I'm looking to upgrade the current POS desktop computer I have at home. I mostly use it for gaming so my main concern is upgrading my processor. My current has a 1gb of RAM but only a 1.9ghz processor (Athlon).

I realize I need to find one that is compatible with my motherboard so I may be purchasing a new one of them as well.

Am I better of going to Best Buy etc.. or buying the components I need and doing my best to assemble it myself?

And finally, what is the best site to purchase components?

Thanks.

Go to http://www.tigerdirect.com and search "refurbished"

Newegg.com has some of the best prices out there. CDW is awesome if you are a business.
Also if you are looking for a PC and don't mind a userd one, look at DFS (Dell Financial Services) for used/refurbished off loan PCs that are 1 to 2 year old.

Page Computer is even better/cheaper/faster,IMHO, as we have ordered a LOT of shit from them over the past few years.
