I found this prebuilt comp on sale at Canada Computers and was wondering if it is worth buying over my custom built

The games I mainly play are: League, Csgo, Wow, Gtav and Bf4.

I dont have a real budget but I was aiming for around $1600 and was going to buy my custom built on boxing day

custom built: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/jp2HP6

Tell you what, if you want the best help, fill out the latest and greatest formulation of the needs and wants sticky (hopefully official soon)
To be honest I could max all of those gmes you described at 1080p for like 850-900 canadian (guessing, about 650-700 in american) so you're really doing it overkill, which makes it hard for us to understand how much you legitimately wish to go beyond your needs. ^_^

- Fill in the appropriate form below.
- Please return to your thread (or pm the builder) within 3 days of purchases, as prices may change by as much as $100 between now and then. - Alternatively, post only within 3 days of purchase

Budget:
Maximum you will spend? -
Will you complete mail in rebates? -
If so, may we go over-budget if rebates bring you within budget? -
Do you need Windows Operation System within budget? -
Need a Monitor? / Mouse? / Keyboard within budget? -

Basic Info:
Specific Uses (Programs, game titles etc.) -
Country? -
Will you travel to NCIX (canada) or Microcenter (USA) for parts? (Null if unsure) -

How much hard drive space do you want or need? -
Will you use wireless or wired internet? -
Will you overclock CPU and/or GPU? -
Any special requests or useful things to tell us? (Specific case, need lots of storage, audio etc.) -

Style (optional)
Do you prefer any specific colors for the build/computer case? -
Do you prefer a window on your case? -
*(Please note how picky you will be with colors. Sometimes it's just not feasible to get some colors on certain parts)*

To max your budget I got this:
http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/Jm4y6h - $1570

If you don't want to max your budget with graphics, then I did this:
http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/dMqc99 - $1200

If you wanted an i7, you could do this:
http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/2BN3Lk - $1400

the K version of cpus are for overclocking, so with no overclocking you can save money on Mobo, the cpu and the cooler.
let me know what you think.
