MediaCenterVideoEditPC??

[CHICKAROO5]

I would like advice on whether I should buy or build my new PC. I want a pc mostly for media center entertainment primarily however, would also like to use it for video editing once in a while.
I have been looking at buying a CyberPower PC, my budget is $1100-1300. However, I am considering building it to see if I can get more bang for the buck. I have only built one pc before but it was a pentium on ATX mob way back in late 90's.

I would like to use Intel i5-750 w/Asus P7P55D LE Intel P55 MB. Also looking at Intel i7-920 but not sure about liquid cooled.

I am wondering if I am just better off buying it from CyberPower, instead of building a high performance system after not buiiding any for long time. Please all comments are welcome.

See if you can get an i7-860 and a P7P55D into your budget. You don't need to spend more than $50 on a video card unless you want to game.
