I've never actually built a PC but I've changed out and upgraded pretty much everything except a motherboard. I've done price lists and pored over Newegg many times, though. The last two times I've added everything up, the savings I would get versus ordering a custom built PC during a holiday sale was negligible. I'm sure mileage will vary and the plus/minus is highly variable but I've been pretty happy with made to order machines and there is a good chance I'll go that route next time.
