I'm looking to buy a prebuilt pc, it would be my first gaming pc.
I thought about building one but in all honesty, I just don't want to (next time I will). My budget is roughly 1200$, I'm looking for advice from.... I guess a seasoned pc gamer.
I don't care for VR and the games I will play will be primarily overwatch and paradox strategy games. Thank you in advance.

Honestly buying one is the only viable way of getting a mid to high end PC with the GPU market so messed up thanks to miners. Xidax has pretty good prices and although a newer company ive heard good things. The best way to see if you are getting a good deal is to try and price out a computer as you would build it yourself then see how much more the company is going to charge you, but if it includes a good warranty factor that in as well.
