Pandemic-Design said:Im aware of this, how can i compete with parting out parts compared to a giant distributor like newegg. He asked for prices for parts, I gave him prices. You dont have to buy my parts. If you want to buy cheap parts seperate, Newegg.com has em for probably the lowest. My parts also include shipping, which can range from 10-20$. I also dont buy 200 video cards at a time like newegg does
My price for a fully built PC is probably the best your gonna get for a custom PC over the $500-600 range. Except for huge sales that Dell,HP,ect.. does every once in a while. A lot of custom PC sellers like to charge $100 for shipping, why i ask...??? Shipping is usually under $50. All my computers include free shipping inside the contiguous 48 states, and still are cheaper than most sites.

Anyone interested in me building them a rig hit me up.
This kid is a joke.
Computergen said:1) Good point, although you don't need to spend 100 dollars for a quality PSU with a good amount of wattage and SLi Ready.
2)Very True.
3)LMAO! Bottleneck...not really..
4)If he has proper cooling it shouldn;t matter.....my case is steel and I use the stock heatsink and idle at 28C!
