So $100-120 for a company to build the computer for me plus give an extra layer of warranty. I haven't built a computer before, soo... good deal or not?
well, all the parts have at least one year of warranty on them anyhow XFX gpu's have double lifetime, some mobos have either 3year, 5year or lifetime warranties, cpu's usually 3 year, memory is usually lifetime, psu's are usually around 3-5years warranty.

Dont skimp on a power supply,if it fails, it usually takes out other components alongside it.
