Do not buy from iBuyPower. They are a well-known bunch of con artists, whose usual MO consists of selling shitty computers built from poorly refurbed parts, then refusing to do anything about it when your shiny new shitty computer stops working six weeks after it arrives.
What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.
