Both ways have their down sides. I used to buy and build. Then I started buying Dells. I have saved some time and maybe even some money. If one of them fails I loose both time and money. Reliability is important to me. I just don't fee like I want to research components, buy them and build them. Maybe I need to revisit this whole thing next time I buy a new system.
I built my first from-scratch system about a year ago. I doubt I saved any money. The main reasons I did it were 1. I got exactly what I wanted, without bundled junk I didn't want etc. and 2. it was fun. If it were anything but an in-home machine I would have stuck with a commercial vendor.
