Today I looked up the prices for all the components i'd need to build myself a brand new work computer. Then i looked at hp's version of the computer i was building and it was nearly 100 dollars cheaper. How does hp make their computers so cheap? Do they cheap out on parts they dont specify on such as motherboards, psu's and hardrives? Or are they really the better deal? Here's my build vs the hp computer.
Intel Core i3 4130
windows 7 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
4 gb ram.

Corsair Carbide Series 400R

ASRock H87M Pro4 LGA 1150 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Western Digital 1tb hard drive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA2W0...
Corsair 420w psu http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
And here's the hp computer: http://shopping.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Desktops/HP-Pavilion/E6S58AV?HP-Pavilion-500-200t-Desktop-PC&jumpid=ba_r329_hhocse&aoid=44661&003=6663635&010=E6S58AV#ABA&ci_sku=E6S58AV#ABA&ci_gpa=pla&ci_kw=
Is my build worth the extra money, or should i buy the hp? Which will last longer, perform better, and be more reliable.
