Took my computer in for a bad hard drive. Thank goodness I found them. I literately got into my car and was on my way to Best Buy but found elite computers on yelp. They are very knowledgeable and honest. I couldn't be happier that they were able to replace the hard drive and get my computer up and running. I was hoping that I my computer still had life so I wouldn't have to spend $$$ on a new one. read more

Joe and his team of technicians were an absolute pleasure to work with. After my computer stopped working with the dreaded and ambiguous "No Display" issue, I contacted a slew of computer shops near me. After reading the plentiful five-star reviews, I decided to give them a shot despite the 15 or so mile drive. I dropped my computer off and paid for the Emergency Service. After him and his team determined that it was either a motherboard or CPU issue. I was suggested the necessary parts, went out and got them and dropped them off at his shop. They then assembled and mounted all my old equipment onto the new motherboard. Despite my constant pestering and questions, Joe and his team, particularly Nathan were curtious and patient enough with me and my wonky pre-built. I really appreciate the entire crew there at Elite Computers and I will definitely pay them another visit if I had another computer emergency. Thank you guys. read more

My husband's Apple laptop would not recognize his IPhone. Elite Computer saved the day by showing him what needed to be done. Plus they did not charge my husband for their assistance! We highly recommend Elite Computers! read more

Very informative team. Honest and dependable. Took my setup in because my CPU was over heating. Had a feeling it was the AIO, but wasn't sure. Even informed me that fan/air cooling heatsink is actually superior to water due to flux in temps. They even dusted out my machine before returning it to me. 10/10. read more

Great costumer service, when Joe was diagnosing my computer problems he explained everything to me clearly and gave me time to think through my financial options. His costumer service through the experience made the process of getting my laptop fixed frictionless. read more

Thank you Joe ! My iMac got a little virus and when I say little, I tried to solve the problem by watching youtubes to see if I could correct it. After 5+ wasted YouTube hours, I decided to bring it in and Joe helped out immediately by doing a quick check. I had to leave it for 48 hours, but when I got it back, he cleaned up the internal mess and my iMac is running smooth. He called exactly 2 days later to say it was ready for pick up and I could not be more grateful. I love that they are local and honest and quick. Thank you sooooooooo much Joe, you are a mac saver. read more

Joe and his team did a fantastic job restoring my computer after it got a virus. They were kind, knowledgeable and I will go back when I decide to get a new computer. read more

Took a refurbished PC to inspect an issue I was having when trying to power it on. They immediately found the issue (stick of ram was not inserted properly) and were kind enough to explain how some of the components work. Gave me advice on updating and offered, without pressuring me, to have them do the updating for a very reasonable fee and timeframe. I declined but was very satisfied with the level of expertise and friendliness of their staff. I would highly recommend coming here! read more

I was in need of a little computer repair. It was a terrible time to learn that my usual place, Best Deal Computer on Broadway in Chula Vista, had gone out of business. It was a great place run by fantastic people. Against my better judgement, I searched Yelp for a computer repair business. It's difficult to know which companies bought their 5 star reviews. I decided to take a chance and I contacted Elite Computers because of their location, the fact that they answered the phone, they were open, and lastly, they had a 5 star review. Nathan, the manager, was friendly and professional. They got me in and out that same day at what I considered a very fair price. So, great service at a fair price deserves a 5-star review in my book. I'll definitely be back. read more

Thanks Nathan for all your help and expertise! Good job on helping me navigate through the computer glitches. You are appreciated! Thanks!

running way slower than before. suspicion my PC was swapwd by an "identical" looking model. it's older and missing parts. read more

I like coming her to get advice for our computers. Nathan is so nice knowledgeable and doesn't try to sell you on anything you don't need. read more

This is by far the best computer repair store I have been to, so good in fact that I'm leaving my first yelp review! Took them less than a day to fully fix the issue I had with my computer as well as install parts I had AND deep clean my tower. Could not recommend this place enough, customer service was also fantastic! Apparently they were in a different location 6 months ago so if you didn't know they moved now you do! read more

I'm so glad to have found this place on Yelp. I don't need them often (fortunately) but when I do, they are always helpful, quick, and the prices are reasonable. I've taken a desktop and 2 laptops over the years for repairs, very pleased with the results. read more

I created a yelp account to give this place a review, it's that good. I had purchased(and exchanged) a pre-built "gaming PC" from a big box retailer nearby and was having issue after issue with it, and just decided to search on yelp "computers near me". I live in Eastlake, and luckily for me Joe's business was extremely close in proximity and it certainly stuck out with the reviews. In less than 5 minutes on the phone with Joe I knew this was the place for me. I gave him a run down of the issues I was having and he diagnosed the problem with ease: the term pre-built "gaming pc" is nothing more than a marketing ploy to convince folks they're getting a good product, and my recent experience gave me first hand knowledge that he was indeed right. Over the course of our ten minute conversation on the phone, It was obvious that Joe sold top of the line products, but his emphasis for his business was on customer service. Customer service is something I, like most, value more than whatever part you put into my rig. I made my way into Joe's store and was instantly transported back into the 90's (the peak of civilization if you ask me). Beige and cream CRT monitors sit atop his counters, a television behind the counter has a loop of the history of the store showing multiple photos from decades past further driving home how long he's been in business and just how proud of the business he is. Again, overflowing brownie points in the customer service box. Joe and I talked at length about what I needed for my gaming pc's build. He went into great detail to dispel some of the rumors I had heard about graphics cards, processors. He wanted to make sure I had EXACTLY what I needed, without overpaying for something I'd never need. He broke things down into layman terms to make sure that I fully understood what I needed, because let me tell you, I was dead-set on a 3080-ti graphics card for ALL of the wrong reasons. His emphasis wasn't on making money in this transaction, which is RARE in todays world. He wanted to sell me happiness in the form of a computer, and he wanted me to have that at an affordable price. Joe followed up with me 3 days later giving me an update on the build and let me know that one of the parts on our list was traveling from the East Coast and that it was taking a bit longer than expected, but provided me with a timeframe as to which I could expect my computer with all things considered. He had my money already, he didn't have to do that, but that one act is the reason I've created this account and decided to share my experience so far with Yelp. Joe is such a kind soul and he cares deeply for what it is that he does, and the customers he's doing it for. read more

I was printing labels and the paper jammed. I pulled the paper out and it was still showing a message of paper jam in tray 1. I couldn't find anything, but when I looked at the label paper I noticed one label was missing. I took everything apart that came apart and couldn't find the label. I took the printer (a large one, BTW) to Elite. Unfortunately, they said they don't fix printers anymore and gave me the name of a repair depot that focuses on printer. Before I left, they said to take the tone tray out and flip the printer over because there was an area only visible from the bottom of the printer that might be where the label got stuck. When I went back out to the car, I turned the printer over and from there I could just see the label. Removed it, when home, reassembled the printer and it worked. They always try to help. read more

This place saved my computer, I had YouTubed for hours on how to fix it but had no luck. They are experts and work fast!

Great place for advice or system upgrades. I brought my old gaming PC in to see if there's anything that could be done to get it back up to speed or if I should just upgrade entirely. Nathan didn't try to sell me on anything and instead thoroughly educated me on my system and the current market. His advice was great and I learned a lot about my options. Not much could be done for my original PC so I built one instead. Gpu market is extremely overpriced so he advised me to wait if I wanted a better deal and I think Elite Computers actually has a client list they notify if gpu's become available to them. All in all this place is legit. I could have built my own PC and been happy but they are so much more experienced than the average tech-savvy person that it is absolutely worth paying for their services. My wire management would never look as good as theirs nor would I be able to accumulate the same build components anywhere near as fast as them. Best thing about this place is their advice. They educate the customer as well as deliver a quality product. Building trust and respect read more

I was having a wi-fi issue with my laptop and reached out to Elite Computers via Yelp- they were extremely fast with their reply. I then decided to bring it into the store and the person at the front was super helpful. Instead of trying to sell me a repair right off the bat, he suggested an in-store product to me that would be a fraction of the repair price and also a long-term solution. The entire store visit was less than 10 minutes and the issue is fixed! I would 100% recommend Elite Computers! read more

I met Joe the owner of Elite Computers about 6 years ago. My family and I have reached out to Joe, Nathan and Chris on many occasions for all our computer and electronic needs. I have had cell phones repaired and computers upgraded. What particularity impressed me about the store was the honesty of the business. My wife is a teacher and thought she needed a new computer. Instead of selling her a new computer Nathan took a look and told her she just needed some more RAM. Another friend of mine called Joe and asked him about a sale at a local big box retailer. Joe told him it was a good deal, and he could not beat it. That is what I mean about honesty. Unlike many businesses, Joe and his employees care more about the customer's pocketbook than their own. I am an attorney and can recommend Elite Computers without reservation. I recommend Elite Computers to all my friends and clients. read more

Awww man, where do I begin. Went in for a MacBook Pro screen repair on 8/9/2023, and I was charged for a new screen. They told me the screen would be in no later than 2 weeks, since it takes a while to contact the manufacturer and shipping and all that. They would then reach out to me so I can bring the computer in, $150 in labor totaling ~$450 for the repair. 3 months pass and they completely just forget about my computer and the needed repair. I had to reach out to them multiple times to check the status on the screen. They said the manufacturer received the order but never sent out the screen. Screen finally gets there after 3 months. Good we're making progress here. I go take my computer on a Monday so they can install the screen, which they said shouldn't take more than a day. I call Tuesday and the guy on the phone says it's ready by the end of the day and they just needed to run some tests. I show up Wednesday and they pretty much made me waste my time and gas and told me they were still running some tests on the computer. But now the computer wasn't powering on. Initially it would power on, it just had screen damage. They tell me that I need to bring my Mac charger because the computer store doesnt carry any Mac chargers on them. That's a new one lol. I come back the next day with the charger and it's not turning on anymore. Apparently now the computer has water damage. I show up Friday and talk to the guy in charge and they bring me around the back to talk about the status of my computer. I tell them it's impossible my computer has water damage. I only use my pc at home and never travel with it. At the back of the house I notice they have water containers with no lid or anything around their work bench and I can already tell where this is going. The owner tells me he has to call a friend that specializes in Mac's and he'll give me a call back. They finally call me and they tell me the logic board on my computer is failing, it's going to take another 2 weeks to get there and they would put it on immediately once they receive it. They complete the repair on 12/7/2023 and the final repair cost was $751. No apologies for the delays or even a price adjustment for the inconvenience. Go somewhere else. Reply: I never said I didn't want to pay $700 at the Apple Store. In fact I didn't go there in the first place because I did not want to wait for the appointment. Ever since Covid it takes a while to book an appointment with them and I just thought I'd give the local computer place a try. Probably would've been way faster taking it to the Apple Store. I approved the second repair because why not? It's already there and you guys said it was dismantled already. Cheap service will run you more expensive in the long run.Maybe stick to repairing desktops. Happy holidays! read more

Came to them with a computer problem that I had no clue how to fix. Gave me a complete rundown of what it might have been and what needed to be done. Sprung for the emergency service, and it was worth it. Got the problem fixed and my unit back in the same day. Highly recommend their services read more

I'm happy I came to get my laptop fixed. I had many places telling me to replace my laptop since it would cost as much as a new laptop to fix. At this point that's when I came in to Elite Computers. I came in with a HP laptop (that's a touchscreen) screen was cracked to the point of the touchscreen was no longer working. Also my speakers were damaged and sounded very low. Thinking the price was going to exceed to the price of a new laptop, I was happy to let them look over my computer to get an estimate of the cost. To find out they had my parts in stock and were able to replace my screen and speakers for a very reasonable price. I cannot thank Elite computers enough for helping me with my computer and giving me a fair price to fix it. I highly recommend this place for any computer needs. read more

Great friendly customer service and fair pricing. I highly recommend going to Elite Computers for your computer needs. I had a older case on my desktop and had them do a case swap and upgrade my graphics card and also change out my fans. I'm not to tech savvy when it comes to computer parts and they were very helpful with giving advice on what I needed to change and the different routes I could go with my build. Nathan and Joe were both very friendly and made sure all my questions were answered. I'm definitely going back here whenever I need repairs! read more

Elite Computers - Case swap with graphics card upgrade - IT Services & Computer Repair Near Me - Bonita, California

Walked in after reading all the great reviews. Nathan helped me out. We discussed having elite build a gaming PC for me vs buying a pre-built. With the gpu market being crazy, we decided to go with a pre-built. Nathan was kind enough to explain the specs that we should be looking for in terms of Cpu gpu etc. We also looked at multiple pre-built and compared them. Elite cleaned up the software made some upgrades (fans and ram). When I went to pick it up Joe and his team walked me through the system and answered all my questions. Smooth easy and comfortable experience in getting my new computer. Definitely recommend and i will be a repeat customer. read more

My MacBook Pro 2016 15" Monitor stopped charging a couple of weeks back As many of you know if you can't charge a laptop they are a little hard to use ;) I live up in Poway and went to couple of computer stores in the area without a very good diagnosis. I was pretty sure it was the charging port on the computer that was damaged (showed signs of electrical burns) but both places up here were certain it was a motherboard issue. So I looked up Yelp review and found Elite Computers at the top. Spoke with Nathan he said sounded like a charging port issue and bring it in for a look. Once there he said - Yep charging port - $20 for the replacement part. Sold! Waited five business days for the part and after waiting an hour for installation we are back in business. Nathan is very knowledgeable, professional and will take the time to explain things if you are not an IT person. And even though I live in Poway without traffic only 25 min each way on the weekend. Well worth the drive. read more

Great customer service I took in my MacBook they did their best to tell me what was wrong with it and gave me the options to move forward with repairs.

Bought an IBuyPower prebuilt PC in 2021. I recently was experiencing a buzzing sound coming from the radiator of my stock IBuyPower liquid cooler. I brought my computer into Elite Computers not knowing anything about the problem and they took care of me right off the bat. They were probably sick of me asking all of these questions but they were so genuine and honest with their responses. The whole staff at Elite Computers are amazing and have top of the line customer service. After a couple days of re-arranging and fixing, they found the problem with my CPU Cooler and replaced it for a very reasonable price. Now my computer is operating faster and more quieter. I want to give a shout out and say thank you to Nathan. Not only is that man a genius but incredibly nice and a good person! He answered all my questions fully and in a timely manner. Thank you again to the staff at Elite Computers!! read more
