Custom & Gaming PC Builds — Done Right, Done Local

A PC built for exactly what you do — gaming, streaming, editing, or work — and exactly your budget. Expertly assembled, stress-tested, and backed by real local warranty and support, right here in Stony Plain. No shipping, no guesswork, no paying for parts you don’t need.

Why custom beats off-the-shelf

Built around your purpose,
not a store shelf.

Off-the-shelf PCs are built to a price, not to a purpose. That usually means money wasted on parts you’ll never use, corners cut where it counts — a weak power supply, poor cooling, a bottlenecked graphics card — and no one local to call when something goes wrong.

A custom build from Alchemy I.T. is the opposite. We spec every component around what you actually do and what you want to spend, assemble it with care, stress-test it before it ever leaves the shop, and stand behind it in person. You get more performance for your money — and a real local team behind it for years to come.

WHAT WE BUILD

Built for the way you
actually use your PC.

From gaming rigs to creative workstations and reliable business desktops, every build is designed around your workload and your budget.

WORKSTATIONS & CONTENT CREATION

Built for real workloads: video editing, 3D and animation, CAD, photography, and rendering. We build the machines we use ourselves for creative and VFX work, so we know what actually matters under load.

EVERYDAY & SMALL-BUSINESS BUILDS

Quiet, reliable custom desktops for home, home office, or the whole team — sized right so you’re not overpaying or under-powered.

SPECIALTY & MINING BUILDS — ON REQUEST

Have a specialized workload in mind, like a crypto-mining rig or a multi-GPU compute build? We can spec and assemble those too — just ask.
