Just get a pre-made and add a few components (ie: graphics card) to make you feel like you built it. *NM*

Ah. yeah, it was one of the pieces that got replaced. It was probably at least partially responsible *NM*

If you like tinkering, then build one. Quality control is all on you, but it's "yours" then.
