Prebuilt or Self Built

[Prevail]

I'm currently trying to decide whether to buy a prebuilt Pc or buy the parts for a Pc I will be mainly playing Csgo but I'd like to run it at a high quality and be able to have multiple things open at once
The Pc Ive built: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/f7smMp

If you have an suggestions for a prebuilt computer around the same price but may be better let me know

P.s this is my first Pc and I'm getting my parents to order it for me so if a prebuilt would be better and easier to get please let me know

Wow, good job rounding up these parts for your first build! I would not have done nearly as well on my first attempt. All of the parts you picked are solid for what you need. I will however suggest maybe looking at a skylake build (intel i5 6xxx processor) so you can utilize DDR4 memory and the other perks that come with the 170 series chipset.

As for prebuilt vs home built, home built is better with zero exceptions.

Building it yourself is 100% better if you are up to it, but its a pretty good part list. If you play competitive csgo, if you can afford it, get a 144hz monitor with a good refresh rate something about 1-2ms.

Thank you both and I have one question is there an easier way to order all these parts rather than going store to store?

You could just go onto one site like Newegg or Ncix, whichever one has better prices.
