Hello everyone,

I am trying to make a decision on buying a computer, or building my own.
I know buying a premade one like dell would be cheaper, but i find most manufactures dont really have what i exactly want. Also what are some good sites to order computer parts off of.

Thanks
Mike

If you go with dell, expect to pay A LOT when you upgrade later. Dell is over 100% more expensive than all other brands on the market. Read that in a study not too long ago.

If you have the knowledge and skills, definately buy your custom made box. That way you're sure to get exactly what you want. As slantednet stated, newegg is a great place to purchase computer parts! Check out the website and put a box together to see what the total cost will be. Usually it's cheaper to build your own PC rather than buying a premanufactured box.

Good luck :)

I've done some business with tigerdirect.com, no problems as far as i can remember. The problem with dells, and it applies to almost every other name brand, is that failures of proprietary components will cost you more in the long run. when you build the white box, obviously you don't have that problem... any component failure can be replaced with a compatable component... with namebrands you can't swap certain components, such as the motherboard and others depending on the model.

Upgrading presents the same problem, as ThreeD pointed out... some important components can't be swapped...

I guess i will have to build my own, but now i face 1 huge problem.

Im 13 years old, got no job, have no money, and no one will buy any web design stuf or websites off me. I have no way of making any money!!!

Great News,

My friend is sort of a comp wiz and he also builds his own comps. Hes giving me a GREAT deal, for $200 Canadian I will get his processor, motherboar, and 512mb of ram!

And i may be able to arrange a deal with my parents. So things are looking good :)
