buying complete gaming pc's seems a waste of money, as you might get more value by building one yourself.

rvdlaarI thought this for a long time, but getting someone like CyberPower to build a custom machine makes a lot of sense to me these days. The price isn't significantly higher, but you get the piece of mind of a warranty. That said, my personal build has lasted me over 8 years now. But it's being retired in favor of a CyberPower custom.

RWDignityWhen it comes to gaming PCs if you are worried about price you probably aren't getting a real gaming machine.

rvdlaarJust imagine how someone who has never even opened a pc case feels. It's absolutely relevant, you don't tell the average person wanting their first car to build it. It's the same with someone wanting their first gaming pc, we want to lower the difficulty level And ease of entry into pc gaming.

rvdlaarNo doubt self built systems are the way to go, you usually though not always get better parts and you know the machine in a much more personal way. When something's go's wrong on a rig you built you have intimate knowledge of the guts in the rig and drivers. I agree completely but for new to pc gamers or those with no technical skills I think pre built is the way to go.
