I was wondering if this computer is way overpriced.
http://www.mdg.ca/en/products/desktops/stealth/

I know its cheaper to build one yourself but however I'm unaware and afraid too in case I fry everything =/.
I did however go on tigerdirect and looked up all the parts excluding the OS/KB&mouse(also that kick ass looking case), and seen that it came to around the same price. Any advice is appreciated.

P.S this is in Canadian funds

Wayy overpriced!

You should atleast have high end Corsair ram with that at that price. I like the case though, my dad sells them.

just buy from a company that has a good RMA policy. i've used newegg a few times, out of all the parts i ordered one motherboard showed up DOA once. they RMA'd it straight away.

that way, no wasted money on fried components or getting ripped off by a shop.

yeh moniters add a bit to the price don't they?

building isn't actually that hard, i am learning how to at the minute, and it's quite easy

Don't be worried about building yourself.
I had never done until this one, and all was fine.
I'm sure you'll get a lot of help from the guys on here that know what they are talking about, and you have a PC to use to get help.

EDIT:If you can read and follow instructions, you'll be fine.

Yes, it's over priced. Build your own so you can feel proud.
