[QUOTE="kormath, post: 60138, member: 4199"] Yep. That's why I build mine. My last one was comparable to what Alienware had at the time but I only spent $700+ instead of the 2200 for their prebuilt. Building your own is really simple now too. Everything is color coded or shaped plugs so you can't really plug something in wrong. Not like my first build where you had to set the board jumpers and primary and slave jumpers and most of the plugs were identical and the boards weren't clearly marked. An hour build out is average with today's hardware. Back then it was build test change a jumper or move a plug, retest and change and repeat till it was complete. Spent half a day my first build lol [/QUOTE]
