Geek question - for a PC only:
is it worth it to learn how to build my own computer and snap together the parts, or should I just buy a computer?

Anyone suggesting a mac will be rebuffed with "As a noncomformist, I refuse to invest in a monopolistic enterprise based solely on cute colors and rounded corners."

Pain in the ass to maintain. Doesn't save a significant amount when all is complete. No warranty. If you're a tech keep that like to download and check for patches, why your sound card doesn't work in the middle of a game, or tweak things at 02:00--then build your own.

...and yes...I say this because my last PC was a Frankenstein PC, and it proved a pain to keep working with the new software and when a component fried...no support to repair. Buy a new machine.
