Which way do you prefer? Build you own machine or pick one from the store, or a branded type from Dell or HP?
Severa years ago, I like to build my own machine, where I learn some news about computer chips and othre compartments. It is time consuming to select the proper one, but it is real interesting thing to understand all the knowledge inside that cold box. But now, I do not have enough time read all this things, I begin to prefer the recommanded branded machines, which has tested good performance and nice service, yes, it is a little bit expensive , but it is worth.

I would never buy a pre-built branded pc such as dell or hp because they overcharge for their computers and the computers they sell for the price they sell them at are not as good as they should be.
In the next few weeks i am going to ordering a pc that i personally decided what went into it. If you were to ask Dell or Hp for the pc i have made they would charge much much more than i am paying for it. There are many people though who do not have the knowledge, time or confidence to build a pc themselves and thats why companies such as Dell and HP can get away with overcharging for computers which can be built for a smaller price.

since i'm not a professional in computers, it will be wise for me to have the assembled one. but i'm keen on learning about it, so that whenever there will be a problem with my PC it will be easy for me to fix it than to take to a shop and give me a high price for the service alone.

yes i am agree and prefer to purchase a branded one than assembled one as in branded pc you also have a warrenty limit and you need not to worry about any problem related to your pc for some days

I assemble my own desktop systems but when it comes to laptops i buy hem from stores. Latest addition has been a dell computer . The xps type, looks pretty slick and stylish.

assembling pc is a easy task. just you need a little knowledge. adn operating system.
assenbling is better in the sence that we can choose and can enjoy the perfect combination we want.
second is that assembled ic more cheaper than branded.

I rather build a PC, so I can understand how to put together and know exactly what componets are in a PC.If one component breaks, I can replace it without replacing the whole PC.But, it takes time to build a PC, and there is no support calls.If I buy It from the store, and it breaks down within a month, theres a warranty on the product and support calls,and I can't choose what components goes into a store brought PC.Now that's expensive. Building a PC is less expensive.
