Would building a gaming computer myself be cheaper than buying one premade?

best gaming computer you can build 2012 image

I love LoL

This is for a gift thats not going to be for until March 2012. I know that's far but i was thinking if I buy parts here and there it would be cheaper in the long run.

Here are the specs that i'd like to have

I know it would have to be a Hex Core.
It would need a PSU of at least 700W
DDR5 graphics card??

could u "build" me a good gaming computer? What are your suggestions and comments?

Answer
I dont recommend a Hex Core Processor if you are into gaming..
a quad is more than enough..

Here's my recommendation for you

Intel Core i7 995X @ 3.60GHz
Nvidia GeForce GTX 580 SLi
Patriot Wildfire HDD
16GB RAM
Asus F1A55 Motherboard
Cooler Master Silent Pro M850 850W

That would be a beast

Thats it.

What are all the parts I am going to need to build a gaming PC?

Ta-Shiki

I have never really done this before. I have taken computers apart and put them back together. I have switched out parts from computer to computer. But I have never actually built a PC. Needless to say, this is a learning experience and a fun way I figured to blow off a $1500 bonus from work. Here is the kind of gaming computer I would like.

I want to be able to play games like Kill-Zone, so I need a computer that can handle the graphics.
However, I also want to be able to play old games from 2003-2006 (If I need to rip out parts from older computers I will).
I also like to download a lot of things on my computer. Like, a lot!
I also like to multitask.
That's about it.

Answer
Ok. List.
Graphics- Radeon 7600 Series.
Motherboard-AMD Radeon 7690.
Tradition cables.
Intel Quad Core Prosceesor, 2012 version.
A decen fan system.
For the casing. I'd go with a dell case.
Sony 2013 Disk Drive All Purpose
Chrome Browser.
An alienware monitor if you can find one.
If not the above. Go with a Dell 2012 24-25" LCD monitor.
Windows 7
