Building your own PC is not only a fun and very rewarding experience, but it gives you the opportunity to choose what you want in terms of hardware and software. Large corporate computer companies will build and ship a PC right to your doorstep within as little as a week and for some that is great, but building your own PC gives you the chance to not just build your own system, but research the parts, learn about the advantages and disadvantages of each component and in doing so it will give you a broader outlook on the PC world and community.
