i am going to get a high performance PC. my question is this:
should i build a my own system or just buy a Dell(or other brand)?
i know if i build my own i would be able to get better performance, but what would it cost when compared to the dells?
for example, would i be able to get a computer better than the Dell XPS 600 for a price tag that is less? (loaded dell is $3K Dell home)
when i say "better" i am refering specifically to: the processor, video card, RAM, HDD
i have built a handfull of computers over the last five years so i understand the process and head aches that maybe related to building your own rig, but honestly i dont mind any of that. i would much rather piece together my own system, but i dont want to finish putting together my PC any realize that i ripped my own self off by spending more than i could have bought a pre-fab system with better stuff inside.
