I know you're not supposed to buy PCs from stores and build it yourself yayaya...I am not so confident with myself in building my first PC. I don't want to do something and mess up my whole system. In fact, I couldn't risk the money loss. My nerves are too shot for it, I suppose.
I tried building the same system on www.CyberPowerPC.com and www.iBUYPOWER.com and it was more money on both and besides that, I heard some horrible things about their service while on the other hand the PC I'm using now came in just great shape and in 2 days from Walmart...
Walmart: $858.00, $9.97 Shipping
iBUYPOWER: $991.00, $75.00 Shipping
CyberPowerPC: 1009.85, $0.00 Shipping
At www.Game-Debate.com I looked up some popular games like GTA IV, COD: Black OPs and Starcraft II and it can play these more than fine. In fact, I can upgrade my graphics card to the AMD HD6870 or NVIDIA GTX560TI without changing the power supply or anything in the future.
So my questions are:
1. Is it worth getting? Is there anything wrong with it I should be aware of? Will it last me several years?
2. How much would it be if I was to build this from scratch compared to the final (added tax) $928.03 asking price?
Thank you for any advice.
