for pre built computers where you pick exact parts etc. I dont want to mess around with cooling and all that and I want it to be a professional clean looking job.

Something similar to cyberpowerpc.com. What is the best deal/value site?

pcpartpicker + 50$

You're always limited to specific parts with those websites.
Watch some videos and build your own, it's far cheaper and you can personalize your build to your own needs/taste.

I've built my own before and I understand everything except installing liquid cooling and exactly how much cooling I would need. I would also love to have the clean look that I know a professional can do a much better job. I wouldn't mind paying a couple hundred extra to have that done.

if you were closer, i'd built it for ya lol
I'd buy all the parts, and bring it to a local computer store and have em do it. They usually charge around 50$ and should do a good job.
Maybe offer em 25$ more to do a super good job, idk. Ive never had someone build one for me for money

Another thing about it is making sure to buy the exact motherboard that would fit exactly with the case (usb port locations etc) cuz all these crazy new cases seem to have ports in crazy places. The led lighting would be cool too and it would be nice to have that done professionaly also. You're probably not in Utah are you lol.

From my knowledge, all recent motherboards fit all recent cases.
ATX/MATX is the standard
but building through pcpartpicker.com will tell you if you have any problems like that

Should follow the sticky (if you havnt already made a post about it) if you plan to buy within the next few days
or we can give you a rough estimate if you plan to buy later

I tweaked cyberpowerpc for an hour or two and I was able to get a build through them cheaper than buying the parts seperate on pcpartpicker. This includes them building it, overclocking it (+$50) added led lights, noise reduction and extra fans/liquid cooling. What do you guys think? I realize I have 2 keyboards on there on accident.
