@enternalmayham6073 I definitely understand investing a lot of money into something you’re hoping will last years. There is a certain expectation especially with experts building it for you. That is why I am hoping my issue can be easily resolved. I am hoping it is just user error, I will know once I receive a response back. I appreciate the support of my channel! EDIT the issue I was having was able to be resolved.

How long did it take for them to build your system? did they update you during the building process saying which stage they were on, or did just send you an email with a tracking number?

@KendraKjolseth Жыл бұрын

If my memory serves me right I believe it took about four weeks for them to build my system. I believe I say how long it took in the video. The company never updated me during the building process, they actually had problems with my order and never informed me about the situation. I reached out to the company myself regarding my order and that was when I found out their was an issue with my order after asking how the process was going. Which made my order take longer to arrive. An issue that could of been easily corrected if allowed to do so.

They only work business days and i ordered mine on a Wednesday and it got confirmed till monday yhe next week, after that 2 and a half weeks to build and currently in its way from CA all the way to the texas border, 3 day shipping. They just contacted you letting you know they took the money out and then give you a tracking number when its done.

@KendraKjolseth Жыл бұрын

Oh no! I have a personal rule when it comes to spending money. I only buy things I can pay for in full, I never finance because I don’t want debt. It took me a while to save up money for this computer and all of the accessories and equipment which I required. Build Redux is a hard company to get ahold of, I don’t recall getting any emails from them, I had to reach out to them myself to get updates on my computer.

the only thing I don't like is the place where they put the MasterLiquid, it's behind the other 3 fans, so what's the reason to put 3 fans in front?

@KendraKjolseth 4 ай бұрын

@KendraKjolseth 4 ай бұрын

@@hamiltonazon3055 No problems at all! The fans on my gpu don’t kick on very often. They barely need to unless if I’m playing a very intensive game. The airflow and temperatures of my components are maintained pretty well with the cooling options within my PC itself. Plus Build Redux has in my opinion one of the best PC cases for ventilation. The front, back and top of the case is all vented. Not to mention I’m pretty maxed out on fans.

Would you recommend this build?

@KendraKjolseth Жыл бұрын

It all depends on what you’re going to be doing with your pc. Editing videos, competitive gaming, casual gaming, school work, etcetera. I enjoy my build a lot though I noticed my computer does struggle doing very specific tasks. I will be making another updated review of this set up by this company in the future. For example I can game competitively with no problems but when It comes down to putting files and media onto my computer via usb the computer struggles and can sometimes crash. It also can become quite laggy when using editing software to edit videos. With the specs of this specific build it shouldn’t be having any issues at all. This is all my opinion though.

@KendraKjolseth Жыл бұрын

@@HelixTribuner This company does have a warranty for parts for their PC's. I cannot recall the exact warranty off the top of my head. Like any warranty for an item there are rules you have to follow so not to void the warranty and most things need to have something wrong with them for the company to fix them. For example, damage during shipping wouldn't fall under warranty because that would be the shipping company's fault. But if the company sent you a faulty GPU for example that is something that would be covered under their warranty I'd assume. I did read from doing my own research that if you need to send your computer back to the company for a part under warranty you have to pay to ship the PC back to them and most reviews I read said it took over four months for their computer to get fixed and sent back to them. Most reviews I read from people who did have to use the warranty to replace a part said their computer initially got delivered to them with a part that was faulty or the wrong part. But keep in mind this was a small amount of people from what I read. You would have to go onto their website and read the company's warranty because I bought my PC in 2022 and I'm sure there has been edits to their warranty guidelines since I purchased my PC. It really just depends on what you would need fixing.

How is it holding up still?

@KendraKjolseth Жыл бұрын

I love the PC, it is a beautiful machine. I have had a couple hiccups with the system but nothing too major. I believe I mention in the video the minor issues I’ve had with the computer so far. My biggest complaint is the way the company configured my fans. The only fix to this issue I’m assuming would be to re configure the fans myself which I’m sure would void the computers warranty. This was just my experience, I assume they build every PC a bit differently depending on a persons order. Something to research I suppose before deciding on a purchase. However, it is a big inconvenience for myself not being able to monitor my fans in the event that one of them malfunctions. Though with all that being said, I am happy with my PC at the end of the day.

I bought this PC almost a year ago so I’m sure there’s a ton of newer parts available for PC’s now that perform better then the current specs I have in my PC. As of now though my computer is perfect for my current needs.

@KendraKjolseth Жыл бұрын

Well before selecting the parts for my pre-built PC I did about eight months of research on each individual part and brand that I was interested in. I ended up going with AMD because from the research I did AMD seemed to have the best reviews. It's all about preference for each individual person but when it came to choosing the parts for my computer, I went with the parts that were the best bang for their buck with the best performance ratings and reviews. At the end of the day whether you choose Intel or AMD, they are both reputable brands in my opinion. Thank you for watching my video and good luck with your new computer!

It's all up to your personal preference honestly. I chose AMD because of all the positive reviews. I really wanted the Ryzen 9 but Build Redux was sold out of it, so I ended up getting the Ryzen 7 instead which is fine with me because from my research the 7 actually has better reviews than the 9.

Hey ken. Did you choose the better option or normal or good or best one? How much did you pay B4 tax? I'm trying get PC first time. Abit nervous I don't know if company is legit. 😅

@KendraKjolseth Жыл бұрын

Well for starters this company is definitely legit. There are many reviews you can watch about this company aside from mine. I would just take the sponsored videos with a grain of salt because sponsored videos in my opinion rarely give honest reviews because there is usually money, or some sort of contract involved in reviewing a sponsored product. There are honest reviews out there though. I can say I received a very well-built PC with great performance and great appearance both inside and out. When I purchased my PC, the website offered three options: Good, Better and Best. I initially clicked on the "Better" option but after all of my customizations and upgrades to particular parts I ended up with the "Best" option once purchasing. I cannot recall the price I paid before taxes but after taxes I paid 2,465 USD for the price of my computer and parts at the time. Taxes and shipping will vary depending on your location.

Whoever built my pc cut all the corners they could and did a horrible job. Pc was only good for about 2 months when all the problems started. Overheating, usb ports losing power, psu failing, m.2 failing, 450w power cable to a 4090, corrupted OS that was installed, lower fan stops spinning and starts making horrible sounds. Many more issues. 2 year warranty to replace with the same trash parts? And then pay for shipping due to their negligence and wait many months to get it back? With more trash parts and some lazy person who didn't pay attention when running quality control tests. Even the IO shield was not installed correctly blocking off the USB ports. My experience has been very bad with redux

@KendraKjolseth 8 ай бұрын

I am sorry to hear that was your experience with this company. I have heard the negative reviews, there’s a lot of them. I also have to say my experience with this brand wasn’t perfect either. I found myself frustrated with this company. However, after all the frustration and miscommunication I did still end up with a good working pc and that overall was the most important thing to me. I am going to be making a year update on this pc build soon. I too have USB port issues with my pc, out of all the problems you listed that is the only one I’ve also had. It’s more of an annoyance if anything. I do agree their policies and procedures need updating. Keep in mind they’re still quite a new company but for the price you’re paying for a pc from this company I do agree that there shouldn’t be any hiccups or excuses. You should consider making your own review of your experience.
