These guys are doing it right. Exactly what you hope for in a local business…read more I found DC through a Facebook group when I asked for computer repair rec's. Checked out their website, then gave them a call about cleaning up my Mac before my vacation. I put it off to the last minute and wasn't sure they could help. Luckily, they could help me, and the rush fee was $100. I love that fact they picked up the phone and it wasn't some dead doornail employee who could care less about my computer issue. Chris, the owner, actually answered the phone. He said to bring it down. I came in that same day and he told me they would: clean it up, install new OS, remove junk, and speed it up overall. He quoted me end of the week, but it was ready sooner, so happy about because it would be ready for vacation. Total came out to about $430 with the rush fee. It's been about 6 weeks now and my computer is running amazing, so fast! They also have refurbished Macs for sale, which I'll be back for when my current computer stops working. Super 5 Stars for DC Computers! They care about their business and customers. So glad I found them.

Cesar gave me a call and advised me the diagnostic cost was not worth the used selling price of the RAM. He reminded me it is a single stick, and needs a matched pair to run most efficiently. It would be a hard sale even with a RAM shortage going on. Instead he told me how I could do a full reset of the motherboard to try and verify the RAM myself. Cesar, I appreciate you, and you did not have to give me the extra help, but you did! I will definitely come to you first if I have another problem!

They offered a package deal, which wasn't what we needed -- we were looking for something more on-call and flexible. They seemed open to accommodating that, which was reassuring.

These guys are solid. They always come through in a pinch. 85 characters of goodness for these guys!read more

This place has amazing customer service. I called in because my water cooler on my computer had…read morebroken. On the phone call they told me to bring it In and they would check it out. Spoke to Nathan Hourani, who I believe is the manager and co-owner. He gave me an extremely honest take. Gave me his opinion and didn't try to over sell me on anything. This is a legit brick and mortar PC store.... Which you don't see anymore. RIP Fry's. The other employees were also very helpful. After they installed my new cooler and did some BIOS updates, they let me sit down right next to them and check it out. This seems like an awesome family run business. Kudos again to Nathan and the employees. Will recommend to all my friends and come back here for any PC needs.

It has been 6 years since Shannon built my pre-pandemic PC and it has run great all of this time…read moreexcept for a gradually worsening reboot time (which I could deal with) -- unfortunately I had a little hard drive glitch a couple weeks back which made me realize my PC was on borrowed time, so I knew it was time to pay a visit to Shannon and SD Bytes. Rather than upselling me on a brand-new and pricey rebuild, Shannon cloned all of my data over from my current hard drive, put it on a new hard drive, and upgraded me to Windows 11. And through sheer determination, Shannon also fixed my reboot time -- it went from 2.5 hours down to under a minute. This was without a doubt a hugely time-consuming and frustrating process, but Shannon and his team went above and beyond to diagnose and repair it. I absolutely recommend Shannon and SD Bytes if you need a repair or an upgrade or a rebuild or something brand new. You won't find a more competent and honest team in San Diego!

The guy was super nice and charged me $100 for the replacement. (The part is less than $5 online but I don't have the know-how to do it myself, so I paid.) He said it would be an hour and it was almost exactly that. I primarily play in handheld but after a few days I decided to dock my switch to my tv, only to find out it didn't work. I tried a few different options. Both of my TVs, both docks, even my nitro deck that has its own HDMI out port, but it's definitely broken. I sent him a message and it's been well over a week, so I'm assuming I gotta just deal with having a giant switch lite now. Thanks goat tech. TLDR; go somewhere else unless you want more problems with your device post-repair.
