Building is cheaper.../shrugs...also is more interesting and sometimes frustrating.

Can you wait ?
AMD annoncing new FX-53 and NVidia coming out with new graphics cards in the next month or 2.
End result, more bang for hte buck.
If you want to buy now, look at Dell. They have awsome prices (sub 500.00 range) for reasonable systems. You might end up upgrading the graphics card, but once again that can wait too.
