Build or Buy

[cbtech]

Hey everyone need little help. I've been running laptop for years now. I'm looking to get a new Pc looking at a desktop. The question is should I buy one already built or build one? Thanks for the help.

Are you familiar with building one yourself? What do you need it for? If nothing fancy then just buy one off the shelf. Building one yourself with no dedicated video card is still gonna be around 600 bucks USD.

I'd probably suggest buying one. If you're well versed in the gear and know exactly what you want then it's usually a build play, usually you're on your own for other things like OS installation etc. whereas a bought one should be ready to go out of the box.
