The truth is that it has been quite a while (never I think) since you could buy a "comparable" pre-built system for the same price as building one yourself. When I built my last Athlon box, a couple years ago, a high end gaming rig from Dell was twice as expensive and I had no control over quality of memory, mobo etc... Something from Alienware that really was comparable was like 3 times as much. Its not for everyone but rolling your own provides the biggest bang for the buck by far
