[SOLVED] Should I buy a prebuilt PC this time?

[TrueGaming11]

I built multiple PCs before, so that's not a concern. I just I want to avoid the hassles of building a PC especially since I live in a 3rd world country where ordering and RMA'ing parts is extremely difficult. Also, money isn't a concern, I can pay up to $2000. My concern with these prebuilt PCs is the quality of the parts.

Are there any reputable brands that offer high end PCs with high quality parts?

Think of it this way. If you purchase a prebuilt PC and a component isn't working when you get it, you still have to RMA it and instead of shipping one small part, you have to pay shipping for the entire PC.

They can be a hassle-free solution, sure.
But 'offering a high end PC with high quality parts'? No, not all the parts will be. They cut corners too. Most notably:
-Cpu cooler: Offering a 120mm AIO on a 9900K? Seriously?
-Motherboard: Cheaper mobos, which likely aren't ideal for overclocking, if the user chooses to do so.
-Power supply: They're adequate for the parts they're being shipped with, and nothing more.
-Case: This isn't really an area that they cut corners, per say, but... prebuilts have some of the WORST case designs I have ever seen. Too many of the trending form over function types which probably sell like hotcakes...

And of course, the legendary assembly quality:

FIXED!! PSU pins weren't plugged in all the way. Hey guys, I'm trying to help my buddy out who got a brand new PC from iBuyPower (he's emailing them too, but their support is slow so I'm trying to get as much support as possible) At first, he thought that that monitor he got was broken...
