I understand that building it yourself is the best option most of the time, but iBuyPower is actually having some great deals for Christmas time. I was wondering if this would be worth the price or if they are charging too much because I have come into the money and am ready to get my new PC.

Final Price: $1304 USD
(it also comes with anti-virus and some free games if that makes a difference)

Please don't give any biased opinions like "Build it yourself!" just for the sake of building it. I am not against it at all and I'm just looking to see what is the better deal. I tried adding up the same parts on pcpartpicker.com and don't really see a difference in pricing, and honestly it would be nice to just arrive on my doorstep completely made.
Thanks.

for the parts no there not killing you. your looking at 1000-1100 for parts then 100 for os and some for labor. for your build swap out the no name power supply for a 750w cosair or sesonic or seasonic rebranded unit. gaming for long long times put a lot of heat stress on parts. your better off over sizing your power supply by 100w or so. having a no name unit or a power supply that near the max load of the gpu/cpu when gaming...you can get lock ups or bsod or reboots.

Thanks.. I bumped up the Power Supply to 850W and now the price is $1347 USD. I now plan on buying it considering its only a small price increase for a lot easier time on my end.

Thanks, almost forgot. Is there really a big difference between built in and USB? I just found my USB one from around a year ago and am hoping it doesn't cause a huge difference until I can set up an ethernet cable somehow.
