So I was thinking of saving for a pc... and seeing as I have pretty much no experience building pcs and am very paranoid that I'd break something if I tried, I was thinking of purchasing a prebuilt pc...

Before you go crazy and say that I should build it myself and how it will cost more to buy prebuilt... hear me out.. this combo comes with a screen keyboard and mouse + a warranty \http://www.ibuypower.com/Store/Intel-X99-Core-i7-Configurator

If it comes with a 144Hz 4K monitor G-Sync then I will buy it, other than that it's just a picture. Don't trust until you read specs

Some vendors will build a system for you for a small fee.

 

NCIX is one I know of. Just add the parts you want to the shopping basket and then add http://www.ncixus.com/products/?sku=7842.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
