How much would this cost to build?

  I'm not sure what you're asking.  Are you considering buying that computer used and want to know what it would be worth new?  If you want to build a computer with those exact parts, then it will tend to cost more than if you have the added flexibility of potentially picking different parts that are basically equivalent to those.

  Well that is a prebuilt one going for around $2400, and Im wondering if its cheaper to build one myself similar to that.

  Go punch it up on Newegg or Amazon - you have a very specific list of items, so it should just be a matter of copy/pasting each item into search and adding to your basket.

  As far as the build goes - apart from no optical drive (which may be intentional), and no copy of Windows (also possibly intentional) - the build itself looks good.

  Probably cost nearly half of $2400 to build it yourself.

  Ah, considering buying a prebuilt.  Well, it's a nice computer, but if you can build one yourself, you could do better for $1500.

  I will build it for you for $2390.  Save ten dollars!
