Forum Opinions and Experiences : Computer Shops Custom pc builders

Hello,
I've been looking for a Custom PC builder,that does custom paint jobs,as I'm looking to have my case,speakers,and keyboard painted in a specific color scheme.

I've tried Origin,and Smooth Creations,but I would start a dialog about details,then after a few emails,I wouldn't hear from them again,and I've been left sitting waiting for a response to a certain question I've ask...so I'm hoping to move to a company who I don't havta chase In order to spend my hard earned money with.

Thanks

Google airbrush artists and find one who will paint your stuff. I may have a link I can post later. Be prepared to bear your life savings.

Some artists have their own businesses and airbrush any designh you want on anything from motorcycles, cars, guitars, computers, etc. There is a guy on Tom's who paints custom cases. I'll see if I can find him and post a link. He's not as great as some of these artists.

I appreciate the suggestion here,but I'm attempting to get the PC Build,Paint Job etc.. all done in one shot.

You will need a P.C. tech with the ability to weild an airbrush pretty well. otherwise, painting a PC case, etc. is relatively easy with a little planning.

I am not sure who the good PC builders are, but I have discovered the hard way the Ascendtech.us us one of the bad ones. I’ve posted a lengthy rant on my blog detailing the poor quality parts and workmanship, and their having sold me a part they didn’t install: http://m1s.org/blog/?p=288

I know this is probably not a good thing to post, but having once built a PC with some painting and lights and stuff, I think it is really a waste of time and moneh. My next PC that I'm in the process of assembling is a simple balck case with no windows, no LEDs, and focused on quietness and cooling. Spending your good moneh on custom painting will affect the performace of your box, and the eye candy will probably be tucked in a corner or under a desk?

I agree with you 100% Karsten. I am all about function over form. Some people like to impress their friends with bling, but I only build computers to impress myself, and the only way to do that is with power power power.
