Is iBuyPower a good deal?.
What's hard about it...that kinda defeats the purpose of buying a prebuilt. Assembly is the easy part. Picking out which parts are good and which parts are compatible with each other is the hard part.
Build it yourself with her and have a bonding experience. C'mon bro!
When that PC turns on for the first time, it'll be worth it. You two can have sexy time together while Windows install.

Also constantly broke down at Dota 2 LANs. Twitch chat called them "iBuyShit"I wouldn't go with iBP. But I'm biased after their CS:GO team shenanigans and people reporting their stuff breaking down at CS:GO LANs.

If you already know how, then why would you be worried about ruining it? I'd say skip the pre built stuff and build your own. What happens when your pc doesn't boot one day due to a faulty ram stick? You have to send it back and wait for the turn around? F that. Replace it yourself.Heyyyy thanks for all the input everyone. I actually know how to build PC'S myself but I'm paranoid I'm going to ruin some part of it and she'll end up with a very expensive paperweight.
I think I'll build it for her via newegg, then get frys to put it together.
If possible you should convince her to buy the parts and put it together herself.
Its not hard, its really fun and it helps you deal with potential problems if you know a bit about how everything works. Its also really cool to customize them and to see your effort and research come together into a capable machine.
Had a completely hassle-free experience with Digital Storm: http://www.digitalstormonline.com/
Had the system for almost a year now, still runs as good as the day I got it, and still runs pretty much every game at max settings. Got a Vanquish level IV.
The one thing I don't get about this (http://ncixus.com) is if you search video cards for "nvidia geforce" it only comes up with like 3 cards and none of them seem to be NVIDIA brand... I was trying this back when people were making the "recommended specs pc" back in a Witcher 3 thread.
Nvidia doesn't make Geforce graphics cards. A lot of other companies make graphics cards around Nvidia's chips. I kind of get where you're coming from, but it's like complaining that "AMD PlayStation 4" and "IBM XBox 360" don't turn up hits.

NCIX will let you pick the parts and build it for $50.
That could work for you if you have an idea of what parts she wants.
Man I built my PC while watching a Youtube video for directions. It's pretty much become an idiot proof process. Do it together and it'll help her if she ever wants to upgrade parts. I used to be scared to try building bc I was nervous I'd screw something up. I ended up buying a $1200 laptop that I ended up selling for $300 because it fried on me and I only had a 1 year warranty. Never again.
I didn't screw anything up but had a DOA Video card mobo and processor when I started building it. The whole process sucked. There's nothing more stressful than having issues when building a new PC.
Building a PC is so incredibly easy these days that even $50 seems steep to me. It's snapping together legos easy. I've heard bad things about iBuyPower.
Oh look, a pre-built pc thread shitted up with a dozen "you can build it yourself" posts. Shocking.
I've always heard good things about Digital Storm.

To be fair, there's not much else to discuss after everybody's already named off the only websites that exist for this purpose.Oh look, a pre-built pc thread shitted up with a dozen "you can build it yourself" posts. Shocking.

It's really difficult to mess it up. If by chance something doesn't work, the parts are all warrantied.
