Great guy and even better hardware. Its towers are all custom built and he truly does put work into them to make sure theyre the best they can be for the price. If you want the top-top of the line, just make it yourself, however if you want something that can very easily compete and even beat other rigs, this mans the person to buy from. Hes very adamant on his warranty and will help you with any issues you have, plus hell even help you upgrade your systems if you ever need to. Overall 10/10, great guy, great hardware, great everything. The stairs up to his shop are certainly scary though

Found the shop with a Google search for a local computer shop for some a cable/adapter for my PC since I have 3 fans any the motherboard only had one slot for extra fans. Ed was very helpful and knowledgeable for what exactly I needed. The shop is also very nice, decorated with custom PC, parts, and other cool paraphernalia. Would suggest if you looking for parts or cables and you dont want to order online!

Very nice owner. Absolutely insane prices for the PCs. Old, outdated hardware for $1,000+, with little to no options for modern components. Great location for laptop repair, but youre better off with the worst of the Best Buy deals over these custom PC prices.

Visited this local shop looking for a light gaming/professional desktop under $1,000.The owner of the shop was extremely knowledgeable and confident in his consultation whether thats PC parts, set-up, or diagnosis. Even built several custom gaming towers himself (including liquid cooling systems) with some beefy parts from scratch.Ultimately, customized my own PC on the spot with an additional MSI 4GB gaming graphic card. He also added on some complimentary accessories and gave generous discounts at the end. Final price:

Took our computer here to be diagnosed. Ed is the owner and operator of the business. Very professional and respectful, as well as very communicative about what issues the computer was having and his suggestions for repair. Certainly check out this place if you are looking for laptops and other computers, as well as to have any diagnosed for problems.

I ran to the reviews so I can make sure to let you know that Sac City Computer Hub is the best!When my laptop wouldn’t charge I went to another shop that quoted me $200 to replace the “fried motherboard“ As a new business owner I was devastated at the cost and loss of my info. But like the angel Ed ran quick visual check and confirmed it was the power cord and SAVED ME TON of Money & Stress. Thank you again! You have a customer for life!

I had a great experience with sac city computer hub, took my son gaming laptop here, the owner was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable about computers. He diagnosed and fixed the laptop in no time and at a very reasonable price. I thought this place is the best place in midtown/downtown if you are looking to repair your laptop/computer look no further and try this place. Definitely my go to shops for computer repair

I had a very nice entirely custom built PC recently built by Ed. The entire process was wonderful, he is so knowledgeable and precise every computer comes out looking great and preforming excellent. I had many different questions about the building process, and he was able to give me many good options and information about all sorts of components. We ended up building the computer of my dreams, and then some. He most definitely went above and beyond with this build and it came out perfect. I would recommend this business to anyone who is looking to build whatever kind of computer you want if you want it done well. A very much deserved 5 stars.

Came here last week to shop for a new computer before heading to Frys. Lets just say Im super happy that we stopped here first. He built a custom gaming computer for my budget with a small deposit. Asked Ed (the owner) lots of questions and answered them all with confidence. He said it will take about a week to build. He was done in 5 days! Before leaving his store to take my new baby home, he showed me my new computer while it was on. Man! I really dont know what else to say. Im just so happy! I will definitely go to him if I have any questions about computers! FOREVER! Thank you, Ed!

My first experience with Ed at Sac City Computer Hub was a couple years ago when I dropped my HP Envy laptop on its corner, damaging the power button and cracked the touchscreen. I figured it was totaled so I asked Ed to look at it and copy the data for me. I purchased a new laptop in the meantime because I use it professionally.I was impressed with his ability to patch it up and bring it back online. Since I had already purchased a replacement machine, I didnt spend the additional money on replacing the touchscreen. I had a large crack that didnt interfere visually, so I put the new laptop back in the box and have been using the beat up machine since!So now, two years later, the battery was failing, so I decided to go ahead and replace it and the screen. The plan was to give it to my daughter for school but after getting it back, I might be giving my daughter the new one, and I can keep my refurbished friend!It only took about a week to complete the repairs. The machine looks and functions like new and the price was reasonable. Most importantly is the service. Ed is professional, knowledgeable, straight-forward, and friendly! A 5-star experience, both times!

Ed is honest and far. The prices are very reasonable. He explains what hes doing and why. He offers options and makes good suggestions. He also did the work I needed way faster than I would have expected. Maybe I just got lucky with the timing, but he was fast.

My computer went on the blink and I contacted a couple of repair services to ask for help, but Ed was the only one who returned my call. I told him what the problem was and he quickly told me that he was familiar with that particular error code. He then told me exactly what needed to be done and what the cost would be. I brought the desktop in that morning and Ed told me it would be ready the following day. However, later that same afternoon he called me to tell me he had completed the repair. My computer is now working like its brand-new! Ed is personable, professional and clearly knows what hes doing. I highly recommend Ed at Sac City Computer Hub for computer repair services.

I needed a cable that was hard to find and this place came through. At first I got the wrong one, but he stayed extra for me to come back and swap it. I would recommend this business.

I took my nephew to buy a new PC for his gaming videos, and Ed’s service/knowledge really helped us through the process! He even gave us a good deal/Free capture card. I will definitely be coming back to this store from here on out :)From - sigh

I picked up a nice used Dell convertible notebook there and they gave me a good deal. Its refurbished, but looks close to new and so far works great. This model originally sold for $1,600 and isnt the latest, but still is plenty fast for everything but video editing or gaming. For $300 Im happy and will return.

Ed at Sac City Computer Hub is very knowledgeable about computers and its components. He answered all my questions prior to deciding which computer I wanted to purchase and I had a lot of questions. He does a great job of explaining what each component does and what you need depending on what the end user will be using it for. I bought a custom that he built but he also has used upgraded laptops and desktops as well. I recommend Ed at Sac City Computer Hub to anyone looking for computer service or in search for a used upgraded units or custom build computers.

I dont know a lot about computer hardware, so initially, I was worried about dropping my pc off somehwere to have someone I dont know fix it. I came across this store, and after seeing reviews from people talking about how great their experience was- my mind instantly at ease.I took in my computer because I thought there was an issue with the power source, but it turns out the problem was the motherboard. Ed was super helpful and got everything done in a timely manner. He kept in contact and gave me updates so I knew how the process was going along every step.Sac City Computer Hub is now my go-to place if I ever need any help with my hardware. Thanks, Ed!

I was fed up with a laptop, ready to leave it here & pay to have it sorted. The proprietor insisted that I try a couple things on my own and he would look at it if his suggestions didnt work. He absolutely didnt have to do that, could have done the suggested things. himself and billed me for the time. I was so fed up that I would have been happy to pay to fix the issue, even if it was a simple fix, but I followed his advice and he was right. No question about it: He chose honesty over money, money, money. Much respect and gratitude.

I called Sac City Computer Hub today to get a quote about my laptop since Ive been having issues with it and the owner, Ed, answered the phone and was accommodating about what needed to be done. Ed was friendly and pragmatic about getting my laptop fixed right away. One of the best customer service I have ever dealt with during these strenuous times.

I came to see Ed yesterday because my custom built computer was making a really loud noise. In about an hour he had my computer all done and not only that, the terrible noise was completely gone. My computer now is silent as can be and I can record happily on YouTube with no loud noise humming in the background.***I also purchased a custom built gaming tower from him while I was getting my computer fixed. I took the NEW computer home with the intent of selling my old one but unfortunately it just wasnt operating the way I wanted it to. Long story short, his goal the entire time was CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. At the end of it all, he went above and beyond and showed professionalism while providing awesome customer service to a person like me whos far from being a computer wiz. I took a lot of his time but he was patient with me. Not only that, my gaming computer now wouldnt be running if it wasnt for his help the very first time I took in. Again, thanks Ed for the help!

I was looking for a laptop for my new business. A friend recommend I check this place out. Ed was able to show me the computer that would meet my needs and quoted me a great price for it. He was knowledgeable and friendly. I was out with my laptop in 45 minutes. Thanks Ed!

Sac City Computer Hub is a small shop with a huge heart, not only did the owner Mr.Barnes meet me and my family with warm greetings and charisma on the phone and in person He also showed the honed nature of his craft switching flawlessly between conversations with myself, a computer enthusiast and conversations with my grandmother who is completely computer illiterate. Not only did he answer our questions but he also managed to save Christmas finding us a great deal on a lower end desktop for mama and double checking to make sure we had the right plugs and adaptors, even going as far as to throw a VGA adaptor in the bag just to be safe. While he didnt have the exact laptop in stock I was looking for its clear Ed Barnes knows his stuff and is selling at very reasonable prices.From now on before checking newegg or amazon im going downtown to see what Ed thinks

I would not buy anything from this store.Especially since they do not Guarantee Anything.But Certainly Do NOT buy a refurbished computer from this shop.Initially I was sold a computer for about $350 which was not even powerful enough to surf the web. I was having problems with it from day one.I do not remember being told the computer was Refurbished.Personally I felt I was ripped off.Since I had already spent about $350; I returned the computer with the hopes of upgrading to a better computer.I ended up upgrading to what I was told would be a better computer for what I believe was an additional $350.This better computer has turned out to be a TOTAL lemon. Again, I was having problems from the beginning.After about 3 months the wireless modem went out.After 6 months the mouse pad started to freak out, and when I type the cursor tends to jump. And often I can not even Left click anything.Again, I feel I have been ripped off.Do NOT buy any computers, or supplies from this store.You are better off going to Best Buy, or Frys, the Prices are Far better, and you get a Warranty.

I was pleasantly surprised with this little gem-I had some issues with a laptop I had bought online, and he had it fixed in record time and was super lenient with the payment terms. I havent bought anything from them but I noticed a great selection of laptops for very reasonable prices. Now I refer them to everyone I know when they need anything computer related and will go to them myself from now on. It beat going to Frys anyday and that says a lot because I generally love Frys!

Very rare commodity these days! Ed’s understanding and knowledge of computers helps keep older laptops and PCs running like new (or better!) when many would replace them with much more expensive and at times less effective newer models. This is both conservatiion and good old fashioned ingenuity at work...in an age of disposable products, Ed provides some common sense...he’s honest and smart...something that is hard to find in a business anymore!

It’s great to have a locally owned computer shop in this neighbourhood which I believe is always worth supporting- however the catch can often be higher prices than if you ordered online. You are paying for convenience and immediate need of what you are wanting.

I was totally scarred by previous under the table laptop repair…which is why I had to bring my Macbook to Sac City Computer Hub and I am SO glad I did! I got a free diagnostic on July 2, and was informed that my hard drive was crashing… the spinning beach ball of death had turned into the gray loading screen of death after I attempted to ignore it for months (-__-) … maybe years (?). Anyways, the NEXT afternoon my 2008 Titanium MacbookPro had a new HD, Lion OSx, and my precious information restored… all before the 4th of July... at an amazing value!! He could have easily upsold an external HD, but instead recommended Frys who was having a great sale and saved me even more money!!

Worst computer place in Sacramento, I went there to spend 600 on a custom desktop and all he gave me is garbage parts. I had problems when I first got it(blue screen of death) I had to fix that no less then 2 years the mother board went out and the CPU. When I called the guy and told him about it he was VERY RUDE about it and very undermining me .I recommend NOBODY GOES HERE. Take your money somewhere else. Worst place.

The service was amazing. The store owner didnt try to direct me to anything I didnt want, and was very friendly and informative. The prices are decent as well, and hes got win7 on the shelves. Definitely will be coming back in the future I need to.

This happened in August 2017, this is a worst palace to take your laptop get checked. This guy says he will check the laptop problem freely. Truth is he steals the RAMs from the laptops or replace with not working RAMs. My wife took her Sony vaio laptop to get checked. It has 4gb ram and 500gb hard disk. Problem with Sony vaio is screen back cover was broken. She went to replace it. Instead he said some noise coming and leave the laptop here so that he can check. Next day he called said its bad better to buy new laptop.After few days my Lenovo laptop got problem. It has 16gb RAM, and 1TB hard drive.Mother board not getting power. I went to him to replace mother board. He said leave it here and will check what exact problem is. I left my laptop with him without taking note of Ram and hard drive numbers. After few hours he told that it wont work get new laptop.I came home and opened my my laptop. I see that there was a 8gb Lenovo labeled ram and 4gb Samsung Ram. I called him next day told him what was missing. He calmly said he forgot and gave back Lenovo labeled 8gb ram.This seems fishy about my wifes Sony vaio laptop too. I opened it there is only 2gb ram instead of 4gb.Thought of going there to ask him to return RAM.Anyway,This is my sincere advice to people who were going to this place be careful with your laptop.There might be a chances of missing parts, rams or anything from your laptop.I usually dont write reviews. But, I hope my reviews at least helps others to get ripped from this place.This guy is not trust worthy. Please dont go.Waste of your time.
