Getting a gaming rig. Buy or Build?

If you have the knowledge to do so. Definately build your computer.

Not only can you get more bang for your buck, but you really make it yours when you build it yourself. Especially if you pick out all the components mostly yourself.

No matter how many computers I build, I feel really good the first time I power it on for the very first time, almost like I gave it life.

So yea, if you have the knowledge build it. If not, it's really not hard to learn... especially now adays you just keep plugging wires in until there are none left or all the holes are filled

Good Luck!

Haha thanks yo, this has been a pretty good experience so far. I've learned a ton about computer components and after looking at the "Deals" at Future shop and other stores it really made me realize what low end hardware they were hawking.

Definitely a good learning experience!
