Ive been planning on buy a £1200 ish pc for some time and people been saying why dont you buy parts and build it your self cheaper. Ive been thinking and over the next couple of months i was going to buy parts and build a pc my self. I dont want to buy all the parts at once but one or 2 parts at a time. Ive came up with this cheape pc and wondering if it would sell on if i did build it.

You would sell it but I cant say if you would make a profit.

and why are you posting this here?

you wouldnt make any money from this because people who are looking for custom PCs will probably get it made for what they want/need

Also there would only be the manufacturers warranty for all the separate bits, so no easy solution if something goes wrong for the person who's bought it - so that may put people off.

Not really a good idea,by the time you build the PC it will be out of date,(plus what Rakk said)
so I doubt if you would make any profit at all.
It was my idea to begin with,to build my own PC, thinking it would be cheaper,but after some research,I found this not to be the case.It would only make sense if you wanted the satisfaction of building your own PC.
