I reached out to Ruben for gaming PC troubleshooting and repair services when I couldn't figure out what was wrong with my brother's rig. Ruben provided exceptional service from start to finish. He's knowledgeable, honest, and incredibly detail-oriented. What really sets him apart is how much he cares about making sure the system is running at its absolute best, he'll even point out potential issues you didn't know were there just to ensure everything is rock-solid. He maintained clear communication throughout the process, walked me through the exact solution, and charged a very fair price. I'll definitely be back for any future repairs! read more

Ruben is amazing! I've needed his help a few times, always great about fitting me in, and repairing my laptop quickly. His pricing is very good and he takes the time to explain exactly what was done. Very happy with his service! read more

Ruben was awesome!! Restored not one but FOUR failed hard drives. Was super sweet and nice to chat with and also reasonably priced. 10/10

I have used 4Pc Techs in the past and am so glad that Ruben is in business. I just referred another friend and they raved about him. One important thing you get is education. I was causing my own issue and Ruben took the time to walk me through how I could avoid this in the future ( with my VPN) and that completely resolved the issue. read more

Fried my SSD drive by being stupid and thought I lost 20+ years of family photos. Ruben was up front with my chances of data recovery, cost and time. He told me what he was going to do and in the end was successful in recovering all my data. Thank you so much Ruben for helping me get my memories back! read more

Ruben is one of those hard to find shops these days - he's honest, fair, transparent, communicative, and kind! I first went to him for a hard drive recovery issue - I was taken aback with easy he made things! Came back with an issue on a small pc build. Ruben kept in contact and appraised me of everything going on and what was needed - and in the end, charged a very fair price. Will 100% goto him for any and all PC issues from now on and I recommend others to do the same! read more

My son's computer crashed. Contacted Ruben at PcTechs on a Friday, described my situation. Had my son's computer up and running by Wednesday. Great service. Price was great. Very knowledgeable. Ruben was very honest and listened to my problem. Then he explained what he was going to do no hidden surprises. Will go back for any future computer needs. Thank You Ruben. My son is very happy.

Ruben from 4PcTechs is extremely professional and knowledgeable at repairing computers. I had trouble with my LapTop. Took it to Ruben and he fixed it and even came to my home to check and make certain that my printer and LapTop were working well. I then needed a new keyboard and called Ruben. He ordered the keyboard, called me when it arrived and replaced it within a couple of hours. I highly recomment Ruben for computer repairs because of his expertise, honesty, fairness and reliability. Ruben YOU ROCK! read more

I am so happy that a friend of mine recommended Ruben of 4PCTechs. He is very professional and trust worthy. He upgraded my Mac Book Air which is around 10 years old. He picked up the computer and returned it to me within a couple of days. I now have at least another 5 years of use and it is much appreciated. I recommend him highly to anyone that needs work on their computer of any kind. read more

I needed to get the GPU fan replaced in my gaming laptop, so thanks to my roommate, she recommended I go see Ruben at 4PCTechs. And boy, that was the best recommendation ever! Ruben was everything you could ever wish from a computer repair specialist -- caring, incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, thorough, and sincere. He would keep me updated every so often with little videos of how the repairs were going. In addition, Ruben cares not only about taking care of the repair at hand, but he also excels in observing how the other components of the computer are functioning. He wants to make sure that he's giving you back a computer that is at its absolute best. And without a doubt, my laptop feels like its back in its most tip-top shape, from when I first got it back in 2018! I will absolutely be going back to Ruben for all of my computer repairs going forward. If you have any computer issues, I highly recommend that you reach out to him/4PCTechs. Your computer will be in good hands. read more

My parents and I are extremely happy with Ruben's expertise. He is professional and caring to details. This is my second time for his services once, for my dj-ing laptop SSD cloning and then, now recently our gaming PC desktop. I referred him to a friend for networking, installation of a wired mesh router. #tyvm read more

Wow! What a great computer technician. I can't say enough good things about Ruben. He is so intelligent and great at his craft. Very personable, kind, and responsive person. A true Profesional. I had a major issue with my PC. I am a first time customer. I called him and he scheduled an appointment right away. I dropped the computer off to him. Then he kept me updated throughout the entire process. Constantly updating me via text and email. He repaired the computer and was able to transfer all of my data from my original hard drive. Took care of all of the windows back ups. I just turned on my PC and it's running better than when I originally bought it 6 years ago. Amazing!!! Ruben is a wizard. I seriously can't believe how fast this thing is running right now. It's unbelievable. Thank you so much Ruben for your fast work and excellent service. I will be coming back to upgrade my mother board and processor 1000% You're amazing!!! read more

I have a MSI GS75 stealth 9sf laptop, about 3 years old, that was basically falling apart due to me leaving the heavy screen up and open for the the whole 3 years, when I would close the screen, I would close it from the right top corner, adding weight to the right side of screen, causing the hinges and bracket on the right side to fall apart. I had to use electrical tape, to tape my screen to the base of laptop, to keep it from falling apart. I have over $1,000 in music software and tons of files, that I didn't want to lose, also I left laptop plugged into charger nonstop, causing the battery to go bad (internal battery, so I couldn't just buy a new one and replace. I called multiple repair companies, and they didn't want to work on my MSI. When I called 4PcTechs Inc, he told me to bring it in, he diagnosed the issue right away, ordered the parts, and within 10 days, he received the parts, I dropped my laptop back off on a Friday afternoon at 3pm, and he called me the next day on a Saturday around noon and was done. Great work, great prices, great customer service. Highly recommended. read more

I needed a laptop fixed because the user was locked out. Ruben installed the new operating system and also managed to save the data. Service was fast and he kept me informed about what was happening and when it would be ready. I would use 4PcTechs again when I need to! Thank you, Ruben. read more

We had a laptop that wouldn't turn on or hold a charge. After reading 4PcTechs glowing reviews, we asked Ruben for his expertise and I'm so glad we did. Like mechanics, if you find one that is helpful, fair and kind, you're a customer for life. Ruben went above and beyond to assess what the problem was and offered a series of solutions on how to move forward. He also went the extra mile and helped us secure our HD so our data won't get in the wrong hands. If you want an honest review of what's going on with your tech, walk -- NO RUN -- to 4PcTechs now. There are a couple of tech repair businesses in this area, but I have no doubt that none of them can hold a candle to Ruben's professionalism and fair rates! read more

Took my PC here after my desktop turned off in the middle of a video game and wouldn't reboot any system. Ruben was nice enough to see me same day when it happened and got back to me in a timely manner when he discovered my hard drives had been fried. Ruben takes his time to explain possible options and solutions. And walks your through the repair process so you know and understand what is going on with your desktop and information. I also asked him to try and recover some pictures I kept on my hard drives and he was able to get back a majority of my pictures!! I'm happy with my experience and if I have any other issues with my PC I'm definitely going back to him first!! read more

My hard drive died but even after replacing it, the darn thing would not resuscitate. Reuben brought it back in one day! Great expertise, service and price. Reuben leads my Geek Squad. ;) read more

My laptop would not power on. Called 4PcTechs and Ruben repaired it within a week's time at an affordable price. I highly recommend Ruben, he is very knowledgeable technician. read more

Ruben is a really great guy, fixed my pc twice, once for changing the motherboard and upgrading system and once for changing cpu cooler. Know what he's doing and done a fantastic job, definitely worth the price and recommend for anyone that have pc problems around the area:) read more

Ruben is a whiz! I called him and asked if I could bring my PC in. I was doing a great rebuild, and as a novice, could not figure out why I wasn't getting video or power. He invited me into his home and within fifteen minutes he figured out my problem, told me what power supply I should get to resolve it and showed me that otherwise my build went off without a hitch. He put my fears at ease and showed me my pc was able to turn on! Which I was worried about. I went to 5 other shops before this one. Northridge Fix tried to charge me 5 times what Ruben did in less than fifteen minutes. Watt computer repair, nobody even came to the desk to help me. Everyone else was closed! This was a Monday at 1 pm! Ruben is the best. Give him your business first. read more

Reuban was very helpful for some Windows issues I was having that I could not figure out myself. I am pretty Computer savvy but this issue was beyond me. Reuban told me how it was going to be. He let me know everything upfront, which actually scared me because I thought it was going to be quite expensive. Decided to go with him anyway. He ended up solving the problem within 24 hours. And even did some extra small work inside my computer at no additional charge. Great service. Great communication. Highly recommend. read more

Ruben is the village PC wizard. He knows computers in and out. I am a PC gamer and have a basic knowledge of hardware/software. With that said I wanted to upgrade from an old Nvidia GPU to a newer AMD GPU. Everything had gone smooth on my end until I tried updating the drivers. Screen went blank and I attempted to navigate through the BIOS to try and fix the problem. I tried troubleshooting my problem but I made the problem worse instead. I went to Ruben and had a consultation/quote. Within an almost precise 24 hours later he had my computer up and running again. Not only did he fix my initial problem but put measures to avoid future problems. He went the extra mile. He fixed/updated the drivers, created a recovery point, gave me access to an additional some odd GB of Hard Drive space since it was partitioned, AND managed to find the original key of my Windows OS. Plus his dog Tobi is super sweet and Ruben has a wealth of knowledge that he willingly shared. Give the man a try. read more

I had an SSD issue, and my gf recommended I go here because she got her hard drive fixed relatively cheap and fast. He took $100 off the initial price and had it back to me sooner than expected. Was able to get the SSD working and backed up onto a separate drive. I'm grateful because otherwise I would've lost all of my work. read more

Went to diagnose my computer and found out that SSD was broken. He let me order a new SSD to his place for a replacement and helped me through the installation process. Whole process was extremely quick and helpful. Would definitely come back for future computer issues. read more

Super nice guys. Was freaking out because my computer wasn't working and couldn't do any work. He took 30 minutes to look at it and then it started working. He also let me know what it needed. Much appreciated. read more

I can not recommend this company enough. I recently had the hard drive go out on my work laptop. I work remotely and my company has no IT department to speak of so I told our CEO that I would get it taken care of locally. I found Reuben and his company 4PCTechs through a referral at one of those "we fix your hard drive for xxx.xx amount" places because I didn't think it was totally shot. He opened it up ran some scans and told me that they data was there, I ran home to grab my external hard drive to transfer the data and returned with it. He transferred the data and we made plans for him to transfer my old data to a new PC hard drive and change my battery (which is also failing) by mid week for $325. I returned home and spoke with my CEO who changed his mind and wanted me to send my machine to the home office for repairs instead. Even though Reuben had already started working on it I had to make the phone call to tell him my situation. He was understanding even though I felt terrible as I had wasted an hour of his time. Long story short he did work and didn't charge me because of my situation. I even offered to pay him out of my own pocket for his time but he refused. He is a stand up guy and the only person in the valley I would take my computers too in the future. He has a lifelong customer here. Please reach out to him with any PC or Mac needs. read more

I called Ruben to get a rough estimate on the repair of my son's gaming laptop. Ruben explained possible scenarios, provided a reasonable rough estimate, and I was able to take the laptop over the same day. After diagnosing the issue, he communicated promptly and gave an estimate of how long parts would take to come in. He received the parts and finished the repair sooner than originally estimated at a fair price. On top of all that, he's informative and friendly. I highly recommend him. read more

Unfortunately had a mishap and damaged my motherboard. Ruben was knowledge, respectful, and fast in his service. He saved my pc, and at a price that was cheaper than other quotes I was given. read more

I needed some extra hard drives installed into my newly built computer and needed some data from the boot drive from my old computer. I called Ruben and he said to bring the computer over and he installed the drives and was able to transfer the data I needed from the old boot drive to a portable drive. He said the old drive (12 years old) was about to die, so I was grateful that he was able to get the data I needed before it was inaccessible. He completed the tasks the same day and I was able to pick the computer up and take it home that afternoon. I highly recommend Ruben to anyone who has a computer problem. I have already told a friend of ours who has a problem with his computer to give 4PcTechs a call and take it to him to fix. If I have any more computer problems that need solving, I will definitely go to 4PcTechs. read more

This gentleman restored data on a hard-drive that was over 15years old without any successful repairs. He made the impossible possible. He gave me some of my most important memories back. Charged significantly less than all his competition. If the need arises he is first on my mind. Definitely recommend his services and his professional business. read more

Was a pleasure working with Ruben. We have a really old Mac Mini in our jukebox that needed to be updated and he went above and beyond to help us out. He explained everything thoroughly and was very responsive. I would recommend 4PcTechs to anyone looking for a trustworthy computer repair service. read more

Ruben is honest, friendly, and knowledgeable. He was able to help me diagnose and fix my gaming pc quite fast and for a reasonable rate. I hope don't need repairs in the future but if I do I will definitely return! read more

Ruben was very helpful and responsive. The hard drive in my PC had crashed and Ruben replaced it at a very reasonable price and was able to recover data from the old drive that I needed.

Very happy I chose this place (4PcTechs) for my windows desktop repair. Ruben was very friendly, professional, and efficient! He was able to diagnose and fix the problem very quickly! The charge was more than fair and I would not hesitate to recommend Ruben to anyone with a technical equipment problem! read more

Ruben is great at his job. About a month ago our work computer want turning on and was running super slow. We've had it for about 10 years and it still had windows xp. We found Ruben and he changed the power supply. It was all running slow, but it was because we needed to update and put in a new hard drive and he added ram also. He did some other stuff which I don't know how to explain, but now computer is like brand new. If you have computer issues contact Ruben. He gave us a very reasonable price and did not good, but great work. read more

Brought my laptop for a screen repair, Ruben order a new screen replaced it In a timely manner, he also helped me with A few technical problems and updated my Format. I'm pleased with the work he did And his pricing, plus his very thorough with explaining problem and how to go about with Your technical issues. I'm satisfied with his work and prizing. Thank you Ruben. read more

Rubin is very trustworthy and honest! I had an issue with my laptop and he was thorough with his repair process every step of the way. Unfortunately the mother board was too expensive but he didn't even charge me for figuring out what the issue was. Highly recommend. read more

Ruben is AMAZING! My boyfriend's old MacBook screen had cracked off, essentially breaking the computer in half. I took the laptop to a few places for evaluation and quotes before I decided on Ruben. He is an expert and was honest and communicative. He explained everything that needed to be done in a way anyone would be able to understand, answered all my questions, and was available at all times of day (I literally texted him at 9pm and 7:30am on a few occasions, and he was quick to get back to me every time.) He placed an order for 2/3 of the parts that were broken, confident that he could fix the third part by hand. The parts were an expensive investment for him, but he didn't even have me place a deposit or ask for any payment before they arrived. His quote for the work was accurate though, so I knew how much I would be expected to pay for the repair once it was finished. Once the parts arrived, he told me it would take a few days to fix, but he texted me that night to tell me it was ready. My boyfriend is and works for high profile clients, so there was some concern regarding giving up the password to the main account on the computer, which Ruben totally understood and worked with us on. All in all, I am so happy that I went with Ruben for the repair, and so is my boyfriend. Finding the right computer repair person is just as stressful and scary as finding the right mechanic. If either of us ever have any repairs to be made in the future, I know who I'm going to. Ruben is my repair guy for life. read more

I made a tragic mistake and deleted a folder containing all of our raw wedding videos. In a panic, I immediately bought a software online to recover the files that I've lost. Not knowing anything about data recovery, I saved the recovered files on the same external hard drive which is apparently a big no no. I then tried to open the recovered videos and only a few of the short clips would play. Not the important ones that I was hoping to get recovered. Frustrated, I sent a message to multiple data recovery companies on yelp at 5 am. Ruben was one of the first ones who responded. He was very accommodating and offered to help that same morning. He was very knowledgeable about computers and educated me on what to do when it happens. I know I would never make the same mistake again. He genuinely wants to help and for someone who was frustrated and had no sleep, I was assured that I left it on the right hands. He took his time and made sure I was updated on all the things he did to save my files. Unfortunately, I made mistakes that totally corrupted the files. I came to pick up the hard drive and asked him how much I owe. He looked at me and told me that there was NO CHARGE. I was surprised! For the amount of time he spent, I was worried I'll get charged a lot! Some companies quoted me $300 here at yelp without even looking at it. Although my files weren't saved. I am still very much pleased with this company. It is very rare these days to find a company that would help you first. Most of them charge a fee regardless. Thank you Ruben! read more

I am tardy about leaving this review, but Reuben is the best. I have a merge footprint house with lots of brick and old lath and plaster or wood walls. It was hard to get wireless reception to all locations. We hired Reuben to spec out a system and make it work. The Orbi system he got, with its satellites covers 8,000 sq ft and not only covers all area of the house but also by our pool and in my garage and tack room. Not only was he originally very responsive but when I had a question the next day he returned without compensation with an hour to clear up my issue. Reuben really understand custom service and certainly knows his stuff. Joe M. read more
