OK, I know that might sound like a stupid question, and I know the answer already, but I'm just asking here because a couple of weeks ago I've helped my uncle buying a new PC, here are the specs:
Processor: AMD Phenom ll 955 3.2 GHz
VGA: Gigabyte 450GTS 1 GB
MoBo: I think it was GA-770T-UD3P
H.D.D.: WDC Blue 5000AAKS
RAM: 2X2 GB non-brand-name 1333GHz DDR3
DVD Writer: Lite-On (didn't pay attention to the exact model because there is only one model in my country)
PSU: FSP 500 Watt SAGA ll+
Monitor: Samsung BX1931N
Total cost: 600 USD
Anyway, a couple of ours ago a medio-core technician (in 3rd world standards) told him that he could built a similar machine with 400$, and taking into consideration price differences, 400$ equals about 360$ in global prices (each distributor here can put the price he likes), and now as you can see it looks like if I cheated on my uncle, I just hope that you guys clear this by answering the question mentioned in the title, I'm seeking the truth no matter what it really is, and I'll send the link to my uncle so he can see your posts.
(Take into considration that he doesn't want to buy anything from cheap brands like AsRock)
Thanks in advance and many apologies for the inconvenience if any.
P.S.: (BTW, I highly doubt the guys intentions)
