so im going to college soon and have decided to get a desktop. I was going to build my own but then realized that i wouldn't have a warranty like i would if i bought a laptop or a prebuilt desktop. Hating all major brands, i've decided to go through either cyberpowerinc.com or ibuypower.com. First question is, which is better? Second question is, are their prices pretty good for what you get? I've built a quad core 3.0ghz computer with 2gb ram, 500gb hard drive, yada yada, with a 20.1'' lcd monitor, speakers, keyboard, mouse, vista all that jazz for around $1200 shipped. Do you guys think this is the best way to go since with both of those companies i get a 3 year warranty, whereas if i built my own i'd have no warranty on the computer, only on the parts individually.
