I would like to find a company that could build my PC with the parts I selected and make sure it is working properly. Building a PC isn't hard, but building a PC when one of the parts is defective, is excruciating and could be a nightmare finding out which part is defective and getting it replaced. That is the part that I would pay extra money to bypass. I think I would buy a new PC if it had all the parts that I want, worked (tested), but didn't have a video card in it. I already have a rather newish video card in my old computer that I could place in the new machine, until prices become more palatable to me to purchase something better. The two things I found worth upgrading on older machines are video cards and the addition of a SSD if you didn't already have one. Maybe RAM if you have less than 8 GB.
