Build it yourself, it's more fun.


I've been building my own PCs for over 20 years and every time it's a new experience.

The quality of components has gotten really good.

Caveat: As easy as it has gotten, it's still relatively a pain. It's easy to make a mistake if you're in a hurry or don't know better. If you aren't confident in your ability to figure things out, then just get a pre-built.

What's your budget?

I seated the RAM starting In Slot 4 instead of 1 (or 3/0. I don’t know). It took me way longer than I’d like to admit to get that machine up and running. Wouldn’t even load the BIOS. I think I bought a new PSU (this is like an off the shelf Acer case from 2008ish at my parents’ house) before I realized I was a dumbass.
