Question Custom, Whitebox Or Band Name Bundleing

Is it smarter to buy and custom pc than rather buying an name brand pc i see these name brand pcs such as Dell, HP Etc. and they offer 'Bundle Deals' With Monitors up to $600 - $800 for pc and the custom pc offers better performace it seems like and higher Processing power for less but u dont get an OS or Monitor but or the custom built pcs just as good if not better? What Would You You're Self Rather have? All in all im just looking for advice on what option would be best. one of my concern is the custom pc dont come with monitors and if an old monitor would be able to work with them.

Default Re: Custom, Whitebox Or Band Name Bundleing

I build, personally.
I like to have control of component selection
I feel you get a longer-lasting, better running product.
You DON'T get a harddrive cluttered with useless junk software.
You have full-versions of all your software programs-- no useless "restore discs"
You pick our own firewall/antivirus so you know what you are getting.

Older monitors can work with newer machines--to a point. I have bought refurbished CRT's a few times-- if you insist on a flat-panel it gets a bit expensive-- but even those have come down.
