All my desktop PCs were assembled by me from random parts when I was in school. As long as you can read about compatibility between parts online, you can assemble desktop pc without any problems. The only time i bought assembled PC was when I switched to use laptops =)
And yeah - assembling PC yourself gives you opportunity to drop microsoft tax completely!
- thebigshane 16y agoBut also note that sometimes the "microsoft tax" manifests as a discount. Getting a cheapo Dell with windows, at least used to be, just a tad cheaper than assembling a similar spec'd one yourself. But I still assembled my own because it was a fun learning experience and you can focus more on getting a (more) future-proof motherboard and a solid PSU.
