That hard to believe, anyway if you plan to upgrade you system by adding suff later get an assembled one, if you would not need to open up the chassie for no reason get a Branded one as you get better warrenty and services, plus sleeker looks, better cabbie with better cable management.

If you are not going to overclock this thing ever then you can consider the DELL (any branded) PC, but if you do plan to oc, then assembled is the way to go.

Aslo if ur ready to take the hassels of RMA ur self then go with assembled as u'll get longer warranty period as compared to branded.
