“I already had a processor in mind but wanted someone to verify that it would actually work with my motherboard. They checked compatibility before anything was purchased.”

“The CPU and cooler were installed carefully and the BIOS settings and temperatures were checked afterward. Exactly the level of detail I wanted.”

Vanessa T.
