So, I've finally picked out all my parts, but here's the thing: I have zero clue how to actually build a PC. I don't want to go poking around and risk frying something expensive, so I'm thinking about just buying a pre-built instead. My big worry is whether I can actually get a machine worth the money without getting ripped off by some overpriced boutique builder.
Hey everyone!
I’d love to get some thoughts on a gaming PC I'm looking at. I'm thinking about spending up to $3667 on a rig. Since I don't really know how to build one from scratch, I'm planning to just pick up a pre-built system. Does this look like a good deal for $3533 😕? Thanks in advance!
