Have a look around and run the store past us before you buy the PC. They will be able to provide the proper manufacturers warranties (as pctek described). There is ONE disadvantage, which is that with a Dell PC you get next-business-day onsite service, wheras most smaller computer builders will require you to return the PC to them. Then again, there's less chance of it breaking in the first place. |

Where should I look to get a PC like this from? my friend said he wants it prebuilt, not in parts. Note: BTW the PC is not meant primarily for gaming. |

Try PBTech, Ascent or virtually any PC shop online which is reputable (you can ask here which ones are), call them up or go to their website, choose your parts and thats it. |

I am an independent and not given to send people somewhere else. Dell used to use reasonably adequate componentry, even today their LCD screens appear to be quality, but I cannot say the same for the motherboards I have had to work on from their recent manufacture. |
