can only recommend alternate. A bit pricey at times, but good quality builds.

Build it yourself. I would recommend the tutorial from Austin Evans on how to build a computer. Had no idea before, and this was pretty much the only thing i needed (another tutorial for my special Alpenföhn fan). The only thing where i had problems, were actually the cable management, but with some time (half an hour) i pretty much got everything together very nicely!

Honestly, even though you said not to. i Would extremely reccomment building your own PC. I know Linus, and plenty of other tech oriented channels post great tutorials on how to build your own. It will be a little cheaper, but most of all youll become more comfortable when inside your PC and it will be FULLY upgradable.
