Okay, I like to point out that I'm focusing on building a rig on demand and good price rather than buying one from HP, Gateway or Dell; i.e. knowing the source of the components with warranty.

For example:

Memory stick has life time warranty from many makers, so a second handed stick is no difference than new.

Secondly, I like to let folks who are not in the inner cycle to be aware of custome built rig is far better than OEMs'.

If I post my current rig it would be considered as cheap.
Never had enough money to buy me a top-of-the-bill rig.
