Well sure, but with a box you buy you're only going to get about two years reliability before things start breaking down. I spent the coin on my rig at home and it's been running for six years without being turned off except for moving and blowing the dust out, and I run my rig hard. Why? Because it was built quality and for success. Building your own is always better.

I purchased an HP desktop and a Dell Laptop about 4 months ago and I love them both. Both have Vista which took some adjusting but paid under $800.00 each because I am a price whore and fought for the prices I paid. Both good computers and work for what I need them for.

when you build a computer now a days you have to really pay attention to what works with what... it's no longer just a collection of the parts that work best for you... that "perfect" video card may not work with that "perfect" sound card... going beyond that... software... the software my not be compatible with the hardware you want. Unless your going to do some serious research... and put the pc through it's paces... jut buy a HP, Dell, Sony, Mac... what ever. ![]() also when it comes to if shit breaks... I buy the warranty... then the stress is on them.. not me... but I back up my shit OFTEN. |

I tend to build my own... just cause I'm a nerd and that's what we do. I always point my family members toward the pre-packaged stuff... Most everyone doesn't need 3/4 of the power the new machines offer... You don't need a sextuple core ultra uber terahertz CPU with 512 gigs of RAM and an exabyte hard drive to surf the net and jerk off to internet porn. My 2.4GHz CPU, 1Gb of RAM, and 666GB of hard drive space is way more than what I need... Well, the HDD's are getting pretty full with porn...
