Am shopping for a home desktop and I need a good desktop that can be use for AutoCAD, high graphics game and good speed as well and moderate price.

I learnt that assembled one will be cheaper but they always have issue with component compatibility as the various hardware component are put together from various manufacturers.

I need expert advice

The problem has always been with the engineer assembling the system. They try to get the low end parts for the job to make more money for themselves.

When you are buying a motherboard for example that should take a Core i5, quad core processor and a dual channel memory configuration, because the chipset of that motherboard is compatible with a dual core processor and the processor slot is also compatible with the dual core processor, they will buy the dual core processor for you.

This also goes with so many other components of the computer. Like the RAM. If they are meant to buy a PC3-12800 for example in a dual channel memory configuration and populate the memory slots with it, they will buy a PC3-10600 and mix them up. These things affect the performance of the system very much when you are carrying out high intensive graphics operation.

If you can spend money building a system to your specification, i will advice that otherwise go for a preconfigured system.
