I needed a very dirty desktop to be cleaned. I called around locally and was told minimum charge would be $65.00 to $85.00. This is something I could have done myself but I wasn't real comfortable rummaging around inside my beloved computer. Called PC House and they were happy to do this small job for $25.00! PC House has been in business for years and Human Computer gets parts from them and Best Buy uses these guys. PC House cares about their customer base. Everybody else just wants your cash. They are screwing the competition, gotta love that! read more

WILL TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF TOU. The experience was exhausting and frustrating I'm busy at the moment caring for my mom who just had surgery so... We call and explain the problem with the laptop to the owner, Gilbert. He meets us at the shop, takes the laptop but doesn't pop off the back off for a 10-sec look. He hands my son a form to fill out saying that it would be $65. Luckily we pressed him on what we got for $65. FOR $65 he turns the laptop over pulls the back off (screws already removed BTW) looks at the port. Which needs to be soldered back on. IF we decide to have him do solder it back on, that will be at least $160. It is not a complicated task. I know, I have done it before. We walked away read more

Too expensive would not recommend would sell you pc parts thats not even needed also the cable management is bad

Was meaning to write this review months ago but I was past the word limit and gave up, but i'm writing it now after finally having the energy to do so again. I brought my laptop in due to heating issues and *he* cleaned it. It worked perfectly, and he then suggested I should replace the fans and repaste the laptop. ok i don't mind. He ordered the fans and **thermal paste**. Odd that he didn't have paste in stock at his PC store, but whatever. Day came by to replace then he states I needed liquid metal for my laptop(msi rog gu502lu). Odd that he just now told me, but I agreed and he **ordered** the liquid metal. Finally, he did his thing, and i received the laptop. Did i mention i paid for 1 full gram of liquid metal, and paid for new thermal paste, only to not receive what was left? I essentially paid to restock their shelves. Anywho, my laptop's graphics card wasn't working when I got it back. He said i could bring it back, so i did. He took a whole week only to update me by sending a freaking malwarebytes scan when it was a clear hardware issue. I knew something was up. I wasn't having it since I did notice he uninstalled and reinstalled GeForce experience during his one week endeavor of trying to figure out the software issue that was preventing my gpu from being detected. he definitely knew my card wasn't being read, but said nothing. I called him out, he didn't like it and began blaming me, so I took the laptop back and then to a reputable shop. (he at some point towards the end did say it was a hardware issue and to replace the motherboard for 559$, labor included. I was not about to spend more money especially since i no longer felt he was credible.) The new shop told me liquid metal was spilled all over the motherboard. sent me pictures and videos about it. telling me how the person who handled it had no idea what they were doing. messaged *him* back and he refused to take accountability. Kept blaming me, which was slightly funny, given the proof i showed him. The new shop cleaned the liquid metal off my motherboard, and my gpu was finally being detected :). Oh yeah, did I mention that when I confronted him and showed him proof, he tried refuting my proof by sending me a picture of someone else's dusty laptop fans ? He only realized when I commented on it. :P did i also mention that he boldly claimed that the liquid metal wouldn't damage the gpu? (just search up what liquid metal can do) Anyways, I would avoid this place if you can. Most of the reviews here are from people who only have 1 review, AND give this place 5 stars without giving any detailed info on the services they received . It's odd. Find *small businesses* or *family owned* that are reputable. Other places in Riverside charge less for labor anyway. They also probably won't essentially gaslight you into thinking you were the one at fault :,^] Or you can test your luck and hope you don't end up in a situation like mine, lol. || "Your lack of not taking care of this machine has caused the problem not any technician or liquid metal or thermal paste." || for giggles, i am linking a picture of "my" laptop (for clarification, this is the picture he sent to me to refute my arguments. it is NOT MY laptop. he sent me the incorrect picture, which was funny. That is the picture of the laptop with dusty fans) read more

Best in Town! PC House was recommended to me some years ago by someone that I work with. I took my PC to Brian at that time, and after checking it out, he told me it was not worth the money to fix. It was very old, & had many issues. No charge for his honest & expert opinion! Yesterday, I took my Mini Mac in due to a problem that I had after a friend added more memory for me! I was unable to get any sound from the external or internal speakers. I had talked to the Geek Squad @ Best Buy & they said it was $149.99 w/no guarantee that they could even fix it. So I remembered PC House & Brian opened it up, fixed the problem (which was minor) & I walked out happy for $25.00! The shop is very unusual in appearance, but DO NOT let that chase you away!!! All Genius's do their best work in clutter!!!!! read more

Excellent Service -every time I go here ,,,always so Satisfied -doesn't RIP you off -trust his genuine sincerity & service every time I've taken my computer here --You won't be disappointed!!! Thnks again Mike -You Rock read more

I called to see if they can look at my laptop that wasn't turning on, the guy on the phone said to bring it in and it's $35. Brought it in the next day. Walked in, looked like a storage full of junk and dust. Looks nothing like the pictures posted. The guy stood behind a counter and didnt even say hi, I told him I called the other day because my laptop won't turn on but it turned on today. I wasn't even done explaining what I needed to be checked and he laughed and said "well it works now so you're ok" then I tell him, I need a new battery and he interrupts me, continues to laugh and said "go on ebay and look up the type of battery you need and buy it there." And that point it was clear he didn't want to help me so I said thanks and left. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this place. I have a tax preparation business and wanted more things done to my laptop not just for it to turn on. read more

I've bought cables and other hardware here, and Mike always has just what I need for a really good price. About a month ago he rebuilt an old desktop computer I have into a blazing-fast monster for a few hundred bucks. Latest version of Win10, 500GB SSD, all USB ports converted to USB3, I'm happy. And it always tickles me that this place is practically next door to a major electronics retailer that shall remain nameless... read more

My family has been going to the pc house for years. The owner is so nice and always fixes our computers. We were referred to him by someone who worked at Microsoft. Every time I give him my broken computer he takes it and gives it back to me in perfect condition. He also charges very fair prices for his services. Couldn't recommend anyone more if you need your computer fixed. It's actually in the Best Buy parking lot so you can go there and skip the overpriced idiots at geek squad . Also, yes his store is cluttered but the man is a computer genius and I really don't care what conditions he chooses to work in. read more

Mike is so nice. He fixed my computer quickly he explained what he was doing and charges a reasonable price. Would recommend to anyone.

Always great service! We have been taking our computers here for several years. Very honest and trustworthy!

RGB greatness. Shout out to Brian for putting together my dream pc. Tremendous thanks to Mike for all the help.

This is a great place and good price. mike will take care of you and give top notch customer service

Truly happy to have found this place. I needed a place that can fix laptops computers and all sorts of IT problems quickly and affordably this is definitely the place. The guy I used to use moved out of town and everybody else seems to be too pricey. This guy fixed my laptop in 24 hours for a nominal fee I would highly recommend this company especially if you have a small business I need to keep costs down on IT problems. read more

Good place, caring family ppl. Knowledgeable and friendly.

Great service & highly recommendable! Find Brian, he is dependable. My laptop had a profile crash & fixed it the same day & he even took out the viruses present even though I recently installed a AVG antivirus. Got a free spyware too. The cost was reasonable. Now, my computer runs faster & better. Thanks again to Brian & Mike. read more

Amazing! Owner was super nice. Sold me a very hard to find CPU fan for my 5820K Intel i7. They were the only store in Riverside that had it.

Look past everything, don't look down or to the sides. Look at the owner right in the eyes and ask him about what you need. He will help you, give you a very fair price, and you can walk out a happy customer. read more

The guy told us it was thirty five bucks to diagnose the laptop and if he can fix it it would be 135, well, he tried to raise the price a couple of times after that saying that some parts of the keyboards are not functional and he had to do more deep cleaning, it went up to three hundred dollars. Very unprofessional and is money hungry. read more

Great service!! He was SUPER helpful and honored the 5$ off coupon. I finally got my computer fixed! Yay! Thank you guys!
