Which is Better

[Shockotic]

Would it be good if I buy one of these PCs and then on Christmas buy a new Graphics Card?

No, Just build it all yourself, it really is worth it and quite easy. You will get more choice of parts and get better performance for cheaper.

So with that build, I would get way better performance for just a little bit more?
Also, I think I can build it. But if I get the parts and then realize I can't what would happen? :S

They tend to use sub par parts and are still very marked up. My PC cost around what the ones OP posted and is about 100 times better. Build yourself = always cheaper.

Of course it will be cheaper if you build it yourself. If you go through someone, such as CyberPowerPC, you are paying for the company name. Nothing new there. Just saying I didn't go over budget or anything and I'm happy.

Here you go

Bit of a hurried build, but if any of those parts are too overkill then you can change em. SSD is for the OS and a few bits of software.

Also, with all of those parts, would they all fit in nicely?[DOUBLEPOST=1372618253,1372616998][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, with that custom built set, wouldn't I have to spend another $160 for Windows 7?[DOUBLEPOST=1372619859][/DOUBLEPOST]Would it be fine to set the boot drive to the HDD and save a bit of money to get a OS?[DOUBLEPOST=1372621078][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, when it says minimum of 500W power supply (GPU) does it mean for the entire build or just the Card?[DOUBLEPOST=1372628930][/DOUBLEPOST]Another thing. I looked on the case and it said "Fits large 11.5" performance graphics cards" but the graphics card in that list is 12.5"

*If you need to know anything else, let me know what it is*

You're best building from scratch if you know what to do that is, it work out a hell of a lot cheaper and usually 20x better

That's what I'm planning now.
