Ideal for these applications:
Lance needed something fast, because his gaming PC was starting to fail. Although we do not keep pre built computers in stock, we do typically have a few cases, motherboards, power supplies and CPU Coolers around for scenarios in which we need to complete a build quickly. Lance placed his order on Sunday, and by Tuesday we completed the build. Brian tuned the 3080 and 13700K up to the point that it was running about as well as a 3090 and a 12900K. The Phanteks T30 totally gets the job done out back.

Ideal for these applications:
Black Mamba was certainly one of the most exciting builds we ever worked on. The plan was to build an energy effecient and reliable air cooled 13900K and 4090 and have everything working before COD MW2 was released. Although it required making several phone calls and driving to Micro Center to get the CPU, we actually put it all together and optimized it with 24 hours to spare. At the time we were completing this build, it was nearly impossible to get a 4090 or get the i9 13900K. Careful tuning by Brian achieved reasonable temperatures and energy effecient operation.

Case : Cooler Master SL600M
Power Supply : EVGA 1300
Total for Parts and Labor : $3099.00
Ideal for these applications:
Omar's "TOONBOOM A450" is one of my favorites, because Omar was struggling to get his work done with his old computer, and he needed something that was awesome for business as well as great for gaming. We were able to produce a high performance build with top quality parts at a reasonable price point. Omar wanted a 15" internal monitor on the inside of his Cooler Master S600 Case, which he uses for alerts as well as to own the RGB side of customer PCs.

Total for Parts and Labor : $1799.00
Ideal for these applications:
Not every build needs to be super high end in order to be interesting. Building a great all around computer on a budget is an equally interesting challenge, which requires getting great deals on good quality parts. The all Black TD500 with all RGB fans set to Red looked awesome, came in well under $2,000 and was fast with a 12th Generation i5 12600K and a 3070. Configured primarily for gaming, the buiild saved money with cost effective 16GB DDR4 RAM, H660 Motherboard and an 850W Power Supply.

Carlsbad Gaming PC and LSF Workstation Reviews
Hey Mark, runs great! A LOT faster than my previous setup. Whether it's in the viewport, caching simulations or rendering, it is all at least 3x faster which has been great. I gave my friend your number! He is looking to build a rig for gaming and sim racing.
Thanks for the build, played a bit of MW2 and Escape From Tarkov last night, perfect performance — temps look good, and super quiet! It's been awesome so far! Nothing but great feeedback, loving it.
I recently had these guys upgrade my PC (based off their recommendations). Everything is running great!! They were very detailed and they were great about providing updates as they made progress. I'm very happy with how my PC looks and runs! I'd definitely recommend you try these guys out if you're considering building a PC or making an upgrade. Thanks again Mark and Brian!! Awesome job.
The system it is working way better than it ever did before. I’ve had no issues with it whatsoever and it has been a joy using it since you guys worked on it.
I Installed MS SQL server locally on the machine and worked with a database with over 40 million records in it last week. Machine behaved flawlessly! Terrific. Machine is operating beautifully.
I was trying to run AutoCAD on a $4000 Laptop and was pulling my hair out with the lag!!! With my LSF Workstation, I am able to run AutoCAD 2023, Rhino 7, Keyshot 11 and Solidworks really fast and everything renders smoothly.
Brian was fantastic, I had an issue with a custom built gaming PC that I am pretty sure I already knew what was wrong… Obviously you’re hesitant to bring it to a shop when you build your own PCs for fear of being sold something you didn’t need.
I was short on time and needed to get to work so I didn’t have time to mess with the PC much, and needed it operational for a call the next day so I took it in…
Brian diagnosed, confirmed my suspicion, replaced the bad component and fresh installed windows for me all in the same day!
His professional attention to detail was exceptional, and Mike was kind enough to hand wash my filters to clean out all the dust.
These guys rock, and they’ve earned a customer from me moving forward!
I have been putting a lot of time into installing and testing various plugins for Avid Pro Tools. The LFS Workstation is running very smoothly and VERY quietly.
Terrific. Machine is operating beautifully.
