Review is coming from the perspective of a computer person.Tldr: it should be named vape extreme. As the computer part of this business is practically nonexistent and u should just go to bestbuy for all ur computer needs.because the clerk doesnt know anything about computers.Do not waste ur time coming here.I think i saw like 1 shelf of computer parts, and while they were all top shelf parts 30xx 40xx series and probably some newer processors and ddr5 ram.But the shelf is in the back, behind the counter, it does not appear that youre able to go browse it yourself.To further concrete this belief the grey haired old man basically stopped us at the door asking us what we wanted.When i told the fellow i wanted a tube of thermal paste for my computer processor.He went on a 15minute rant about how 1. Thermal paste is so 20yrs ago and obsolete.2. Told me to use something called thermalized rubber compound??? On my computer processor? He recommended covering it in rubber? An insulator? So my cpu would overheat and fry my entire computer??3. Tried to mansplain that if my processor has thermal paste already on it, to not take it off...... EVER!! Because what it does is its like bondo is melts and fills in the gaps, just no. Thermal paste kinda jellifies itself when exposed to constant heating and cooling periods, reducing its efficiency and should definitely be changed out every couple years, if not sooner.So long story short just went to BESTBUY. Where not only did they have the thermal paste i wanted. BUT THEY HAD AN ENTIRE DISPLAY OF LIKE 3-6different kinds of thermal paste from various brands and price points to try.Because what thermal paste is, is a heat conductor, that helps ur cpu transfer heat to the cpu cooler.But i mean, if ur coming here for vapes? Ur probably in the right place, from a glance it appears the store is. 95% vape products. 5% over priced very expensive very slim selection of pc components.Word of advice, ur in the ghetto, ur on greenbrae and 4th street. No one here is spending close to 1000 dollars for a 30xx or 40xx series gpu, when their mortgage for their house is that much.

Great wisdom here. The manager is always willing to talk through things before unnecessary purchases. Shop had been there since 1999, shows strength and great customer service. Rates are very manageable.

Went in and asked a couple questions about a desk top i have, dude was VERY condescending and snarky. I dont know if its because Im a woman or Native, or both. Avoid this location if you can. I wont give someone like that my $.

I've been coming here for 9 years and I can't believe I've never written a review! Tom and Marta are the best! They sell high quality juice, vape supplies are affordable, they have a ton of knowledge, and they are very friendly!

I've been going to Computer Extreme for 16+ years. Tom has built me 4 computers over the years and undone my self induced screwups. Every single one of the computers is lightning fast and stellar compared to what you can buy in the marketplace in every aspect. He is literally a GENIUS in many areas, not just computers. He has turned me on to all kinds of free software, educated me on use, security and plenty of other ventures. He and his wife Marta have spent endless time helping me with every interaction; she's an absolute doll. Before I do anything, I contact them first. They are extremely professional, kind, humble and easy to work with. Great conversations, never rushed and will go out of their way to set you up. Tom has saved me thousands over the years, never looking for a quick buck, rather the contrary. Honest, genuine people, business and 100% legit. I have even called Tom for help with a store bought computer of my parents out of state and he's gone out of his way to get me through issues. THE BEST!!The Broussard's

I went in because they are my most local computer repair place. Their window claims "REPAIRS" so... when my brother in law fixed my broken iPad screen but I got it back with the button not flush with the glass... I popped in to see if they could help. The first question I was asked was "how much money are you willing to spend?". When my answer was "as little as possible" I was THEN informed that it would take a few hundred and it didn't matter anyway because they can't touch apple products. So... which is it? Was it that I wasn't willing to spend the money, or is it that you aren't allowed to touch apple products? I have a funny feeling if I had answered the first question correctly, I could have gotten my button re positioned. Maybe that sits well with some people, but, not with this person. I feel that any level of untruthfulness makes any business unworthy of my money. If I had said "whatever it takes" would they have been able to work on it? If there was never a possibility of getting it worked on, why would the subject of money be the first question? Shouldn't the first thing out of your mouth be "sorry, we are prohibited by proprietary law from working on apple products" To me... that says shady. To me that's enough to never darken their door again.

I've been shopping here for years.I get my Vapes and juice here. Id never go anywhere else. Marta and her husband own the store, and are experts on vaping, have their juice made in a Medical Lab, and make sure you know the safety and use of the products before you buy. Such a friendly atmosphere here.Just go in say hello and ask about their products.

In surprised the rating of this site/store is "only" 3.8!Maybe I am not on the correct site. I'm trying to rate the "vape shop," not the "computer side/store." Sooo, for the"vape shop," I rate it "5 STARS" ***** And without hesitation! Not only are their products awesome, but the owners are great, Tom's wife is one of those people that you are instantly drawn towards, because it's apparent when you meet her, that she is a GOOD PERSON! And that in itself is rare to find. ????? Lori
