One thing I have really loved about building a computer is you can get more premium parts.  

So many prebuilts will cheap out on the case and/ or the power supply. Even the really expensive ones.  And you really don't have to spend much for a nice case.  My first one was $50 and I think I got it on a sale for like $35.

And it has like 3 large fans, nice build quality and nice buttons.  
I got a larger one this time.  It only has two fans, but one of them is massive. (200mm I believe).
The power button could be nicer but still.  

Meanwhile the ones my parents got from Dell all had one very tiny fan.  They weren't even cheap computers.  

PSU are similar.  

I really miss the EVGA supernova g2 though.  Those were incredible.  They came in premium boxes, had nice cords. It's still considered a top tier PSU.  And the price was great too. :(
