Is this a pre-built computer or simply a kit of parts?

If it's a ready made computer, check out a few other suppliers to see if they have similar systems or can match the build exactly.

There's no mention of an Operating System. Unless you're using Linux, you may have to factor in the cost of a Windows license if it's a kit of parts.

Yes it's ready made, cheers thank you.

The 3 main components of this rig come out at $1400 and priced at Amazon where almost assuredly one could do better, price wise.

This seems to be VERY steep for the build specs, although admittedly I did not add all the components together. I just have a hard time seeing the rest of it be +$1600 (and not correcting for currency)

Is there a reason you will not consider building yourself?

I'm really not confident of building my own I'm a complete newbie in this regard

Putting together a PC is FAR easier than it ever has been. If you can comprehend what you read and see, not only does the motherboard manual pretty much spell it out, there are hundreds upon hundreds of good video how-to out there as well. IMO the harder part can be parts selection in reference to performance and fitment. Even with that, a lot of the YT creators have build of the month features where you can do exactly what they did parts wise.

What really stinks putting your own together is when/if it doesn't work right off the bat. At least with a pre-build you paid for that aspect to be someone else's problem.

What will be the primary uses of your new PC and if gaming is one of those uses what is your resolution?

What will be the primary uses of your new PC and if gaming is one of those uses what is your resolution?

Yes it's mainly gaming, I use a 50" LG TV really good resolution, I'll have to check what it is when I get home, prefer the bigger screen I find it more immersive.

Call around to local mom & pops PC / laptop repair shops and find one that will build your PC for you if you bring them down the components. This way you know exactly what is going inside your case. You're looking at less than $200 if I had to guess for them to build it.

For whatever reason this RAM is showing out of stock on PC Partpicker. Add it to this build.

That's brilliant thanks for that, it definitely looks better value this way, there's a hop just up the road from me that could that together, that graphics card seems alot better too
