iBUYPOWER Specialized Advanced Packaging System
packaging The iBuyPower Specialized Advanced Packaging system was specifically developed to minimize problems incurred during shipping. It harnesses an expansive chemical reaction to create an easily removable custom padding solution molded perfectly to your system. This creates an internal cushion for your system to prevent components from shifting or coming loose during the shipping process, and drastically reduces the chance of damage occurring during shipping.

The iBuyPower specialized advanced packaging system is highly recommended for systems with one or more large graphics cards or large CPU cooling solutions.

Why do we charge for Advanced Build Options?
wiring The question of why we charge for these services comes up often. The unfortunate fact of the matter is these services aren’t free. Pro wiring takes a lot of time from our technicians to get just right. It takes time to clean up prepackaged thermal interface materials and spread a new layer, and the specialized packaging materials just aren’t necessary on all systems. Some computer makers offer comparable services at “no extra charge”. The fact of the matter is, they’re forcing you to pay for the services, even though you might not need them. Those other builders really can’t match our value because they’re forcing everyone to pay for services they may or may not need, plus more!

We realize that not everyone may want or need us to wire their systems professionally, and not everyone needs an upgraded thermal interface, so we don’t see why we should force everybody to pay for it. We give you, our customer, the choice of whether or not you want or need these additional services, so we can help deliver the best value for everyone.
