I know you think this will work. It won't.
Best thing is to just save up the money, and THEN build a computer. The problem with the buy a part here and there method, is that you have no way to test the parts as they arrive.
For example: Newegg.com has a 30 day return policy. Amazon has similar. If you spend 3-4 months buying parts, you will see that this could cause problems.
If you simply can't manage to "save" the money, and absolutely have to buy with payments, there are a few places that will let you do that. Places that are well known for this, like Sager.
Here is a gaming laptop by Sager (one of many) for example...

I just thought it may have worked. But I see your point.
Maybe I could order some basic parts first? that I wouldn't necessarily have to test. Then save up and buy most of the rest at once and test it then? Just a thought.
Also, I'd prefer a desktop. Really don't want a laptop simply for upgrading. And wouldn't that be more like layaway? Making payments, then getting the computer when it's fully paid off?
