Building a pc together is easy, it only takes more time at first. the only hard thing are the mortherboard on the tower and the cpu cooler on the motherboard cause both things are heavy but youtube helps (really).

Where do u live??? i live in germany for example and if i know what i want to by i go to prize search mashine (geizhals.at for me). Amazon is not bad; save , fast delivery and prizes are ok.

than if u want a gaming pc their are some pionts u must clear

Amd & ATi or Nvidia & INtel...i prefer Intel & Nvidia

CPU - I would say a Sockel 1156 Cpu like the i3 [[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]] , i5 [[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]] (i would buy that) and i7 [[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]](costs more)

Ram - DDR3 (800 or 1066? Ram Takt) Good manufactures of Ram are Corsair ,Kingston , GeIL and Mushkin. I suggest between 3 gb and 4gb if u use Windows 32bit=3gig if use 64bit=4gig (cause 32bit can only handle 3.2 gig of ram)

Grafic-card. Directx 10 is a must i would buy the Geforce GTX 275 [[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]] (best prire/preformance) or a card similar to it (280, 295 etc)

Motherboard - it must fit to ur CPU (sockel) Asus or MSI are good but u must search what u prefer

HDD - TIP - buy a SSD HDD for ur OS Drive (64 gb are more than enough) these HDD are more expensive than normal ones, but a lot faster and this makes ur System faster. But for Data saving buy normal ones (around 1 TB)!!!!

Soundcard - I would buy one cause the ASUS Xonar DS 7.1 [[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]] does a hell of a job for its prize.

Case - its not so important. But a good case has the power supply at the bottom.
Lian Li Armorsuit PC-P50,Cooler Master Storm Sniper, Cooler Master HAF 922

Power supply - at least 600W and u should use one where u can take off the cable

This PC would Cost around 800-900 € and u have silence for years. well after 2 years u need to buy graficcard for high standarts but that would cost than around 200€ and u have the ebnxt 2-3 years silence

this

a high end graphic card needs lots power also another part with high power usage. make sure it is good enough to power all part cuz some cases here buy a high end parts and use an unsuitable PSU and broke their PC rather soon

and good cooler fan if theres no air conditioner (high work means high heat)

just what i heard ^_^

I highly suggest to build your own as well...my BF and I do that ours always last a looong time. It is cheaper and overall you get a better PC IMHO.
