My computer was customized in the store but I would like to build a computer myself as well.

For me, I love to build my own. I can choose what to use and as someone said, there's a pride in it!

Building my own is my favorite, but I like the deals of dell etc. I usually buy a deal and upgrade it and that usually comes out to be the cheapest

i have AMD Athlon 3200+, 1Gb mushkin, and a XFX 6600GT 128mb AGP

Building it up yourself is much more fun to do!

Built from scratch with my bare hands. Nothing gives the kind of gratification doing it by yourself does.
And nothing else saves as much money either.

Building my own, ofcourse. That way, I have more freedom in choosing what I want.

i build my computer in my own, i have:
Athlon XP 2500+ 1,8GHz @ 3200+ 2,2GHz
768 MB DDR RAM
GeForce Fx5500 128MB
80GB HDD

Build my own, with lots of research before buying

It doesn't matter if te PC is built by my self or if its factoriced. I like the way i pay my computer. I've have a very nice deal with my employer so i pay the computer before the taxes is taken of my salary. Here in Sweden the taxes is about 33% so then I only have to pay 66% of the computers original price

i like to build my own pc,so i would know what kind of spec would i like/get in term of price and performance i choose

Sort of like if you built the computer yourself

I like to make one. But my brother is always buying the made already PC's and it really bothers me, if he does that. Could somebody help me how to make one? The specs i mean.

I personally prefer "Build It Yourself", cuz den everythin is as per ur specification, depending upon ur needs and not dat wat d manufacturer wants! I guess its d smartest option dese days, however i dunno whether its such a gud idea for those who arent familiar wid hardware crisis', as im sure ne one will agree gettin d rite hardware can b a real pain!

My PC was setup as per my specs cuz i wanted a real GAMING BOX, wid a gud graphics card (nVidia 78oo GTX), 7.1 speakers,gaming mouse, etc.

I am waiting for a bigger display tho!

Build it myself.

There's pride in the box. Also I know each component in there so I'm sure no cheap or defective hardware is getting in.
