Man a serious reccomendation from me. I am 12 and I managed to build myself a pc. It's easy, and it's cheaper. You can chose your own parts. If you are from USA use Pcpartpicker. There are multiple tutorials on the internet - on selecting parts and other. On the actual build: http://wccftech.com/nvidia-preparing-launch-geforce-gtx-960-ti/
 

Congrats on building you PC> That's a great thing to do.

Not everyone wants to build their own. If you spend more time here you will get flooded with the number of distress calls from DIY builders that have problems.

If you buy from a manufacturer (hopefully a reputable one) you get warranty support, parts that will work together and even some technical support. On top of that, for many components, manufacturers get steeper discounts in parts and the operating system and some of those savings are passed on to consumers.

I often think that under US$ 800, there is no sense in DIY PC building, unless you want a really specific configuration/

The ABS system seems like the better option due to the included GTX 960, my recommendation is to build your own computer, knowing that every component within your system is quality, gives me piece of mind personally, I understand that not everyone wants to do so, but If you have considered it and are dettered due to risk, videos on YouTube will walk your through the process, it literally is plug and play. By building your own, for the same price, you are able to get on the skylake platform, including DDR4 and a GTX 960 ATLEAST.
