There are many people who don't have the skill and or time to build their own machines. A good system builder will put together a fast, stable machine with quality components. The other thing you can get from the better companies is quality support. There are a number of very good companies out there that offer a proffesional build, top components and outstanding support. The two best in my experience are Falcon Northwest [very expensive] and Maingear. Maingear offers 99% of what you get from Falcon with first rate tech and customer support at a reasonable price point. Alienware is not in the same league as these companies. I have dealt with all and you cant go wrong with Falcon or Maingear. Either will take the time to give you sound advice about system configuration without sales pressure. Also, they will not try to upsell you on anything. Good luck.
