Just wanted to ask the community here - how practical/cost-efficient is it to possibly hammer together a new workstation we need at the office?
I've never built a workstation before, but I've put together dozens of home desktops - and it doesn't seem that much harder to piece together. The reason I ask - is simply because Dell charges +$10,000 for a respectable workstation, and simply browsing through the parts on Newegg it looks to me like I could put the same thing together for $6,000. Tops.
Am I missing something here? Does anyone have any advice or experience with this sort of thing. It has always been cheaper to build my own desktops - but is the workstation market really such a racket?
