Question DIY or NZXT bld for new system

[pivotal]

Hello! I am going to be doing a new pc build. While I’m very comfortable upgrading and swapping out parts of old systems I’ve never built one from the ground up. My budget is about 2500-3000 and I want to get the best system for that while also ensuring it gets built properly. Is there a significant advantage with going with a service such as NZXT BLD? Or would it be much better just to order all the parts and DIY? Also what would be the best system for that budget? I plan on doing a lot of gaming but I also am entering a masters program for cyber security so I need the capability for both. Thanks!

There are a lot of guides out there on YouTube. Really, getting the motherboard mounted into the case on the standoffs and getting the front panel wired in my opinion are the hardest things.

Once you get this done, it's a lot easier in my opinion.
