I upgraded from my Dell 8700 to all DIY parts. Why?
1: OEM parts tend to skimp out on the quality of their parts (no chipset cooling, small CPU cooler)
2: Limitations to changes in BIOS (No custom fan curves or overclocking)
3: More performance, plus I can continue to upgrade the processor or install a new CPU cooler without extra modification to the mobo
4: A E S T H E T I C
