I need a new PC, and I'm wondering if I should buy a pre-built computer (probably from Dell) or build one myself.
I have no experience in building computers, but I'm willing to give it a shot. I'll be using the computer for basic things... internet browsing, moderate Photoshop CS3 use, listening to music, watching videos, and playing current (but mostly old) games; such as Starcraft, Diablo II, Counter-Strike: Source, basically anything exclusive to the PC since I mostly play console games and have a 360.
I'd like to stay around the $600.00 budget, but I can go as high as $700.00 if need be. This has to include everything, I need a monitor and such. Newegg links are welcome, as it'd be easier for me to order everything from one place (unless there's a certain component I need that is drastically cheaper elsewhere.)
