Re: [Windows 7] Build my own or buy pre-built?
Is the purpose of your thread for advise and ideas, or is it meant to be a type of poll for fun? It will help knowing the reason for it so that I (we) can respond accordingly.
As for me, I will always assemble my own. If you want a bargain basement computer, yeah, factory can't be beat, but for an enthusiast or gamer, factory just won't come close in quality, features, and price to self built.
It's more fun shopping for the parts and putting it all together in my mind than having something with a weaker power supply served on a platter to me, I am just not that guy.
As far as brands, too many to list, too general a question to reply to without my response becoming way oversize.
I recently built a system based upon a Gigabyte board for my roomate that is darned nice for the price.
