I still preffer to buy parts. When you buy a PC you get "2gb RAM", you dont necessarily get RAM with a CAS latency of 2-5-2-2. In fact you're more likely to get budget RAM - anything not marketable to a mass market is skimped on, and so what you get is a budget computer no matter how much money you spend.

I'm far too discerning and select in the parts I install, I put a great deal of thought into my computer hardware and how I want it all to work. I'd rather pay extra and get it right then end up with a system that looks good on paper or misses a feature I want purely because it's not listed on the specification sheet, like having a PSU that only spins up at certain temeperatures.
