Honest and trustworthy…read more You know that feeling when you don't have a lot of knowledge and you're very happy the specialist knew they could take you through the ringer but didn't; due to being ethical and how happy you are at the end? That is the feeling I was left with after speaking with this establishment. Had an issue with my laptop's performance and was about to begin upgrading everything by deductive reasoning. Spoke with this business and they were VERY HONEST with me. We did some troubleshooting and they explained to me why it may be time to just consider replacing my laptop. They don't sell computers, they repair them. They definitely knew more than I could acquire through YouTube University so they could have easily taken my money, but they were honest and gave me options that would satisfy my goal but be cost effective as well. Great place, great company, highly recommend this place.

Hey everybody, I recently (about a month ago) bought this mid grade gaming rig off of these guys. I…read morewent in one day and told them I was for sure about it and came back a couple of days later for purchase. First day, It originally was $475, said Justin, for... Motherboard: Asrock Z97 extreme 4 gaming MB CPU: Intel core i5-4690K GPU: Nvidia GTX 970 4GB RAM: 16GB DDR3 1600Mhz (x2 8GB sticks) Corsair vengeance PSU: CX600M Hard Drives: x1 250GB SSD & x1 2TB HDD "Fresh reinstallation of windows 10" ... I was fine with that. I go back to purchase it and Justin installed an extra 16GB of memory for literally no reason, not requested nor was I told about it before hand, and they raise the price to $500. I accepted that because I was intending on streaming and upgrading so that much RAM was fine so I bought it from Josh (the other man working their) and asked if there was any bloatware or anything I should know about installed and he said no. I brought it home and there was so I cleared them all. So, I downloaded some games from Steam, Battlenet, Xbox App, and began to play. Now, my last rig had cooling issues with the side panel on so I usually had it off, but I left it on this rig because it has better cooling/more fans. It was all working fine at first then it crashed while I was playing COD War Zone so I switched games and that one crashed too... it said "unsuspected error" every time it crashed. I had used MSI afterburner to OC the GPU so I thought it was the GPU crashing from over heating, so I took the side panel off to provide more air to hopefully keep it cooler. The games continued to crash so I did a full fresh reset myself, cleaned the drives, and re-setup windows to my liking. I reinstalled all game clients I had before and games and they still crashed with the same error message coming after the screen went black. I called the man in charge, Justin, and requested a new layer of thermal paste for the GPU and CPU. He tells me I can't stay at the shop, but they'll stress test it and call me back. Justin calls me so I put the phone on speaker, and my girlfriend is with me listening, and he says that the games didn't crash once and temps never exceeded normal limits. He said, on the phone and in the shop, that they believed it was the CPU overheating, not the GPU, yet they did still reapply the thermal paste. I asked twice in the shop if they reapplied the thermal paste to both the CPU and GPU and they said they did. I bring my rig home to find my chords, GPU, and CPU still dusty with no prints or signs of being removed from their sockets. It crashed once more so I cleared CMOS and reset bios to default and now it works fine. I called today to talk about how he lied and he kept cutting me off and changing the story. My girlfriend and I both called him and Josh out for it and they denied it. They talked to me like I didn't know anything about computers when I've been using them since I was a kid. I'm not dumb and I'm not blind! Point of my post... they added to the product and raised the price on me without my knowledge. They gave me a surcharge of $15 for whatever reason. The tax was $51 and some cents. They lied about their services, they were disrespectful, and they denied lying. I don't recommend this place.

I set it down and told him it wouldn't turn on and explained what I tried. He told me his rate was $125 per 30 minutes and he wouldn't even touch it until I agreed. So he didn't know if he could even fix it let alone how long or if there would be added costs for the fix. He told me this was a "VERY fair rate". So this was WAY more than I expected to pay being an hour of work equated to over half the cost of my device. I then went to Micro Center down the road who could diagnose it for $80 flat and would help cover any costs of the fix. I went with Micro Center and they fix my computer and returned it 3 days later for $120 total. Now I think this business could've fixed my computer same day but I would've guessed at double the price and I didn't mind waiting. Overall I'm giving this a 2 because it seems expensive and telling me it was a fair rate seemed dishonest. The one employee wasn't overall very mean or anything but he came across as unwilling to help or answer any questions I had.

Jarret is an exceptional team manager and gets five stars. My laptop is happy, which means I am…read morehappy. A while back, I contacted Chipheads for a comparison quote on the replacement of a laptop keyboard and frame after a water spill fried a touchpad. The first place I had visited for a quote was a lovely one-man shop that quoted me $300 minimum for the repair - and that was with full awareness that I'd already purchased my own replacement parts and therefore all cost on his part was purely labor. He also communicated clearly that accessing the keyboard area required moving multiple parts he was not entirely familiar with and laughed that he would have to give me the $2000+ laptop he'd tried to sell me if the repair didn't go well. I left the establishment unconvinced of his capability to fix my also $2000+ design powerhouse that had not left my side since I got her. Enter Chipheads. I contacted via the general email address on the website, outlining the general situation and requesting a quote. Chipheads teammate Scott responded, and the quote he gave was comparable. I then emailed to confirm that I'd ordered the right parts before making the decision to put my laptop basically in the hospital right before I was going to be gone for a full two weeks, so I wouldn't be able to get her back even if the parts were wrong and repairs could not be done. Scott never responded to that email, and I had to leave for my out-of-town event. When I'm home, I rely on my laptop heavily, so dropping off when I'm not occupied with an event is not ideal. When another long event came up on my schedule, I contacted Chipheads again, this time creating a new email thread directing back to the general email address - the previous thread had directed to Scott's email address after we connected. I admit that I was hoping that I would connect with Jarret this time, and I did. He responded not only quickly but also giving me the option of a two-week repair period for less than $200. I'd be occupied with my event for exactly that amount of time anyway, so this was perfect. When I arrived the day before my event started, Jarret was with another guest. Both the impression that the first shop had given me about the delicate nature of my repair and my own experience in tinkering with laptops and electronics in general added to why I specifically waited to speak directly with Jarret given the impression of reliability he gave me in our correspondence. I dropped my laptop off with Jarret the day before my event started. Less than 48 hours later, he called to let me know that my laptop was ready for pickup. That was back in August. I specifically waited to ensure that the laptop was in perfect working order before leaving a review. It's now October. Safe to say, my laptop is in good health. Dropping one star for Scott dropping the ball on communication. Regardless, I'd wholeheartedly recommend Chipheads for your repair and upgrade needs.
