I'm thinking on purchasing a desktop from Jetline systems. I'm not asking which one I should go for, I'm just wondering whether or not Jetline is a reputable dealer, good customer service, and their products live up to what they say?

Just to throw in an option, why not build it yourself? You know what you need

I'd rather not go through all that, I'm completely inexperienced in it and find a prebuilt to be much easier on me, even if less cost effective

Personally I would build, but I know it can be a task if you have ever done it. I would build you one if you want, but just looking at those prices, you can build that same (4100.00 machine) for half that price or less.

Chris;
If you want too, buy the components and ship it to my house and I build it and ship it to you. Lot cheaper and better components for your flight sim.

I am in a similar boat and know that it will be cheaper to build my own machine and have done it in the past. The part that I find daunting and confusing is which parts to buy when it comes to the board, cpu, graphics card.

With all the videos out there on Youtube that show you how to do everything it really is a no-brainer to do it yourself. We were all there at one point and made the leap. I helped a friend build his first rig three months ago over the phone and it fired up on the first shot! You can do it!
