I disagree with richiebee too...
I personally have built my computer, as have i built computers for many other people. In-fact, i will be starting my own buisness next year including computer support amoungst other services...
Building your own computer is really not that dificult. It has many upsides including a better knoledge of how your PC works, you are able to get all the parts that you need and you will know exactly what is in your computer, and you also save money (usually).
My advice would be to do some research and look into the parts/components that you think you want. If you need any advice or are unsure of any compadibility, just PM or e-mail me and i can help you. I would strongly encourage you to build your own PC as it is also a usefull skill ot have under your belt.
And for the rest of you i also encourage you to build your next computer, or atleast do your own upgrades...
also, @richiebee: i am sorry to hear about your lack of support over forums but if you ever feel you need technical support please feel free to e-mail me at
stuvss@gmail.com. Honestly i think that it is a shame that you have been discouraged form working inside your computer, and if there is anything that i can do to regain your confidence i think that it would be worth it...
