Yeah I bet you are.  I'd be super pissed if I spent massive money on a pc and it didn't work as intended.  

A previous pc which is almost on it's death bed now cost me between 2/3k and it stopped working after a few months.  it was in warranty so I had it replaced but I got lucky.  The parts that made up the pc were no longer sold by the company and it was more convenient for them to replace it using new parts they are selling. I ended up getting it replaced for free by a pc worth around 3k.  I was happy with the outcome but if it wasn't under warranty I would have been super mad. 

That's why you never should buy prebuilt.

My case says otherwise. I ended up getting a replacement pc worth around $1000 more that worked like a dream for years.  If I'd no warranty I'd agree with you.  

 

I also bought an alienware that I only use for work but it works now like it's brand new.  If I'd gone to the effort of building a pc under no warranty and it went fault I think I'd go nuts.  Must be the most frustrating thing ever,  especially when spending your hard earned cash.
