Dell xps 435
I have seen dell adevrtising the xps for $1,195 and was wondering what would be the cost to build a similiar system from scratch. Here is the specs of the dell xps 435, there is no speakers or monitor attached at this price and what would anyone do to improve upon the system.

I'm sure it would be a good bit cheaper to build a comparable system with better quality parts.
What is your budget? What is the primary use of the computer going to be? We can help you spec one out that may be better suited to YOUR needs then a premade Dell.
