I saw that they were running a no sales tax promo so I decided to come in. I didn\u0027t quite know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. They had a very good selection of products and their customer service was top notch. This is definitely not a big box retail store. If you enjoy having a good shopping experience in a smaller, comfortable environment then this is definitely the place to go.

And, the sales people are knowledgeable to help me find the items for me. I found a dual-drive docking station with USB connection to my computer. It is very useful for me to interchange multiple drives and access my data quick and easy. At first, I thought the unit is defective but the sales person showed me how it works.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Central_Computers\/comment\/476961#comment476961","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Central_Computers.jpg","store_name":"Central Computers \/ centralcomputer.com","username":"a4_quattro28","rating":"4"}, "single");)

It\u0027s not a big store and no fancy display in there. However, amazingly, I found the company carries lots of high end products and the price is lower than what I saw from other computer stores. One sales person came to me and asked if I need help. I told him I\u0027m just checking around. And I never got bugged again. I found they do PC\/laptop repair and the price is probably the lowest I\u0027ve ever seen. I purchased some accessories and had a nice shopping experience there.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Central_Computers\/comment\/450808#comment450808","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Central_Computers.jpg","store_name":"Central Computers \/ centralcomputer.com","username":"redhair","rating":"4"}, "single");)

Share review![Share androbe review](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I went to Central Computer at the Sunnyvale location to look for a Qnap TS-439 and was surprised that they actually have these kind high end products in stock. The sale staffs are very helpful and knowledgeable about the products they sell. They answer all my questions and made me felt confident in buying all the products there. I had been to Fry\u0027s and MicroCenter but those places are nowhere near as good to shop as Central Computer. Great staffs, excellent service, products such as Qnap, Drobo, SuperMicro, LSI\/3Ware SAS controller, etc where you wouldn\u0027t find at most retail stores, and best pricing for cables in the Bay Area. I highly recommended.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Central_Computers\/comment\/449523#comment449523","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Central_Computers.jpg","store_name":"Central Computers \/ centralcomputer.com","username":"androbe","rating":"5"}, "single");)

![Share domih review](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"OK, this is not Fry\u0027s, but what does it mean exactly? I have been buying hardware at CC (SF and SC locations) for years and I for example definitely prefer the choice offered by CC for mobos (Asus,Intel) in comparison to the junk you find at Fry\u0027s. I have built a dozen plus systems with hardware from CC and it did happen that I had to return things that were not working. No problems with that. In terms of pricing, CC effortlessly beats Fry\u0027s, almost at the same level as NewEgg.com. Cases, mobos, GCs, drives, CPUs, parts, cables and connectors, mice, keyboards: CC always had what I was looking for. So, on one side, you have a very large choice of junk with sales people who knows as much as my great grandpa, on the other side you have a choice of good stuff that makes geeks salivate sold by people who know what they are taking about and who will say they don\u0027t know if they don\u0027t. If you ask them for a sub-$100 graphics card, they\u0027ll find you one and not try to sell you the last expensive nVidia or ATI whose 90% of the features you\u0027ll never use. If you known what you want, CC is a dream come true. If you do not know what you want (or how to build it), CC also builds and sells complete systems at very competitive prices. I highly recommend the place for both geeks and non-geeks.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Central_Computers\/comment\/449037#comment449037","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Central_Computers.jpg","store_name":"Central Computers \/ centralcomputer.com","username":"domih","rating":"5"}, "single");)

"I needed a very specific monitor and got the runaround from darn near every other online retailer out there. Central Computers had what I needed IN STOCK (so many others inform you that your order is out of stock and back ordered only AFTER you've made the purchase) and shipped it in under 24 hours from my purchase. Calls to their customer service line are answered quickly, no waiting on hold, and answered by someone who actually works at the company and has real answers to give you. No talking to a call center in Calcutta to a rep that can do nothing more than read back the confirmation screen you've already been e-mailed. I'm glad I found these guys and have them at the top of my list for my computer hardware needs. Big thumbs up."
