New Gaming Rig

[Anzekay]

I was saying that, of any premade brand, Asus tends to be the best value, not that it costs less than building it yourself. Seeing as HP and Dell have better name recognition for premades, it's easy to get crowded out by their lower end products. Having specific brands to search for just means easier research. Also, some people might see something close in specs and think it's worth the extra cash to not have to sweat piecing it together. I believe in making as informed a decision as possible before making a significant purchase; it lessens buyer's remorse substantially.

That being said, anybody looking to buy a gaming laptop should look at Asus's offerings.

I actually completely missed that paragraph of yours about Asus premades and skipped right to the one where you suggested to just build it.

My bad!
