Although iBuyPower's parts warranty expires after one year, the company covers labor for three years. What's more, the first year includes onsite service, a rare perk for a budget system. Equally gratifying, the company offers real-time online support in the form of a live chat window, something normally available only from big-name vendors, along with toll-free telephone support Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. PT.
