I want to buy a Gaming Desktop. My budget is $2400-2500. I searched net and found two Branded Desktops- Alienware & Dell Xps 420. Liked both of them. But don't like each and every features of them. So will i buy a assembled desktop containing my favourite products or go for a Brand like Dell etc.?
Pls pls rep asap. |

you should build it yourself - its more fun and its cheaper, and youll get to learn how to do it
![]() what features do you want? does this build have to include keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, etc?
