If you plan to build it from scratch be ready to be able to troubleshoot ****.
Just get a damn dell and be done with it. It might be even cheaper then building one from scratch.

I have a handfull of friends that have ibuypower computers, and they love em. NOTE THAT YOU WILL SAVE LIKE $2-400 BY BUILDING YOUR OWN COMPUTER.


I'm going to be ordering off ibuypower once SPORE comes out. That game looks so sick.


If you like it you owe me 100 posi points. Deal? :-)
