's anyone's guess what happens to the packages in transit) are by far the most vocal. The vast, huge numbers of people who have perfect experiences often never say a word about it, especially on public sites such as Yelp! All I can tell you is that my experience was 100% perfect in every way, and after a couple weeks with this new machine, I could not be more impressed and satisfied. The Price Range indicator doesn't have a very useful function; Digital Storm offers very inexpensive and VERY expensive machines, but from what I've seen it's very much a competitive pricing model. So, I'll average it out and say "moderate." read more

I was out of line on this review. This company deserves more respect that their Yelp reviews would show. I'm impressed with their level of customer care, and I'm hopeful that they can look past my rudeness. To any potential customers, I have one piece of advice. Make sure you instruct that the case fans are installed into the motherboard, and not into the power supply. read more

EDITED 7/26: Even though a new employee answered the phone and told me he wasn't ready to take any calls (I misunderstood the context of his response), and even though the automated attendant hung up on me several times (it does so after about 30 minutes hold time!), I am going to recommend Digital Storm. Here's why: I got in touch with two members of management to express my dissatisfaction. They listened and they responded (via email). The original issue I had with payment not posting on my bank account was due to the third party go-between, Authorize.net. That company got approval for my debit card payment on 7/21 but held it until yesterday. I don't know if this is normal or not. At any rate, when you purchase a computer from Digital Storm, it is my opinion you are getting the best gaming PC for your budget. Other computer companies (big-name or otherwise) would have cost a minimum of $80 more than what I paid at Digital Storm. I basically got the gaming computer of my dreams; or at least what my dreams could afford. You may experience frustration with Digital Storm's automated attendant (phones) when you call to place your order, or to ask questions. Hopefully they will be updating their system, soon. At any rate... I will post an update once my PC arrives. EDITED 7/25: I have been working with members of management at Digital Storm. They have been helpful and responsive. However, the issues with customer service, hold times, and confusion with payment stand, in my opinion. The build on my PC is progressing in an acceptable manner. read more

Do not buy digital storm. Bought new computer, less than one year, screen color changes, 3 year warranty, kept making time for them to call and remote in, never called as scheduled, finally called today and not to remote in, said probably graphic card, want me to pay shipping and $240 on my credit card till they get card back. Do not buy off this company, out in cold if problem. Was told $240 dollars and was a hold till bad graphic card received and Shipping was $13.88 and the latest email says cost is over $800 and will be refunded. Shipping only $13.88 Now who is telling the correct info. Not willing to give my credit card info because as you can see varying information. If you read Mr. Jericho's response total contrast. Don't see Mr. Jericho saying money coming back. read more

I created a yelp account specifically to rate this company. Bottom line, stay far away. If you're tech savvy, build you're own. If you're not, pay a friend to assemble a rig or just go in a different direction. I bought my PC around 2015 and it was a problem from day one. The quoted delivery time was double what was expected. When I got it, the fan lasted maybe a year before it had to be replaced. Now there's a problem with the power supply, and I can say enough about how shoddily the products are made. Their customer service is alright but slow and undermanned. Their mark ups are high. And their products are awfully built. I dropped roughly 2000 dollars on one of these, and I regret every dollar. It's an awful company. Stay away. read more

Worst company I've ever dealt with they tell you just what you want to hear. They will straight up lie to your face then promised compensation for all their mistakes then when it comes down to it deny it and then just give you the big middle finger not to mention the computers the biggest piece of crap I've ever seen the damn thing I'm afraid he's going to catch my house on fire it overheat so much I can't believe they let something out of their facility this bad and if you ever have to deal customer service and you get key the customer service manager you might as well hang up it's in one ear out the other with him he just lies and lies and lies read more

Do not buy from them unless you like waiting and no customer service.
