I like the Sag site. The machines are much more generic than computers from the big box makers. They are easier to upgrade as the computer has more individual components.

I used the online configuration and got a machine similar to SuperG for about the same price. I don't think you can save money by assembling the machine yourself. I also don't think it is very difficult to do. The information we gain on this thread will be of equal value to those who make the assembly themselves or have someone like Sag do it for them.

One advantage of doing it yourself is that you know your computer better. The advantage of letting someone else put it together is that there is a better chance that it will work!

Here's the similar configuration
